Rail Transportation Mr. Speaker, for over 40 years my constituents in Castlegar, Blueberry, Genelle, and Rivervale have been able to sleep without being disturbed by trains at night. However, now CP has begun to run night trains without prior warning. The community has made its opposition very clear

Agriculture committee Why don't we go through the rest? I have Mr. Atamanenko who wants to intervene. It would be up to us as a committee whether we wanted it to be part of routine procedures or not. Mr. Atamanenko.

Finance committee I call meeting number one back to order. Colleagues, we will return to the proposed motion by Mr. Saxton. Is there any further discussion on this motion? I had Mr. Atamanenko and I had Mr. Keddy. Mr. Atamanenko, go ahead, and then we'll go to Ms. Nash.

Canada-Korea Economic Growth and Prosperity Act Mr. Speaker, I would like to thank my colleague for his comments. As members probably know, his riding borders mine, and we work together on a number of issues. I would just like to get a straight answer, if I can. We have brought up investor state rights, and I am hearing from

Canada-Korea Economic Growth and Prosperity Act Mr. Speaker, the member mentioned mining, and I would like to reiterate what he said. We have some real success stories in the area that we serve. Certainly the mine in Princeton, the copper mine, is a success story. I have had a chance to visit it. It is a good corporate citizen

Canada-Korea Economic Growth and Prosperity Act Mr. Speaker, my colleague mentioned in her speech that we on this side tried to introduce some amendments at committee. I am not sure if I heard correctly, but I think she used the word “sabotage”, which did not quite make sense to me. One of the amendments we tried to introduce

Procedure and House Affairs committee The problem I have, Mr. Dion, is that because my riding borders up against Alberta, there's only one way I can go. If the boundaries commission decides to make the riding larger, I have to go west. To me, to bring in Sicamous, as Mr. Atamanenko has suggested, would

Agriculture committee Thank you very much, Mr. Boehm. I'll ask you, committee members, to identify who you want to direct the questions to, as we have someone on video and he can't see who you're looking at. In our first go, we have Mr. Atamanenko, please. You have five minutes. I will keeping our

Agriculture committee Thank you very much, Chair. My first question is for you, Terry, over in Saskatoon. By the way, thanks to all of you for being here. It's always a pleasure to be back on the ag committee with my honourable colleagues.

Agriculture committee So much for the mushy stuff. We'll get down to business now. One of my reasons for existence around this place, as most of you know, has been to look at things through the lens of food sovereignty and the ability for us to control our food supply. I've often spoken out against t

Petitions Mr. Speaker, there are 200 names of citizens from Kamloops, British Columbia on this petition. The petitioners are calling for us to adopt legislation requiring all genetically modified products and ingredients to be labelled as GMOs, thereby allowing consumers to make informed

Military Contribution Against ISIL Mr. Speaker, we seem to pick and choose. We did not do anything in the Congo, where five million people have been slaughtered under conditions that are just as atrocious as, if not even worse than, what is happening right now. We have not gone into other areas where we could have
October 7th, 2014House debate
Military Contribution Against ISIL Mr. Speaker, that is a good question. What we are debating in the House is a motion to go either one way and start bombing attacks or to change that part and say we will transport weapons to those who need them. If the government motion passes today, it will put in regulations.

Military Contribution Against ISIL Mr. Speaker, I am very happy to share this time with my hon. colleague, the member for Skeena—Bulkley Valley. As the Leader of the Opposition stated in this House: There is no more important decision that we make in the House, no more sacred trust for a Prime Minister, than s
