Where we come from, the distances are large and the climate is cold, and the carbon tax is costing all of our constituents a lot of money just to live. Would the hon. member agree with us that

Carbon Pricing  Mr. Speaker, no matter how many times the parliamentary secretary says it, Canadians are not better off under the carbon tax scheme. Canadians are feeling the weight of everyday costs going up, and we have seen that the carbon tax has cascaded through the economy, making life una

Stopping Internet Sexual Exploitation Act  Mr. Speaker, I am grateful for the opportunity to wrap up the debate on the SISE act at second reading.

Petitions  Mr. Speaker, I rise to present a petition today, which is signed by Canadians from across the country. These Canadians are concerned about the nearly 100,000 preborn children who die every year since the Morgentaler decision. Canada is only one of two nations in the world that h

The Budget  Mr. Speaker, I recognize that I am not allowed to use proper names here. After nine years of the Prime Minister, the budget is just more of the same mess. We have seen housing prices double. We have seen the carbon tax make everything more expensive. We have seen how crime and c

Stopping Internet Sexual Exploitation Act  Madam Speaker, I am happy to support that initiative. I would say we can do both of these things.
