It was also reported that Ms. Tong and Mr. Wang, among other methods, used CCP “proxies” to achieve those objectives. Ms. Tong reportedly even boasted in 2021 about how she helped defeat two Conservative members of Parliament, including an MP

Criminal Code  , but it is pretty clear to me, and I want to speak clearly to this, that the RCMP in Nova Scotia failed the public badly. I know a commission is looking at this, but the RCMP had information that was not shared. It failed to put out a warning and 22 people were killed. I know this inquiry

Criminal Code and Controlled Drugs and Substances Act   personal and political support. My role as an MP is now taking up more than half our relationship and I will never be able to repay him. As I said during the campaign, I very much wanted to come back to the House to be able to deal with unfinished business from the last Parliament

Health committee  . In 2020-21 alone, the Government of Canada provided $42 billion in cash support to provinces and territories through the Canada health transfer. That has grown to $43.1 billion this past year, 2021-22. In 2020-21, $9.7 billion was sent to Quebec alone. We will continue to work

Health committee   from the armed forces early in this pandemic, and the report they wrote had some shocking stories. This is an issue that Canadians care about deeply. Mr. Chair, I need to explain why, as a local MP, I had to sign this letter, and why I believe all members of this committee should

The same would be true for the various radio stations, CBC/Radio-Canada and commercial stations. Although the government has been in power for six years now, this much anticipated bill

Business of Supply   for that, I thought maybe the 184 opposition members could give them a hand. According to my calculations, if we decide to do the work for them, every MP will have to plant 10,869,565.2 trees. I do not want to brag, but I have already planted two trees in my yard, and I believe my

Privilege   of blocking out inconvenient facts speaks louder. However, one significant evolution since the health committee's experience is that here the government tried to deflect responsibility elsewhere for the redactions. According to an article on August 27 on CBC News entitled, “Commons law

COVID-19 Response Measures Act   with this bill and want to fix them now, not when it is too late or when most individuals will already be involved in the program. I would note that hundreds, if not thousands, of people have called their MPs to say that they did not think they were entitled to the CERB but that it was so

A CBC News article noted: The June 2017 report by former Privy Council Office chief Mel Cappe, now a professor at the University of Toronto, was obtained by The Canadian Press

The Budget   billion of new spending around, in order to distract from it all. The Liberals will be quick to point out that $41 billion is just if one uses cash accounting. We can use accrual accounting and it works out to $23 billion. However, the bottom line is this. The Prime Minister has
