Budget Implementation Act, 2024, No. 1  Motion No. 117 That Bill C-69 be amended by deleting Clause 307. Motion No. 118 That Bill C-69 be amended by deleting Clause 308. Motion No. 119 That Bill C-69 be amended by deleting Clause 309.

Indigenous and Northern Affairs committee  For this reason alone, Siksika supports Bill C-61 with respect to the right of every first nation to their own position on Bill C-61. Having said that, I need to address the consultation process on the bill. We didn't think it was perfect.

Indigenous and Northern Affairs committee  The bill aims to address long-standing issues of underfunding and regulatory gaps that have resulted in inadequate water infrastructure on first nations' land. These gaps have contributed to social and health disparities in first nations communities, so I suggest that a separate autonomous authority be the oversight of what's happening across the country, and none of that is in this bill.

Indigenous and Northern Affairs committee  However, there's still a serious funding issue with the bill. There will be a two-tiered level of access to the $6 billion in water infrastructure funding. The 271 nations under the class action will have access to a binding third party resolution process.

Referendum Act  moved for leave to introduce Bill C-408, An Act to amend the Referendum Act. Mr. Speaker, it is an honour to put forward this private member's bill. This private member's bill seeks to amend the Referendum Act. We rarely use referenda in Canada.

National Livestock Brand of Canada Act  I hope all members will support this bill and the recognition that it brings. (Motions deemed adopted, bill read the first time and printed)

Telecommunications Act  (Bill read the second time and referred to a committee)

Fairness for All Canadian Taxpayers Act (measuring the tax gap to fight international tax evasion)  moved for leave to introduce Bill S-258, An Act to amend the Canada Revenue Agency Act (reporting on unpaid income tax). Mr. Speaker, it is a pleasure to rise in the chamber to introduce a bill from the Senate, from Senator Downe.

Criminal Code  I therefore rule that the order for consideration at report stage of Bill S-224, an act to amend the Criminal Code regarding trafficking in persons, be discharged and that the bill be dropped from the Order Paper. (Order discharged and bill withdrawn)

Petitions  The community of Swan River is overwhelmed with alarming levels of crime because of the Liberal government's soft-on-crime laws, such as Bill C-5 and Bill C-75. Jail has become a revolving door for repeat offenders, as Bill C-75 allows violent offenders to be in jail in the morning and then back on the street the same day. Bill C-5 allows criminals to serve their sentences from home.

Indigenous and Northern Affairs committee  Of course, more needs to be done. I think you all can understand that when you look at the bill, at the history and at where we're going.

Business of the House  moved: That, notwithstanding any standing order, special order, or usual practice of the House: (a) in relation to Bill C-26, An Act respecting cyber security, amending the Telecommunications Act and making consequential amendments to other Acts, the report stage motions in amendment, standing on the Notice Paper in the name of the Minister of Public Safety, Democratic Institutions and Intergovernmental Affairs, be deemed adopted on division, and the bill, as amended, be deemed concurred in at report stage with further amendments on division and deemed read a third time and passed on division; (b) Bill C-40, An Act to amend the Criminal Code, to make consequential amendments to other Acts and to repeal a regulation (miscarriage of justice reviews), be deemed read a third time and passed on division; (c) Bill S-6, An Act respecting regulatory modernization, be deemed read a second time on division and referred to the Standing Committee on Industry and Technology; (d) Bill S-9, An Act to amend the Chemical Weapons Convention Implementation Act, be deemed read a second time and referred to a committee of the whole, deemed considered in committee of the whole, deemed reported without amendment, deemed concurred in at report stage and deemed read a third time and passed; (e) Bill S-16, An Act respecting the recognition of the Haida Nation and the Council of the Haida Nation, be deemed read a second time on division and referred to the Standing Committee on Indigenous and Northern Affairs; and (f) following Routine Proceedings later today, the House shall stand adjourned until Monday, September 16, 2024, provided that, for the purposes of Standing Order 28, it shall be deemed to have sat on Thursday, June 20, and Friday, June 21, 2024.

Indigenous and Northern Affairs committee  The AFNWA supports water and waste-water regulations, as a regulatory framework supports operational and design conditions for the AFNWA. However, regulations developed under Bill C-61 must be met with adequate funding. Subclause 27(5) states that the minister “must make best efforts” to begin consultations on a funding framework within six months of the section coming into force.

Committees of the House  Speaker, I rise to present, in both official languages, the 19th report of the Standing Committee on Industry and Technology in relation to Bill C-352, an act to amend the Competition Act and the Competition Tribunal Act. This was, members will recall, a private member's bill from the leader of the NDP. The Bloc-Liberal coalition proceeded to delete every clause, including the apparently offensive title of the bill.

Indigenous and Northern Affairs committee  We need to make sure, with strong language from each of you. How you will know if your jurisdiction is respected through this bill?
