00:00:04.200 --> 00:00:23.559
<v Speaker 1>Thank you for listening to Depictions Media Radio. Welcome to

2
00:00:23.600 --> 00:00:29.760
<v Speaker 1>Policy and Rights the show US welcomer Policy, Human Joys.

3
00:00:56.240 --> 00:00:59.000
<v Speaker 1>Welcome back to Policy and Rights Here Depictions Media Radio.

4
00:00:59.159 --> 00:01:05.120
<v Speaker 1>I am your ho Michael clocks. So there are a

5
00:01:05.280 --> 00:01:10.680
<v Speaker 1>number of things happening. Well, as Parliament had a session,

6
00:01:12.760 --> 00:01:15.760
<v Speaker 1>of course, we're still hearing Pierre Poviier talk about the

7
00:01:15.799 --> 00:01:20.319
<v Speaker 1>economy and how things are so affordable for Canadians. Well,

8
00:01:21.640 --> 00:01:26.400
<v Speaker 1>he may have a point that some things are getting

9
00:01:26.519 --> 00:01:29.640
<v Speaker 1>kind of pricey, but one of the things that I

10
00:01:29.799 --> 00:01:35.599
<v Speaker 1>have noticed is the price of gas. And the reason

11
00:01:35.640 --> 00:01:37.879
<v Speaker 1>why I bring up the price of gas is because

12
00:01:38.319 --> 00:01:44.599
<v Speaker 1>the price of being able to fill a tank on

13
00:01:44.640 --> 00:01:49.760
<v Speaker 1>a vehicle also affects some of the costs of deliveries

14
00:01:49.879 --> 00:01:56.239
<v Speaker 1>of things like food, other clothing products and things that

15
00:01:56.280 --> 00:01:59.959
<v Speaker 1>we wear that they do actually have an effect. Way,

16
00:02:00.000 --> 00:02:02.719
<v Speaker 1>when those prices start to go down, you might see

17
00:02:02.799 --> 00:02:08.039
<v Speaker 1>some other prices start to fall. Maybe not in this

18
00:02:09.199 --> 00:02:16.120
<v Speaker 1>in the same proportion, but when fuel prices go down,

19
00:02:16.240 --> 00:02:19.960
<v Speaker 1>other prices do tend to fall. So we have to

20
00:02:19.960 --> 00:02:24.199
<v Speaker 1>ask our question. Ask this question is what Pierre Paubier

21
00:02:24.520 --> 00:02:32.560
<v Speaker 1>is saying about the unaffordability of Canada. Propaganda or truth.

22
00:02:34.280 --> 00:02:38.840
<v Speaker 1>We do have to decide that for ourselves. If you

23
00:02:39.000 --> 00:02:44.479
<v Speaker 1>decide that as propaganda, you get a different set of

24
00:02:44.520 --> 00:02:49.280
<v Speaker 1>answers then if you see it as strict on adult

25
00:02:49.280 --> 00:02:55.840
<v Speaker 1>created truth. There are some other things that that are

26
00:02:57.800 --> 00:03:03.599
<v Speaker 1>are looming. One that we still haven't seen this be

27
00:03:03.800 --> 00:03:08.639
<v Speaker 1>completely being removed off the board filling tankers off the

28
00:03:08.800 --> 00:03:13.120
<v Speaker 1>coast of British Columbia, and the path that they want

29
00:03:13.120 --> 00:03:17.000
<v Speaker 1>those tankers to take in order to get to the

30
00:03:17.039 --> 00:03:23.840
<v Speaker 1>port where they will be filled. One the path that

31
00:03:24.719 --> 00:03:27.280
<v Speaker 1>the Conservative Party is saying this should be taken to

32
00:03:27.360 --> 00:03:31.319
<v Speaker 1>the path that Alberta is saying should be taken, does

33
00:03:31.400 --> 00:03:36.000
<v Speaker 1>not match what the path of the British Columbia, who

34
00:03:36.240 --> 00:03:43.159
<v Speaker 1>knows their coastal waters better than anyone else, doesn't. The

35
00:03:43.240 --> 00:03:50.199
<v Speaker 1>two paths do not match. There is a what one

36
00:03:50.240 --> 00:03:53.240
<v Speaker 1>group of people with Alberta and the Conservatives are saying

37
00:03:54.080 --> 00:03:59.639
<v Speaker 1>is a very fast path path and can get product

38
00:04:00.080 --> 00:04:04.800
<v Speaker 1>straight out into the ocean and around the world faster

39
00:04:06.479 --> 00:04:12.280
<v Speaker 1>is the most dangerous path. That path is a path

40
00:04:12.319 --> 00:04:16.600
<v Speaker 1>that they could lead to potential disaster for the coastal

41
00:04:16.680 --> 00:04:22.759
<v Speaker 1>businesses of British Columbia, rendering some of the tourism that

42
00:04:22.959 --> 00:04:29.240
<v Speaker 1>actually draws people into British Columbia. Well, there would be

43
00:04:29.240 --> 00:04:33.759
<v Speaker 1>no business left because if there is a Tarsan spill

44
00:04:36.319 --> 00:04:43.279
<v Speaker 1>in those coastal waters, the Tarsan would take well longer

45
00:04:43.319 --> 00:04:46.720
<v Speaker 1>than we have to be alive rate now in order

46
00:04:46.759 --> 00:04:50.439
<v Speaker 1>to clean it up, which means that there would be

47
00:04:50.560 --> 00:04:56.040
<v Speaker 1>how many businesses lost, beaches lost, tourism dollars lost to

48
00:04:56.120 --> 00:05:07.519
<v Speaker 1>British Columbia, all because of a Tartsan beachumen spill. David

49
00:05:07.560 --> 00:05:11.800
<v Speaker 1>Ebe at this point has has been steadfast with it,

50
00:05:12.240 --> 00:05:15.680
<v Speaker 1>but there are some other things flowing around in Parliament

51
00:05:15.759 --> 00:05:22.800
<v Speaker 1>that could affect how effective David eb could be in

52
00:05:22.920 --> 00:05:26.399
<v Speaker 1>stopping these tankers from being off the coast of British

53
00:05:26.399 --> 00:05:34.680
<v Speaker 1>Columbia and ruining the the beaches, the businesses and one

54
00:05:34.720 --> 00:05:41.240
<v Speaker 1>of the British Columbia Lower mainland way of life. Not

55
00:05:41.399 --> 00:05:45.720
<v Speaker 1>to mention the wildlife that would be affected, the the

56
00:05:45.720 --> 00:05:53.160
<v Speaker 1>the orca, the and other other marine mammals such as seals,

57
00:05:55.240 --> 00:05:59.360
<v Speaker 1>the BirdLife that would that would be affected because of

58
00:05:59.720 --> 00:06:04.839
<v Speaker 1>the the lack of fish. Oh, we mentioned the fish too,

59
00:06:05.160 --> 00:06:11.439
<v Speaker 1>and the and possibly the the the salmon that would

60
00:06:11.439 --> 00:06:16.839
<v Speaker 1>be affected. So there's a lot of a lot of

61
00:06:17.839 --> 00:06:21.800
<v Speaker 1>disaster that could happen if they take the path that

62
00:06:22.560 --> 00:06:29.759
<v Speaker 1>Alberta once. One of the things that is looming around

63
00:06:30.879 --> 00:06:34.879
<v Speaker 1>Ottawa right now is a bill that would fast track

64
00:06:35.120 --> 00:06:39.680
<v Speaker 1>projects and eliminate a lot of conversation, a lot of planning.

65
00:06:40.839 --> 00:06:49.480
<v Speaker 1>The project would just move forward with reckless abandonment. And

66
00:06:49.600 --> 00:06:54.199
<v Speaker 1>that that bill does need to not be put in place,

67
00:06:54.439 --> 00:06:57.839
<v Speaker 1>But if that bill is put in place, it could

68
00:06:58.759 --> 00:07:04.720
<v Speaker 1>circumvent other environmental arguments because it would eliminate some of

69
00:07:04.759 --> 00:07:07.480
<v Speaker 1>the environmental studies that would be done in order to

70
00:07:07.519 --> 00:07:14.480
<v Speaker 1>make a project viable under the idea of fast tracking,

71
00:07:14.720 --> 00:07:18.800
<v Speaker 1>so that we protect the economy and that we caused

72
00:07:18.839 --> 00:07:24.040
<v Speaker 1>more economic growth in the world. If we're causing more

73
00:07:24.079 --> 00:07:26.920
<v Speaker 1>economic growth in the world, but we're ruining the land

74
00:07:26.959 --> 00:07:30.120
<v Speaker 1>that we need to live on, then that is a

75
00:07:30.199 --> 00:07:34.680
<v Speaker 1>sacrifice isn't worth having. And this is some of the

76
00:07:34.720 --> 00:07:38.360
<v Speaker 1>issues that we're going to hear. We might hear some

77
00:07:38.399 --> 00:07:41.600
<v Speaker 1>of that from Elizabeth may As. She is one of

78
00:07:41.600 --> 00:07:44.360
<v Speaker 1>the people who we have recorded. We also have a

79
00:07:44.480 --> 00:07:47.800
<v Speaker 1>Liberal MP that there's recorded. He's talking about another set

80
00:07:47.839 --> 00:07:55.160
<v Speaker 1>of bills that are that are out there, and we're

81
00:07:55.199 --> 00:07:59.000
<v Speaker 1>going to hear of some of the debate that happened

82
00:07:59.120 --> 00:08:04.079
<v Speaker 1>on Parliament Hill in Ottawa. So why don't we get started,

83
00:08:04.600 --> 00:08:08.040
<v Speaker 1>And we're going to listen to Elizabeth May first as

84
00:08:08.040 --> 00:08:11.480
<v Speaker 1>she talks about some of the things that with some

85
00:08:11.600 --> 00:08:15.160
<v Speaker 1>of the bills that she thinks are kind of scary

86
00:08:15.199 --> 00:08:16.399
<v Speaker 1>if they're put into law.

87
00:08:22.720 --> 00:08:26.680
<v Speaker 2>So thank you, bon to lamone and someone uncle EZI.

88
00:08:27.319 --> 00:08:29.680
<v Speaker 2>So we're back in happy twenty twenty six. It sure

89
00:08:29.720 --> 00:08:33.360
<v Speaker 2>isn't twenty fifteen anymore. And as the head of the

90
00:08:33.399 --> 00:08:37.000
<v Speaker 2>IMF said recently in Davos, We're not in Kansas anymore.

91
00:08:38.000 --> 00:08:40.799
<v Speaker 2>I'm as leader of the Green Party, Elizabeth May and

92
00:08:40.840 --> 00:08:43.799
<v Speaker 2>Member Apartment for Sanatigo Violence. Wanted to address the immediate

93
00:08:43.799 --> 00:08:47.039
<v Speaker 2>concerns we have for this session. It was funny how

94
00:08:47.840 --> 00:08:50.279
<v Speaker 2>my friend Steve McKinnon didn't mention the bill that worries

95
00:08:50.320 --> 00:08:52.919
<v Speaker 2>me the most right now is we're gathered together. Although

96
00:08:52.960 --> 00:09:01.840
<v Speaker 2>I think Chaponscu de la Lampleymantacion de bouge Uh the

97
00:09:01.879 --> 00:09:05.720
<v Speaker 2>Budget Implementation Act. Unfortunately, I do carry it with me

98
00:09:05.799 --> 00:09:08.519
<v Speaker 2>to make sure I can point out the sections that

99
00:09:08.559 --> 00:09:11.000
<v Speaker 2>bother me. But it is over six hundred pages long.

100
00:09:11.399 --> 00:09:15.039
<v Speaker 2>It is the ultimate of omnibus budget bills. It changes

101
00:09:15.080 --> 00:09:19.759
<v Speaker 2>twenty other laws, and it hasn't been properly studied at all.

102
00:09:20.320 --> 00:09:23.679
<v Speaker 2>There were a number of really controversial pieces of legislation

103
00:09:24.399 --> 00:09:29.240
<v Speaker 2>that carried at second reading through the fall, and members

104
00:09:29.279 --> 00:09:31.519
<v Speaker 2>of the Ottawa Corps will know what it means when

105
00:09:31.519 --> 00:09:39.639
<v Speaker 2>I say they passed on division vote le vote de

106
00:09:40.159 --> 00:09:44.679
<v Speaker 2>de Deputy Shaka, so I wasn't allowed to vote against

107
00:09:44.919 --> 00:09:47.720
<v Speaker 2>or for Bill C twelve, one of the ones that

108
00:09:48.120 --> 00:09:50.399
<v Speaker 2>the government House Leader just identified as one of their

109
00:09:50.399 --> 00:09:54.879
<v Speaker 2>big priorities. Bill C twelve doesn't ensure safe borders, but

110
00:09:55.000 --> 00:09:58.720
<v Speaker 2>it does ensure that refugee rights are infringed.

111
00:09:58.840 --> 00:10:00.679
<v Speaker 3>And I'm not alone.

112
00:10:00.919 --> 00:10:05.639
<v Speaker 2>The Association of Refugee Lawyers of Canada has said also

113
00:10:05.879 --> 00:10:10.120
<v Speaker 2>that this violates Canada's international commitments to international refugee law.

114
00:10:10.559 --> 00:10:14.480
<v Speaker 2>In any case, that bill went through quote unquote on

115
00:10:14.559 --> 00:10:17.080
<v Speaker 2>division at second rating, which meant I couldn't register my

116
00:10:17.159 --> 00:10:20.960
<v Speaker 2>vote against it, and when it was ultimately bundled together

117
00:10:21.200 --> 00:10:24.919
<v Speaker 2>with other bills on the last day when Parliament met,

118
00:10:25.120 --> 00:10:27.639
<v Speaker 2>which was December eleventh. Our last day was supposed to

119
00:10:27.679 --> 00:10:31.879
<v Speaker 2>be December twelfth. You'll recallably adjourned a day early based

120
00:10:31.919 --> 00:10:35.080
<v Speaker 2>on the unanimous consent motion that rushed through a number

121
00:10:35.120 --> 00:10:39.799
<v Speaker 2>of bills altogether by unanimous consent. All I could do

122
00:10:40.159 --> 00:10:43.320
<v Speaker 2>was say to mister McKinnon's office and others, I'll be

123
00:10:43.440 --> 00:10:48.440
<v Speaker 2>voting no. This created some amount of concern because unanimous

124
00:10:48.480 --> 00:10:51.799
<v Speaker 2>consent means what it sounds like, and one member of

125
00:10:51.799 --> 00:10:56.639
<v Speaker 2>Parliament who doesn't agree means your unanimous consent motion isn't

126
00:10:56.639 --> 00:11:02.480
<v Speaker 2>going to work. So in negotiating with Liberal House Leader

127
00:11:02.519 --> 00:11:05.480
<v Speaker 2>and Deputy House Leader, they said, would you what's the problem.

128
00:11:06.440 --> 00:11:09.320
<v Speaker 2>My problem isn't that I don't want everybody to catch

129
00:11:09.360 --> 00:11:11.759
<v Speaker 2>the planes they've now booked to go home a day early.

130
00:11:12.240 --> 00:11:15.840
<v Speaker 2>My problem is that it seems wrong that I don't

131
00:11:15.879 --> 00:11:19.039
<v Speaker 2>get to record my vote against Bill C twelve and

132
00:11:19.320 --> 00:11:21.720
<v Speaker 2>on other bills that where I would see four where

133
00:11:21.720 --> 00:11:25.320
<v Speaker 2>I would register concern and vote against them. So what

134
00:11:25.480 --> 00:11:28.960
<v Speaker 2>happened was they amended the unanimous consent motion to end

135
00:11:29.039 --> 00:11:33.360
<v Speaker 2>with noting the opposition of the Honorable Member for Sanategulf violence.

136
00:11:33.919 --> 00:11:39.720
<v Speaker 2>But there's been a degree an erosion of parliamentary democracy

137
00:11:39.720 --> 00:11:44.080
<v Speaker 2>in this place since the election. That passes mostly unnoticed

138
00:11:44.440 --> 00:11:47.679
<v Speaker 2>because parliamentary democracy doesn't get a lot of attention even

139
00:11:47.679 --> 00:11:49.559
<v Speaker 2>in the best of times, and this isn't the best

140
00:11:49.600 --> 00:11:53.600
<v Speaker 2>of times, bills are passed without proper study, notably Bill

141
00:11:53.679 --> 00:11:57.480
<v Speaker 2>C five, which had a programming motion that was breathtakingly

142
00:11:57.440 --> 00:12:02.399
<v Speaker 2>anti democratic back in June. We now have the passage

143
00:12:02.440 --> 00:12:06.519
<v Speaker 2>also of Bill C twelve first on division, which means

144
00:12:06.600 --> 00:12:10.000
<v Speaker 2>for viewers that when debate collapses, in other words, there's

145
00:12:10.039 --> 00:12:13.159
<v Speaker 2>no more speakers to speak to it, the speaker says,

146
00:12:13.200 --> 00:12:16.720
<v Speaker 2>so it now passes on division. And the only members

147
00:12:16.759 --> 00:12:19.120
<v Speaker 2>of Parliament who can object and say we want a

148
00:12:19.159 --> 00:12:22.360
<v Speaker 2>recorded vote on this are members of what's called a

149
00:12:22.440 --> 00:12:26.360
<v Speaker 2>recognized party, which in this case is in this parliament Liberals,

150
00:12:26.360 --> 00:12:30.759
<v Speaker 2>Conservatives or the block in Anton pass a home is

151
00:12:30.840 --> 00:12:35.080
<v Speaker 2>the DUIs de deputy sank deputy to sank deputy Ultra

152
00:12:35.159 --> 00:12:42.480
<v Speaker 2>pati de pati plu petit ensemble so ex vote register.

153
00:12:43.080 --> 00:12:45.559
<v Speaker 2>So when I was first elected in twenty eleven, I

154
00:12:45.559 --> 00:12:47.960
<v Speaker 2>never knew I was lucky then. But there were four

155
00:12:48.080 --> 00:12:51.159
<v Speaker 2>members of the block Quebecua not a recognized party, and

156
00:12:51.200 --> 00:12:53.799
<v Speaker 2>me Green Party, not a recognized party. But the rule

157
00:12:53.840 --> 00:12:56.200
<v Speaker 2>then was five members of apartament could stand up and

158
00:12:56.240 --> 00:12:59.639
<v Speaker 2>demand a recorded vote. We can't do that anymore. Those

159
00:12:59.759 --> 00:13:05.320
<v Speaker 2>rules changed during COVID, so we have seven dpmps and

160
00:13:05.360 --> 00:13:10.200
<v Speaker 2>me who generally on these votes on division. Who knows

161
00:13:10.240 --> 00:13:13.720
<v Speaker 2>how people would have voted, because on division means it's

162
00:13:13.759 --> 00:13:16.919
<v Speaker 2>gone through now. You can't do on division at third

163
00:13:16.960 --> 00:13:22.159
<v Speaker 2>reading and at report stage. But they bundled those together

164
00:13:22.320 --> 00:13:26.200
<v Speaker 2>in the unanimous consent motion on December eleventh, So the

165
00:13:26.200 --> 00:13:32.960
<v Speaker 2>House ended quickly on December tenth, the debate on this monster.

166
00:13:33.559 --> 00:13:37.840
<v Speaker 2>Bill C fifteen, the Budget Implementation Act, past second reading

167
00:13:37.919 --> 00:13:41.600
<v Speaker 2>on division. Now I hope that the Speaker and the

168
00:13:41.639 --> 00:13:45.480
<v Speaker 2>Government will agree that a bill that touches this many

169
00:13:45.519 --> 00:13:48.720
<v Speaker 2>other pieces of legislation need to go to more than

170
00:13:48.799 --> 00:13:52.519
<v Speaker 2>one committee. As things now stand, since Bill C fifteen,

171
00:13:52.559 --> 00:13:56.399
<v Speaker 2>the Budget Implementation Bill, passed on division on December tenth,

172
00:13:56.679 --> 00:13:59.840
<v Speaker 2>it's now ready to second reading. It's now ready to

173
00:13:59.879 --> 00:14:03.159
<v Speaker 2>go to the Committee for study. The Committee to study

174
00:14:03.200 --> 00:14:06.320
<v Speaker 2>it is designated as the Finance Committee. But there are

175
00:14:06.320 --> 00:14:09.799
<v Speaker 2>many sections in here that should go to other committees

176
00:14:09.960 --> 00:14:12.679
<v Speaker 2>for proper study. And if I can point out one

177
00:14:12.720 --> 00:14:15.559
<v Speaker 2>thing that's of concern, and I did see just this

178
00:14:15.600 --> 00:14:20.519
<v Speaker 2>week a coalition of organizations from and individuals David Suzuki

179
00:14:20.559 --> 00:14:25.159
<v Speaker 2>but also Council of Canadians and also Sierra Club and

180
00:14:25.720 --> 00:14:29.080
<v Speaker 2>a Greenpeace, a number of organizations saying what's this here?

181
00:14:29.480 --> 00:14:35.320
<v Speaker 2>Does Division five of Bill C fifteen is amendments to

182
00:14:35.679 --> 00:14:40.200
<v Speaker 2>the Red Tape Reduction Act. If you're unfamiliar with them,

183
00:14:40.200 --> 00:14:42.200
<v Speaker 2>you find the pages three or I did have this

184
00:14:42.279 --> 00:14:45.080
<v Speaker 2>my question and Question period on December ninth, So I

185
00:14:45.120 --> 00:14:47.000
<v Speaker 2>am the only member of Partiment who's raised this so

186
00:14:47.080 --> 00:14:49.799
<v Speaker 2>far in this place to say, can the Minister of

187
00:14:49.840 --> 00:14:53.600
<v Speaker 2>Finance explain why any minister is going to be aglowed

188
00:14:53.759 --> 00:14:58.039
<v Speaker 2>to exempt any entity from the operation of any federal

189
00:14:58.120 --> 00:15:02.360
<v Speaker 2>law within their area. A minister, any minister can exempt

190
00:15:02.559 --> 00:15:06.840
<v Speaker 2>any entity from any federal law in their jurisdiction if

191
00:15:06.879 --> 00:15:08.879
<v Speaker 2>they think it's in the public interest, and there are

192
00:15:08.919 --> 00:15:12.440
<v Speaker 2>no criteria in the bill to tell us what would

193
00:15:13.240 --> 00:15:16.159
<v Speaker 2>direct the minister's attention to think it's in the public interest.

194
00:15:16.639 --> 00:15:18.360
<v Speaker 2>I won't go on about it at this point, just

195
00:15:18.399 --> 00:15:21.080
<v Speaker 2>to say it's a priority for me to the Green

196
00:15:21.120 --> 00:15:24.240
<v Speaker 2>Party and I think for Canadians across the country to

197
00:15:25.039 --> 00:15:28.759
<v Speaker 2>have amendments to Bill C fifteen, the Budget Implementation Act.

198
00:15:29.000 --> 00:15:31.440
<v Speaker 2>I have some other concerns with other sections of this Act,

199
00:15:31.759 --> 00:15:36.480
<v Speaker 2>but certainly I want to see Division five the Red

200
00:15:36.519 --> 00:15:41.519
<v Speaker 2>Tape Production Act substantially amended, if not deleted, Division five

201
00:15:41.919 --> 00:15:44.759
<v Speaker 2>of Bill C fifteen. We're looking at a lot of

202
00:15:44.879 --> 00:15:48.080
<v Speaker 2>other bills that we still have not had properly studied.

203
00:15:48.120 --> 00:15:51.399
<v Speaker 2>In this place, things moved fast, as I said, with

204
00:15:52.120 --> 00:15:58.120
<v Speaker 2>decisions on division and no study or virtually no study

205
00:15:58.200 --> 00:16:01.840
<v Speaker 2>in committees. I hope that as mister Carney gets more

206
00:16:01.840 --> 00:16:07.320
<v Speaker 2>accommodated to his role as a parliamentarian, that Parliament will

207
00:16:07.399 --> 00:16:11.200
<v Speaker 2>be more respected. I'm particularly concerned as well, and I'll

208
00:16:11.240 --> 00:16:13.600
<v Speaker 2>be asking the Auditor General to look into this. A

209
00:16:13.720 --> 00:16:17.440
<v Speaker 2>number of the newly created entities that have been created

210
00:16:17.480 --> 00:16:21.639
<v Speaker 2>since the election, things like the Build Canada Homes and

211
00:16:21.879 --> 00:16:27.039
<v Speaker 2>the Major Project's Office and the Office to Organize Defense Procurement,

212
00:16:27.519 --> 00:16:31.159
<v Speaker 2>are not organized as one would expect within a relevant

213
00:16:31.159 --> 00:16:35.759
<v Speaker 2>department reporting to a minister, but are special operating agencies

214
00:16:35.879 --> 00:16:39.440
<v Speaker 2>under Treasury Board regulation and thus are under Treasury Board

215
00:16:39.480 --> 00:16:44.279
<v Speaker 2>confidentiality for things like their work plans, their budgets, their

216
00:16:44.480 --> 00:16:49.799
<v Speaker 2>special operating agencies, which is of concern for me because

217
00:16:50.039 --> 00:16:54.000
<v Speaker 2>of the lack of transparency that goes with being a

218
00:16:54.039 --> 00:16:58.240
<v Speaker 2>special operating agency. I certainly will be pressing this government

219
00:16:58.759 --> 00:17:01.799
<v Speaker 2>to see where is the climate plan. I heard there

220
00:17:01.879 --> 00:17:04.599
<v Speaker 2>was reference to it today that it's not just that

221
00:17:04.640 --> 00:17:07.920
<v Speaker 2>the current climate plan has been changed. There is no

222
00:17:08.039 --> 00:17:11.000
<v Speaker 2>current climate plan. Much of what the previous government had

223
00:17:11.000 --> 00:17:13.960
<v Speaker 2>in place has been removed, nothing new has been added.

224
00:17:14.519 --> 00:17:17.640
<v Speaker 2>And regardless of what we may say about the MoU

225
00:17:17.920 --> 00:17:23.279
<v Speaker 2>with Alberta's, the current government doesn't have a climate plan

226
00:17:23.599 --> 00:17:27.720
<v Speaker 2>and that's quite unacceptable this far into their mandate. So

227
00:17:27.880 --> 00:17:31.079
<v Speaker 2>I think at that point out having really skimbling the

228
00:17:31.119 --> 00:17:33.960
<v Speaker 2>surface of the things we'll be pushing for, will remain

229
00:17:34.039 --> 00:17:37.000
<v Speaker 2>vigilant on human rights. That's why I can't support Bill

230
00:17:37.079 --> 00:17:40.319
<v Speaker 2>C twelve. I was horrified that that be the one bill,

231
00:17:40.519 --> 00:17:44.880
<v Speaker 2>one of the three bills that our government House Leader

232
00:17:45.039 --> 00:17:49.279
<v Speaker 2>friend Steve McKinnon mentioned that one needed proper study, particularly

233
00:17:49.359 --> 00:17:52.000
<v Speaker 2>in the ways it infringes on refugee rights. But don't

234
00:17:52.000 --> 00:17:56.160
<v Speaker 2>forget that C twelve took portions of what was originally

235
00:17:56.160 --> 00:17:59.519
<v Speaker 2>introduced as Bill C two. Bill C too. The Strong

236
00:17:59.559 --> 00:18:03.279
<v Speaker 2>Borders is still on the order paper, and now that

237
00:18:03.359 --> 00:18:06.839
<v Speaker 2>they have forced through with the unanimous consent motion the

238
00:18:06.920 --> 00:18:10.680
<v Speaker 2>last stages of C twelve in this place, one would

239
00:18:10.720 --> 00:18:13.680
<v Speaker 2>expect that they're going to because Gary and Desangri said

240
00:18:13.960 --> 00:18:16.799
<v Speaker 2>C two isn't dead, it's not being withdrawn. Those were

241
00:18:16.799 --> 00:18:19.759
<v Speaker 2>the portions of the Strong Border Act that remain once

242
00:18:19.759 --> 00:18:22.799
<v Speaker 2>you take out what passed in C twelve for warrantless

243
00:18:22.880 --> 00:18:26.720
<v Speaker 2>opening of mail and warrantless access to Internet information. So

244
00:18:27.519 --> 00:18:30.240
<v Speaker 2>I expect that we'll also see a new version of

245
00:18:30.319 --> 00:18:33.640
<v Speaker 2>C two but for the ones that I'd also say

246
00:18:33.680 --> 00:18:36.559
<v Speaker 2>that Steve McKinnon is very busy and I hope that

247
00:18:36.599 --> 00:18:40.240
<v Speaker 2>in his role as Transport Minister, he will bring back

248
00:18:40.720 --> 00:18:43.279
<v Speaker 2>the bill that died on the order paper, Bill C

249
00:18:43.359 --> 00:18:46.000
<v Speaker 2>thirty three, that was ready to go to be passed.

250
00:18:46.000 --> 00:18:48.240
<v Speaker 2>It had gone through clause by clause and committee that

251
00:18:48.279 --> 00:18:51.519
<v Speaker 2>would ban the export of thermal coal from Canada and

252
00:18:51.559 --> 00:18:55.119
<v Speaker 2>give us more protection for inland waterways. The job of

253
00:18:55.160 --> 00:18:58.559
<v Speaker 2>a Minister of Transportation is a full time job, and

254
00:18:58.759 --> 00:19:02.599
<v Speaker 2>it's obviously I have a lot of sympathy for mister

255
00:19:02.680 --> 00:19:04.920
<v Speaker 2>McKinnon and his role. I also have sympathy for the

256
00:19:04.920 --> 00:19:07.880
<v Speaker 2>Prime Minister who wants to be dealing with the President

257
00:19:07.920 --> 00:19:11.839
<v Speaker 2>of the United States, who's petulant and sends out notices

258
00:19:11.960 --> 00:19:15.279
<v Speaker 2>that are on his social media account to say I'm

259
00:19:15.319 --> 00:19:18.079
<v Speaker 2>now uninviting you this take this letter. I think what

260
00:19:18.119 --> 00:19:20.880
<v Speaker 2>it says, take this letter is representing that you've now

261
00:19:20.960 --> 00:19:24.640
<v Speaker 2>lost your I mean, I don't know. Donald Trump obviously

262
00:19:24.640 --> 00:19:27.599
<v Speaker 2>writes his own tweets. I suppose he's imagining that he

263
00:19:27.680 --> 00:19:29.519
<v Speaker 2>ever went to law school and he thinks this is

264
00:19:29.519 --> 00:19:32.119
<v Speaker 2>how somebody who's smart would write a letter. It's not.

265
00:19:32.359 --> 00:19:35.039
<v Speaker 2>But that's all right. I do accept that our Prime

266
00:19:35.039 --> 00:19:37.319
<v Speaker 2>minister is very smart, and I'm sure he wrote his

267
00:19:37.359 --> 00:19:40.200
<v Speaker 2>own speech for Demos. It was well written, it was

268
00:19:40.440 --> 00:19:45.640
<v Speaker 2>well constructed, it was rightly celebrated. But it does not

269
00:19:45.880 --> 00:19:50.119
<v Speaker 2>represent a vision for Canada, and no cinep vision mondial

270
00:19:51.160 --> 00:19:57.720
<v Speaker 2>sit situn declara, mondiel actual mont. It's a statement of

271
00:19:57.720 --> 00:20:00.599
<v Speaker 2>how things are in the world right now. I want

272
00:20:00.640 --> 00:20:04.359
<v Speaker 2>Canada to step up and participate in saying what does

273
00:20:04.400 --> 00:20:08.720
<v Speaker 2>the new world order look like? And it's foundationally the

274
00:20:08.839 --> 00:20:12.839
<v Speaker 2>United Nations Charter, and it's foundationally respect for human rights

275
00:20:13.039 --> 00:20:17.359
<v Speaker 2>and working with other democracies and not deciding that will

276
00:20:17.440 --> 00:20:20.839
<v Speaker 2>jettison human rights in exchange for trade deals. I'll close

277
00:20:20.880 --> 00:20:24.920
<v Speaker 2>there and happy to answer any questions metal and vegetimity.

278
00:20:24.519 --> 00:20:26.519
<v Speaker 4>The government should do for Bill C nine.

279
00:20:27.039 --> 00:20:30.160
<v Speaker 2>Bill C nine, I think the parts that are offensive

280
00:20:30.160 --> 00:20:33.079
<v Speaker 2>to me, Okay, let me break it up. I don't

281
00:20:33.079 --> 00:20:37.640
<v Speaker 2>see any problem with Bill C nine in terms of

282
00:20:37.720 --> 00:20:40.960
<v Speaker 2>and I'm getting inundated. A lot of constituents, a lot

283
00:20:41.000 --> 00:20:45.519
<v Speaker 2>of Canadians are outraged at the idea that people are

284
00:20:45.519 --> 00:20:48.559
<v Speaker 2>no longer protected from hate speech if they're citing from

285
00:20:48.599 --> 00:20:51.839
<v Speaker 2>sacred texts. That doesn't trouble me as much. I think

286
00:20:51.880 --> 00:20:54.880
<v Speaker 2>that can be amended and clarified in terms of what

287
00:20:54.960 --> 00:21:00.200
<v Speaker 2>ways in which you're protected or not protected. The part

288
00:21:00.240 --> 00:21:06.240
<v Speaker 2>that bothers me more is the delegitimizing of lawful charter

289
00:21:06.400 --> 00:21:10.359
<v Speaker 2>protected rights to protest if without your knowledge, you happen

290
00:21:10.440 --> 00:21:12.400
<v Speaker 2>to be within blocks of a place of worship that

291
00:21:12.440 --> 00:21:15.079
<v Speaker 2>you didn't know was there, and behind you someone's holding

292
00:21:15.079 --> 00:21:17.400
<v Speaker 2>a flag that you didn't know was there. So I

293
00:21:17.400 --> 00:21:20.759
<v Speaker 2>think that Se nine could use reworking for sure. But

294
00:21:21.000 --> 00:21:23.759
<v Speaker 2>the parts, I mean, there's sections of Leviticus. As a

295
00:21:23.799 --> 00:21:26.039
<v Speaker 2>practicing Christian, I would never stand up and say these

296
00:21:26.039 --> 00:21:29.119
<v Speaker 2>are my beliefs. This section of Leviticus, which is horrific.

297
00:21:29.559 --> 00:21:31.680
<v Speaker 2>I mean there's lots. You can find anything you want.

298
00:21:32.279 --> 00:21:35.680
<v Speaker 2>The Bible's big, so you can beat your swords into plowshares,

299
00:21:36.319 --> 00:21:38.000
<v Speaker 2>or if you feel like it, you can beat your

300
00:21:38.000 --> 00:21:41.599
<v Speaker 2>plowshares into swords. They're both in there. So cherry picking

301
00:21:41.640 --> 00:21:44.599
<v Speaker 2>from the Bible to defend hateful speech isn't a good

302
00:21:44.599 --> 00:21:48.160
<v Speaker 2>idea any more than it is from a Quran. It's

303
00:21:48.920 --> 00:21:53.960
<v Speaker 2>important to respect religious freedoms and every Canadian's right to

304
00:21:54.000 --> 00:21:57.200
<v Speaker 2>worship as they wish to worship. And I think that

305
00:21:57.319 --> 00:21:59.920
<v Speaker 2>C nine has become a flashpoint for the wrong reason.

306
00:22:01.240 --> 00:22:04.200
<v Speaker 5>If you were heading to a snap election in the spring.

307
00:22:03.839 --> 00:22:10.200
<v Speaker 2>I don't think so, primarily because well, the Liberals would.

308
00:22:10.240 --> 00:22:12.799
<v Speaker 2>I thought, okay, in the back of my head as

309
00:22:12.839 --> 00:22:17.880
<v Speaker 2>I was struggling with this bill. Obviously the twenty twenty

310
00:22:17.880 --> 00:22:21.000
<v Speaker 2>five budget, which they didn't use disappearing inc it still

311
00:22:21.039 --> 00:22:23.079
<v Speaker 2>says the things they promised me. They're gone in the

312
00:22:23.279 --> 00:22:25.680
<v Speaker 2>mlu But never mind. When I was struggling with that,

313
00:22:26.839 --> 00:22:29.880
<v Speaker 2>I thought, in the back room somewhere, the Liberals want

314
00:22:29.920 --> 00:22:34.640
<v Speaker 2>an election. Not necessarily, mister Carneie, not necessary, it's just Champagne.

315
00:22:35.119 --> 00:22:37.240
<v Speaker 2>But it would suit them to be able to say

316
00:22:37.920 --> 00:22:41.359
<v Speaker 2>we only got elected in April. These awful people in Parliament,

317
00:22:41.400 --> 00:22:43.880
<v Speaker 2>and I think most Canadians would agree Parliament looks pretty awful.

318
00:22:44.319 --> 00:22:47.160
<v Speaker 2>Have kept us from fulfilling our mandate. Surely we should

319
00:22:47.160 --> 00:22:50.839
<v Speaker 2>have been given the benefit of the doubt. In that context,

320
00:22:51.400 --> 00:22:55.160
<v Speaker 2>that snap election in December I think would have resulted

321
00:22:55.160 --> 00:22:57.039
<v Speaker 2>in a Liberal majority, so I think some of them

322
00:22:57.079 --> 00:23:00.000
<v Speaker 2>were looking for it, but they were meanwhile counting up

323
00:23:00.039 --> 00:23:02.480
<v Speaker 2>their votes on people who would cross the floor. There

324
00:23:02.480 --> 00:23:05.359
<v Speaker 2>may be more floor crossers still. I think that might

325
00:23:05.440 --> 00:23:08.799
<v Speaker 2>be a preferred mo for the Liberals at this point,

326
00:23:09.200 --> 00:23:11.400
<v Speaker 2>is to get a majority through floor crossing. We know

327
00:23:11.440 --> 00:23:15.839
<v Speaker 2>they worked aggressively over it on specific MPs over the holidays.

328
00:23:16.200 --> 00:23:19.200
<v Speaker 2>We'll see what happens if more joined them through floor crossings.

329
00:23:19.440 --> 00:23:21.880
<v Speaker 2>But they've got a more imminent problem, which is that

330
00:23:21.920 --> 00:23:25.240
<v Speaker 2>they've with Christian Freeland's resignation from Parliament, they're going to

331
00:23:25.319 --> 00:23:28.400
<v Speaker 2>need a by election. There are other Liberals rumored to

332
00:23:28.440 --> 00:23:32.599
<v Speaker 2>be leaving soon. A set of spring by elections. I

333
00:23:32.640 --> 00:23:35.359
<v Speaker 2>think we can take that to the bank. But a

334
00:23:35.440 --> 00:23:38.640
<v Speaker 2>snap election a spring possible, but I don't think likely.

335
00:23:38.680 --> 00:23:41.119
<v Speaker 2>There's enough reasons that the Liberals wouldn't want to take

336
00:23:41.160 --> 00:23:46.079
<v Speaker 2>the chance. Uh And as things now stand, their polling

337
00:23:46.200 --> 00:23:50.240
<v Speaker 2>so high and Mark Karney is still wearing teflon, so

338
00:23:50.279 --> 00:23:52.480
<v Speaker 2>it'll take a while for that to wear down.

339
00:23:58.119 --> 00:24:00.559

352
00:25:24.599 --> 00:25:27.599
<v Speaker 2>any explanation. No one from the Prime Minister's office has

353
00:25:27.640 --> 00:25:31.200
<v Speaker 2>said we should talk to you about how come the

354
00:25:31.279 --> 00:25:34.240
<v Speaker 2>things we said we would do are now vanished into

355
00:25:34.279 --> 00:25:37.279
<v Speaker 2>thin air. We have a really good explanation. Can't talk

356
00:25:37.319 --> 00:25:40.200
<v Speaker 2>to you now, but we'll get back to you. Nothing

357
00:25:40.680 --> 00:25:45.039
<v Speaker 2>there's not part and still more need excuse.

358
00:25:47.720 --> 00:25:50.319
<v Speaker 8>Bill C fifteen, the Budget Implementation Act, is currently in

359
00:25:50.359 --> 00:25:53.200
<v Speaker 8>the committee and if it doesn't have the amendments that

360
00:25:53.920 --> 00:25:57.200
<v Speaker 8>you are demanding, would you would you support the bill.

361
00:25:57.119 --> 00:26:01.359
<v Speaker 2>And not a chance I don't support. The ministers of

362
00:26:01.440 --> 00:26:04.880
<v Speaker 2>this government get the right as individuals to exempt anyone

363
00:26:04.960 --> 00:26:07.279
<v Speaker 2>they see fit to exempt from the operation of a

364
00:26:07.359 --> 00:26:10.559
<v Speaker 2>federal law. And then the bill says, I read it,

365
00:26:10.839 --> 00:26:15.160
<v Speaker 2>we'll make this public as soon as it is feasible,

366
00:26:16.200 --> 00:26:19.039
<v Speaker 2>there's no deadline on that, and will provide the reasons

367
00:26:19.079 --> 00:26:20.599
<v Speaker 2>we did this. But we don't have to provide all

368
00:26:20.599 --> 00:26:22.480
<v Speaker 2>the reasons. We don't have to say anything we think

369
00:26:22.599 --> 00:26:26.000
<v Speaker 2>is confidential. This is not cabinet. C five was bad

370
00:26:26.160 --> 00:26:29.960
<v Speaker 2>enough that Cabinet as a whole could decide this is

371
00:26:30.039 --> 00:26:33.759
<v Speaker 2>a project of national significance and therefore it can break

372
00:26:33.880 --> 00:26:39.039
<v Speaker 2>other laws. This is an individual minister. There's not a

373
00:26:39.160 --> 00:26:41.279
<v Speaker 2>chance in the world that if Division five the Red

374
00:26:41.319 --> 00:26:44.799
<v Speaker 2>Tape Production Act in C. Fifteen reads as it does now,

375
00:26:45.240 --> 00:26:47.799
<v Speaker 2>that I could possibly vote for it. But there's also

376
00:26:47.960 --> 00:26:50.400
<v Speaker 2>other sections that concern me. I don't know why they're

377
00:26:50.440 --> 00:26:54.400
<v Speaker 2>amending the International River's Improvement Act or the Wildlife Act,

378
00:26:54.480 --> 00:26:56.680
<v Speaker 2>why these things need to be amended in C. Fifteen,

379
00:26:57.200 --> 00:26:59.480
<v Speaker 2>But we will certainly be digging into it and providing

380
00:26:59.559 --> 00:27:03.720
<v Speaker 2>multiple amendments. But again, it's only to the Finance committee

381
00:27:03.759 --> 00:27:06.880
<v Speaker 2>that touches many other areas of public policy. I also

382
00:27:07.000 --> 00:27:11.680
<v Speaker 2>can't support Bill C fourteen which has had which is

383
00:27:11.720 --> 00:27:15.480
<v Speaker 2>the reverse onus on bail provisions. And I certainly can't

384
00:27:15.519 --> 00:27:20.480
<v Speaker 2>support Well, we'll see what happens with how they reintroduced

385
00:27:20.519 --> 00:27:24.720
<v Speaker 2>Bill C two, which was the Strong Borters Act. There's

386
00:27:24.960 --> 00:27:27.559
<v Speaker 2>a lot that the government has put forward and the

387
00:27:27.640 --> 00:27:30.640
<v Speaker 2>ones that still remain to be reviewed. I could support

388
00:27:30.759 --> 00:27:34.279
<v Speaker 2>C sixteen, especially as it relates to intimate partner violence,

389
00:27:34.680 --> 00:27:38.359
<v Speaker 2>but the idea in C fourteen and this passed on division.

390
00:27:38.480 --> 00:27:41.680
<v Speaker 2>By the way, Bill C fourteen that puts a reverse

391
00:27:41.839 --> 00:27:46.039
<v Speaker 2>onus on someone requesting bail violates fundamental principles that go

392
00:27:46.160 --> 00:27:50.880
<v Speaker 2>back hundreds of years of British common law understanding of

393
00:27:51.200 --> 00:27:55.440
<v Speaker 2>innocent until proven guilty. So there's a lot here to

394
00:27:55.559 --> 00:27:57.599
<v Speaker 2>deal with. It's in some ways it's been a very

395
00:27:57.720 --> 00:28:02.680
<v Speaker 2>thin legislative agenda. It's the election, but the things that

396
00:28:02.799 --> 00:28:06.880
<v Speaker 2>have been carried so far are quite appalling. I think

397
00:28:06.920 --> 00:28:09.079
<v Speaker 2>we're going to need much more time in the committee.

398
00:28:09.119 --> 00:28:10.839
<v Speaker 2>Not that I'm against it, but by the way, if

399
00:28:10.880 --> 00:28:14.440
<v Speaker 2>you look at C fifteen, at the expropriation rules around

400
00:28:14.519 --> 00:28:18.640
<v Speaker 2>high speed rail, those should take a full amount of study,

401
00:28:19.000 --> 00:28:21.319
<v Speaker 2>and they should be in the Transport Committee and not

402
00:28:21.480 --> 00:28:26.319
<v Speaker 2>in the Finance Committee. But there's it's long, complicated and

403
00:28:27.200 --> 00:28:32.119
<v Speaker 2>it requires more than the kind of non review we've

404
00:28:32.200 --> 00:28:36.559
<v Speaker 2>had in committees up to this point. And in any case,

405
00:28:37.039 --> 00:28:43.000
<v Speaker 2>C fifteen is the Budget Implementation Act. Is appalling in

406
00:28:43.200 --> 00:28:46.039
<v Speaker 2>thinking that it's okay to put forward the notion that

407
00:28:46.160 --> 00:28:49.720
<v Speaker 2>in order to cut red tape, an individual minister can

408
00:28:49.799 --> 00:28:52.720
<v Speaker 2>exempt an entity from the operation of federal law.

409
00:28:53.559 --> 00:28:57.000
<v Speaker 9>You use teflon to describe Prime Minister Carneie. Do you

410
00:28:57.119 --> 00:28:59.079
<v Speaker 9>really feel that way given the fact that it's possible

411
00:28:59.119 --> 00:29:01.400
<v Speaker 9>that looks like he's being pleased by both China and

412
00:29:01.680 --> 00:29:03.920
<v Speaker 9>the US at the same time, And how do you

413
00:29:03.960 --> 00:29:04.960
<v Speaker 9>think he'll do well?

414
00:29:05.200 --> 00:29:07.400
<v Speaker 2>I think what I was talking about is domestic politics.

415
00:29:07.799 --> 00:29:10.359
<v Speaker 2>Canadians want a leader that can stand up to Trump.

416
00:29:10.559 --> 00:29:13.559
<v Speaker 2>We wanted elbows up. I think for a while there

417
00:29:13.559 --> 00:29:16.160
<v Speaker 2>it looked like mister Karney had lost his elbows and

418
00:29:16.359 --> 00:29:20.400
<v Speaker 2>he found them in Davos in rhetorical sense, so that's good.

419
00:29:20.680 --> 00:29:22.880
<v Speaker 2>Being squeezed by China and indiot doesn't have anything to

420
00:29:22.960 --> 00:29:26.759
<v Speaker 2>do with teflon. Within the Canadian public opinion polling, mister

421
00:29:26.880 --> 00:29:31.119
<v Speaker 2>Carney is doing extremely well. Canadians are giving him their

422
00:29:31.160 --> 00:29:34.680
<v Speaker 2>confidence and as he climbs, mister Qualia falls further behind.

423
00:29:35.200 --> 00:29:37.319
<v Speaker 2>And it's not a two party system as much as

424
00:29:37.359 --> 00:29:39.880
<v Speaker 2>the Liberals and Conservatives would like that. We need to

425
00:29:39.920 --> 00:29:42.240
<v Speaker 2>see who does the NDP choose as their next leader.

426
00:29:42.759 --> 00:29:45.720
<v Speaker 2>The Green Parties in good shape. I'm really pleased that

427
00:29:45.839 --> 00:29:49.400
<v Speaker 2>we are important my colleagues and the NDP. It'd be

428
00:29:49.440 --> 00:29:52.160
<v Speaker 2>a while before they consider, but we have We're debt free,

429
00:29:52.400 --> 00:29:54.599
<v Speaker 2>got money in the bank. If there's an election, so

430
00:29:54.759 --> 00:29:58.319
<v Speaker 2>be it. We have candidates nominated, especially in those ridings

431
00:29:58.559 --> 00:30:01.960
<v Speaker 2>like my deputy leader, Mike Morris and Kitchener Center. A

432
00:30:02.039 --> 00:30:05.279
<v Speaker 2>snap election would benefit us because we could get more

433
00:30:05.440 --> 00:30:09.319
<v Speaker 2>Greens selected more quickly. But in the meantime, the Canadians

434
00:30:09.359 --> 00:30:11.680
<v Speaker 2>don't want a snap election and I think that will constrain.

435
00:30:12.519 --> 00:30:17.319
<v Speaker 2>Never forget where mister Sheer and Scott Read, my dear friend,

436
00:30:17.440 --> 00:30:20.960
<v Speaker 2>were during the budget vote in hiding behind the curtains.

437
00:30:21.400 --> 00:30:24.480
<v Speaker 2>That wasn't a bad move because given that we can

438
00:30:24.559 --> 00:30:27.000
<v Speaker 2>now have remote voting on our voting app, it's no

439
00:30:27.119 --> 00:30:29.240
<v Speaker 2>longer easy to count up the votes and figure out

440
00:30:29.240 --> 00:30:32.079
<v Speaker 2>which way things are going. So the number of MPs

441
00:30:32.119 --> 00:30:34.920
<v Speaker 2>who weren't in the room to stand and be counted

442
00:30:34.960 --> 00:30:36.799
<v Speaker 2>as they voted on the budget, which is why I

443
00:30:36.960 --> 00:30:38.960
<v Speaker 2>was physically in the room to stand and be counted.

444
00:30:39.480 --> 00:30:41.720
<v Speaker 2>I think that there'll be enough people who would the

445
00:30:41.799 --> 00:30:44.799
<v Speaker 2>notion of a spring election will be either in real

446
00:30:44.880 --> 00:30:47.160
<v Speaker 2>life hide behind the curtains, or in some other way

447
00:30:47.480 --> 00:30:51.039
<v Speaker 2>make sure there's no election, because particularly the NDP and

448
00:30:51.160 --> 00:30:53.920
<v Speaker 2>the Conservatives don't want one right now. The party that

449
00:30:53.960 --> 00:30:55.920
<v Speaker 2>would want one would be Greens or Liberals.

450
00:30:57.400 --> 00:31:01.559
<v Speaker 10>That's fere not Minister Mckinnonnham saying that he thinks Parliament

451
00:31:01.640 --> 00:31:04.960
<v Speaker 10>can function, but he lays all that responsibility with Pierre Pouliev.

452
00:31:05.319 --> 00:31:07.079
<v Speaker 10>Just what do you make of that framing coming from

453
00:31:07.119 --> 00:31:08.119
<v Speaker 10>the Government House leader.

454
00:31:08.400 --> 00:31:12.880
<v Speaker 2>Well, it's not a surprise. I mean again, the Liberals

455
00:31:12.920 --> 00:31:15.519
<v Speaker 2>and the Conservatives both would like this to be a

456
00:31:15.599 --> 00:31:19.279
<v Speaker 2>two party system. And the way the April election carried

457
00:31:19.319 --> 00:31:23.440
<v Speaker 2>out and played out the narrative, and I'm not blaming

458
00:31:23.680 --> 00:31:26.480
<v Speaker 2>the people's standing for everybody, You'll agree, the narrative in

459
00:31:26.519 --> 00:31:29.799
<v Speaker 2>the media and the narrative in the large party advertising

460
00:31:30.240 --> 00:31:32.400
<v Speaker 2>was here are your choices. As if we're a presidential

461
00:31:32.440 --> 00:31:34.680
<v Speaker 2>country where you go to the polls and you expect

462
00:31:34.720 --> 00:31:37.599
<v Speaker 2>a ballot, it says Mark Kearney Pierre Produev that ballot

463
00:31:37.640 --> 00:31:41.279
<v Speaker 2>doesn't exist anywhere on the planet or certainly nowhere within Canada.

464
00:31:41.680 --> 00:31:48.519
<v Speaker 2>So it will be an ongoing problem to remind Canadians. Look,

465
00:31:48.839 --> 00:31:53.200
<v Speaker 2>it's critical that we keep this a multi party parliament.

466
00:31:53.279 --> 00:31:56.680
<v Speaker 2>It's been a multi party parliament since the late eighteen hundreds,

467
00:31:56.759 --> 00:32:00.640
<v Speaker 2>it always has been, and minority parliaments can serve us well.

468
00:32:01.200 --> 00:32:04.759
<v Speaker 2>So again, anytime that a Liberal wants to reinforce, it's

469
00:32:04.920 --> 00:32:10.240
<v Speaker 2>us or quaiev and anytime the Conservatives want to emphasize,

470
00:32:10.720 --> 00:32:15.480
<v Speaker 2>it's us or the Liberals. Again, it's typical. No surprise.

471
00:32:16.960 --> 00:32:19.920
<v Speaker 6>Updates on Green Parties leadership race in becoming meet.

472
00:32:20.000 --> 00:32:22.200
<v Speaker 2>So oh yes, well, I'm not on the committee that's

473
00:32:22.200 --> 00:32:25.119
<v Speaker 2>making those decisions, but I know they're meeting regularly, so

474
00:32:25.279 --> 00:32:27.759
<v Speaker 2>there will be an announcement and I don't know when,

475
00:32:28.440 --> 00:32:31.519
<v Speaker 2>but I would I think it's I don't want to

476
00:32:31.559 --> 00:32:33.839
<v Speaker 2>go out and a limit say something that I'm my

477
00:32:34.000 --> 00:32:35.559
<v Speaker 2>guess would be, and I have to be honest with

478
00:32:35.640 --> 00:32:37.920
<v Speaker 2>you as a guest, is that the leadership race will

479
00:32:37.920 --> 00:32:41.359
<v Speaker 2>be in and done within calendar twenty twenty six. And

480
00:32:41.599 --> 00:32:45.839
<v Speaker 2>I'll be very happy at an in person convention to

481
00:32:46.079 --> 00:32:49.000
<v Speaker 2>stand there and say I'm now passing the torch to

482
00:32:49.720 --> 00:32:54.240
<v Speaker 2>either a team of co leaders or a new sole leader.

483
00:32:54.839 --> 00:33:01.000
<v Speaker 2>And with having used the leadership race to expand and

484
00:33:01.119 --> 00:33:03.440
<v Speaker 2>build the party more so, I'm looking forward to it.

485
00:33:03.559 --> 00:33:05.480
<v Speaker 2>But I don't know the dates because they haven't been

486
00:33:05.519 --> 00:33:15.200
<v Speaker 2>selected yet. Yeah, Mercy, and please have a look at

487
00:33:15.279 --> 00:33:18.599
<v Speaker 2>pages three oh one to three oh four of the

488
00:33:19.200 --> 00:33:23.720
<v Speaker 2>six hundred page plus Bill C fifteen and see if

489
00:33:23.960 --> 00:33:28.079
<v Speaker 2>if you don't think it's quite a shocking approach to

490
00:33:28.240 --> 00:33:32.119
<v Speaker 2>governance to say any individual minister can exempt any entity

491
00:33:32.559 --> 00:33:36.160
<v Speaker 2>from a law in their jurisdiction if they think it's

492
00:33:36.240 --> 00:33:41.119
<v Speaker 2>in the public interest by themselves one minister. Shocking. Thank

493
00:33:41.160 --> 00:33:41.960
<v Speaker 2>you very much, Mercy.

494
00:33:49.920 --> 00:33:54.839
<v Speaker 11>Good morning, Dad Ramon Melci, thanks for being here today

501
00:34:34.760 --> 00:34:39.360
<v Speaker 11>remtna al ris. Last week in Davos, Prime Minister Carne

502
00:34:39.840 --> 00:34:43.039
<v Speaker 11>delivered a speech on the international stage that was both

503
00:34:43.119 --> 00:34:48.239
<v Speaker 11>forthright and honest. Conservative leader Pierre Poliev effectively said the

504
00:34:48.320 --> 00:34:52.920
<v Speaker 11>Prime Minister's speech was quote, well crafted and eloquently delivered unquote.

505
00:34:53.360 --> 00:34:57.920
<v Speaker 11>Mister Polieve added that Conservatives are as always willing to

506
00:34:58.000 --> 00:35:01.199
<v Speaker 11>work with the Prime Minister to to quote, turn these

507
00:35:01.280 --> 00:35:06.239
<v Speaker 11>words into action. Well, now he has an opportunity to

508
00:35:06.360 --> 00:35:09.079
<v Speaker 11>do just that, to work with us in the House

509
00:35:09.159 --> 00:35:12.760
<v Speaker 11>of Commons, to collaborate. We will take him at his

510
00:35:12.880 --> 00:35:17.320
<v Speaker 11>word and accept his outreached hand to work together at

511
00:35:17.360 --> 00:35:20.199
<v Speaker 11>this very challenging time in our nation's history.

512
00:35:21.079 --> 00:35:22.920
<v Speaker 6>Now that means some tangible things.

513
00:35:23.880 --> 00:35:27.159
<v Speaker 11>He's going to have to apply himself to this, to

514
00:35:27.239 --> 00:35:32.400
<v Speaker 11>work constructively on legislation and not obstruct to move ahead

515
00:35:32.440 --> 00:35:37.480
<v Speaker 11>with legislation in the House and in committees, including quickly

516
00:35:37.559 --> 00:35:42.360
<v Speaker 11>adopt a bill to provide immediate grocery relief to Canadians.

517
00:35:43.000 --> 00:35:45.000
<v Speaker 11>In his letter to the Prime Minister last week, mister

518
00:35:45.079 --> 00:35:47.639
<v Speaker 11>Polyff stated that he would fast track ideas that make

519
00:35:47.719 --> 00:35:51.320
<v Speaker 11>food affordable. He has that chance with these brand new

520
00:35:51.400 --> 00:35:55.880
<v Speaker 11>affordability measures that you heard the Prime Minister announce moments ago.

521
00:35:57.000 --> 00:36:01.920
<v Speaker 11>He also has an opportunity to quickly expedite the Carnie Plan.

522
00:36:02.920 --> 00:36:06.480
<v Speaker 11>The Budget Implementation Act, an act to grow our economy,

523
00:36:07.239 --> 00:36:11.920
<v Speaker 11>to create opportunities in new markets, and to get and

524
00:36:12.079 --> 00:36:16.119
<v Speaker 11>secure a trillion dollars of new investment in this country.

525
00:36:16.880 --> 00:36:20.960
<v Speaker 11>We want mister Polyev to commit to a reasonable timeline

526
00:36:21.239 --> 00:36:24.360
<v Speaker 11>for debate at report stage and third reading in the

527
00:36:24.400 --> 00:36:29.960
<v Speaker 11>House of Commons. This legislation provides important assistance to grow

528
00:36:29.960 --> 00:36:36.000
<v Speaker 11>our economy, to create jobs and help Canadians with these

529
00:36:36.159 --> 00:36:41.840
<v Speaker 11>challenging times. Additionally, we call on mister Polyev to tell

530
00:36:41.960 --> 00:36:45.639
<v Speaker 11>Conservative Senators to stay out of the way of passage

531
00:36:45.679 --> 00:36:48.880
<v Speaker 11>of Bill C four, which provides an income tax cut

532
00:36:48.960 --> 00:36:53.960
<v Speaker 11>to Canadians, a GSC housing rebate, and which formally eliminates

533
00:36:54.039 --> 00:36:58.280
<v Speaker 11>the consumer carbon tax. We want Conservative senators to stay

534
00:36:58.280 --> 00:37:01.960
<v Speaker 11>out of the way of this legislation. The Conservatives slow

535
00:37:02.039 --> 00:37:04.519
<v Speaker 11>walk to this bill as all of you know in

536
00:37:04.679 --> 00:37:07.360
<v Speaker 11>Parliament in the fall, and we want to make sure

537
00:37:07.440 --> 00:37:09.760
<v Speaker 11>Conservative senators don't do the same thing.

538
00:37:11.320 --> 00:37:11.840
<v Speaker 6>Pargayer.

539
00:37:13.239 --> 00:37:16.760
<v Speaker 11>Mister Poliev should also support the quick passage of Bills

540
00:37:16.840 --> 00:37:22.000
<v Speaker 11>C fourteen and C sixteen, important justice legislation before the

541
00:37:22.079 --> 00:37:27.159
<v Speaker 11>House currently and before committees, obviously to protect victims of crime,

542
00:37:27.920 --> 00:37:32.400
<v Speaker 11>reform the bail system, address extortion and child pornography.

543
00:37:33.159 --> 00:37:34.320
<v Speaker 6>He should finally.

544
00:37:34.000 --> 00:37:37.159
<v Speaker 11>Support giving police the tools they need with a fair

545
00:37:37.480 --> 00:37:42.760
<v Speaker 11>and reasonable lawful access regime. It's time for the Conservatives

546
00:37:43.559 --> 00:37:47.559
<v Speaker 11>to put up or shut up on crime. A suite

547
00:37:47.800 --> 00:37:51.360
<v Speaker 11>and historic suite of legislation to deal with crime in

548
00:37:51.440 --> 00:37:55.400
<v Speaker 11>our communities is before Parliament and we are telling mister

549
00:37:55.480 --> 00:37:59.599
<v Speaker 11>Poliev get out of the way, free your MPs to

550
00:37:59.760 --> 00:38:03.159
<v Speaker 11>vote for this legislation that will deal with.

551
00:38:03.280 --> 00:38:05.079
<v Speaker 6>Crime in Canadian communities.

552
00:38:06.159 --> 00:38:09.800
<v Speaker 11>We also call on mister Pouliev to ensure to assure

553
00:38:09.880 --> 00:38:13.440
<v Speaker 11>Canadians that Conservative senators do not hold up passage of

554
00:38:13.519 --> 00:38:17.159
<v Speaker 11>another piece of crime legislation, Bill C twelve, which secures

555
00:38:17.239 --> 00:38:21.599
<v Speaker 11>our borders and improves our immigration system. Now, all of

556
00:38:21.639 --> 00:38:24.519
<v Speaker 11>the issues that I've outlined are things that Conservatives have

557
00:38:24.639 --> 00:38:30.679
<v Speaker 11>called for, including Canadians, maybe especially Canadians in Conservative ridings.

558
00:38:31.440 --> 00:38:35.280
<v Speaker 11>These are tangible things that mister Pouliev could do right

559
00:38:35.639 --> 00:38:39.960
<v Speaker 11>now if he is serious about working together for Canadians.

560
00:38:40.679 --> 00:38:43.480
<v Speaker 11>We are willing to have the house sit extended hours

561
00:38:43.880 --> 00:38:48.480
<v Speaker 11>this week, next week, as long as it takes, if required,

562
00:38:48.800 --> 00:38:52.400
<v Speaker 11>to make progress. This is a time of anxiety for

563
00:38:52.519 --> 00:38:58.239
<v Speaker 11>many Canadians. Start anxiety plas amb de canadien. Throughout our

564
00:38:58.280 --> 00:39:01.440
<v Speaker 11>towns and cities, many of our neighbors share the same worry.

565
00:39:02.039 --> 00:39:05.119
<v Speaker 11>How will I afford the cost of living? How secure

566
00:39:05.199 --> 00:39:08.280
<v Speaker 11>is my job an economy and a trading environment that

567
00:39:08.400 --> 00:39:12.639
<v Speaker 11>is rapidly changing. Safe am I on the streets of

568
00:39:12.760 --> 00:39:16.000
<v Speaker 11>my community? And how safe is my country in a

569
00:39:16.079 --> 00:39:20.079
<v Speaker 11>world where instability and conflict has become all too commonplace?

570
00:39:20.920 --> 00:39:23.559
<v Speaker 11>And how does Canada adjust to a new world where

571
00:39:23.599 --> 00:39:26.920
<v Speaker 11>we can no longer count on trading relationships of the

572
00:39:27.000 --> 00:39:32.480
<v Speaker 11>past that brought us economic prosperity here at home. Voila

573
00:39:32.920 --> 00:39:38.400
<v Speaker 11>de casac These are all important questions. Last week in Davos,

574
00:39:38.480 --> 00:39:42.639
<v Speaker 11>Prime Minister Carne outlined Canada's approach to the new world reality,

575
00:39:43.119 --> 00:39:47.320
<v Speaker 11>one that is both principled and pragmatic. And since taking

576
00:39:47.400 --> 00:39:50.400
<v Speaker 11>office last spring, our government has moved rapidly to improve

577
00:39:50.440 --> 00:39:53.519
<v Speaker 11>the lives of Canadians and strengthen our place in the world.

578
00:39:54.280 --> 00:39:57.800
<v Speaker 11>Among other things, the Carney Plan cuts income taxes for

579
00:39:57.920 --> 00:40:02.920
<v Speaker 11>millions of Canadians, cuts taxes on capital gains and business investment,

580
00:40:03.519 --> 00:40:07.679
<v Speaker 11>removes all federal barriers to enter provincial trade, fast tracks

581
00:40:07.800 --> 00:40:12.039
<v Speaker 11>a trillion with a t dollars of investment in energy,

582
00:40:12.599 --> 00:40:17.000
<v Speaker 11>AI and critical minerals. Doubles are defense spending by twenty

583
00:40:17.119 --> 00:40:22.400
<v Speaker 11>thirty and rapidly diversifies trade markets abroad. We have a

584
00:40:22.519 --> 00:40:26.960
<v Speaker 11>brand new comprehensive strategic partnership with the European Union on defense.

585
00:40:27.400 --> 00:40:31.199
<v Speaker 11>We've signed twelve other trade and security deals on four continents.

586
00:40:31.639 --> 00:40:35.000
<v Speaker 11>In recent days. We have concluded new strategic partnerships with

587
00:40:35.199 --> 00:40:38.440
<v Speaker 11>China and cutter and we are currently negotiating free trade

588
00:40:38.480 --> 00:40:44.239
<v Speaker 11>packs with India, Assian, Thailand and Philippines. In short, the

589
00:40:44.280 --> 00:40:46.840
<v Speaker 11>Prime Minister has outlined to his fellow world leaders the

590
00:40:46.960 --> 00:40:50.679
<v Speaker 11>path we are now on as Canadians. The primimnist at

592
00:40:59.159 --> 00:41:00.639
<v Speaker 6>It is in this time of crisis.

593
00:41:01.159 --> 00:41:04.159
<v Speaker 11>This is the leadership the Canadians asked for when they

594
00:41:04.199 --> 00:41:06.920
<v Speaker 11>elected a new government last April.

606
00:42:11.440 --> 00:42:14.800
<v Speaker 11>Poliev to make good on his promise. Beyond the bills

607
00:42:14.840 --> 00:42:18.719
<v Speaker 11>I've mentioned, there will be many more pieces of important

608
00:42:18.840 --> 00:42:23.360
<v Speaker 11>legislation to implement mister Carney's plan for Canada in the

609
00:42:23.480 --> 00:42:27.599
<v Speaker 11>coming weeks. Just earlier this morning, the Prime Minister announced

610
00:42:27.639 --> 00:42:30.119
<v Speaker 11>a broad package of measures to make groceries and other

611
00:42:30.280 --> 00:42:35.199
<v Speaker 11>essentials more affordable. That includes legislation for the new Canada

612
00:42:35.280 --> 00:42:39.599
<v Speaker 11>Groceries and Essentials Benefit formerly known as the GST credit.

613
00:42:39.679 --> 00:42:42.760
<v Speaker 11>The government is increasing its amount by twenty five percent

614
00:42:42.880 --> 00:42:46.119
<v Speaker 11>for five years beginning this July, and in addition to that,

615
00:42:46.239 --> 00:42:49.480
<v Speaker 11>we're providing a one time payment equivalent to a fifty

616
00:42:49.519 --> 00:42:53.760
<v Speaker 11>percent increase this year. Combined, that means a family of

617
00:42:53.840 --> 00:42:56.559
<v Speaker 11>four will receive up to eighteen hundred and ninety dollars

618
00:42:56.639 --> 00:42:59.400
<v Speaker 11>this year and about fourteen hundred dollars a year for

619
00:42:59.480 --> 00:43:02.239
<v Speaker 11>the next four years, and a single person will receive

620
00:43:02.320 --> 00:43:04.679
<v Speaker 11>up to nine hundred and fifty dollars this year and

621
00:43:04.760 --> 00:43:07.840
<v Speaker 11>about seven hundred dollars a year for the next four years.

622
00:43:08.719 --> 00:43:11.800
<v Speaker 11>The new benefit will provide additional significant support for more

623
00:43:11.880 --> 00:43:17.000
<v Speaker 11>than twelve million Canadians. There should be no delay, no

624
00:43:17.239 --> 00:43:21.039
<v Speaker 11>delay in moving ahead with this measure. We'll be counting

625
00:43:21.159 --> 00:43:25.400
<v Speaker 11>on mister Polyev and the Conservatives to pass this bill

626
00:43:25.840 --> 00:43:29.400
<v Speaker 11>quickly so to sum up MP's will have a busy

627
00:43:29.440 --> 00:43:34.000

628
00:43:34.119 --> 00:43:38.079
<v Speaker 11>no less than for parliament parliamentarians to get to work

629
00:43:38.519 --> 00:43:42.119
<v Speaker 11>and pass the Carni Plan. I will be working very

676
00:47:57.599 --> 00:47:59.960
<v Speaker 10>Minister, Kay, you didn't mention Bill C nine the hate

677
00:48:00.000 --> 00:48:02.159
<v Speaker 10>speech lines one of the bills you want conservative help on.

678
00:48:02.639 --> 00:48:05.039
<v Speaker 10>There's been a lot of pushback from religious communities saying

679
00:48:05.119 --> 00:48:07.159
<v Speaker 10>this bill goes too far. They're worried about a trampling

680
00:48:07.199 --> 00:48:09.400
<v Speaker 10>on their rights. Is this a signal from the government

681
00:48:09.519 --> 00:48:11.679
<v Speaker 10>that this bill needs more work or you need to

682
00:48:12.039 --> 00:48:13.880
<v Speaker 10>retool the bill to get people on board with.

683
00:48:13.920 --> 00:48:14.480
<v Speaker 6>What you want to do.

684
00:48:14.679 --> 00:48:21.800
<v Speaker 11>I remember when conservatives talked about protecting synagogues, mosques, other churches,

685
00:48:21.920 --> 00:48:23.920
<v Speaker 11>other places of worship in this country.

686
00:48:24.000 --> 00:48:25.920
<v Speaker 6>That build is exactly that. We hope they pass it

687
00:48:26.039 --> 00:48:26.440
<v Speaker 6>very quickly.

688
00:48:27.960 --> 00:48:30.639
<v Speaker 4>Proposal though, to put C nine to the side in

689
00:48:30.800 --> 00:48:33.679
<v Speaker 4>order for them for them to say fast track bail

690
00:48:33.920 --> 00:48:36.400
<v Speaker 4>the bail bill C fourteen, C sixteen in their other

691
00:48:36.480 --> 00:48:37.280
<v Speaker 4>crime legislation.

692
00:48:37.400 --> 00:48:40.480
<v Speaker 11>Here's what I'm open to, Conservatives getting out of the

693
00:48:40.519 --> 00:48:45.159
<v Speaker 11>way of the most ambitious crime agenda and a generation

694
00:48:45.840 --> 00:48:50.559
<v Speaker 11>a series of measures, a series of bills that would

695
00:48:51.039 --> 00:48:55.239
<v Speaker 11>deal with extortion, that would deal with child pornography, that

696
00:48:55.320 --> 00:48:59.960
<v Speaker 11>would protect victims and particularly women and victims of intimate

697
00:49:00.079 --> 00:49:04.199
<v Speaker 11>partner violence, that would protect places of worship. This is

698
00:49:04.320 --> 00:49:07.760
<v Speaker 11>a broad and expansive crime agenda. Conservatives used to be

699
00:49:07.880 --> 00:49:11.800
<v Speaker 11>for that. We are going to be telling Conservatives that

700
00:49:11.920 --> 00:49:14.559
<v Speaker 11>they have a suite of crime measures in front of

701
00:49:14.639 --> 00:49:17.639
<v Speaker 11>them that they can pass today, to.

702
00:49:17.679 --> 00:49:20.760
<v Speaker 15>Say, hey, you know, you know, work with us on

703
00:49:20.960 --> 00:49:23.960
<v Speaker 15>these crime bills. They're raising issues with one particular piece

704
00:49:23.960 --> 00:49:25.960
<v Speaker 15>of legislation. Why not just push out the side in

705
00:49:26.039 --> 00:49:28.000
<v Speaker 15>this spirit of cooperation and help get things passed.

706
00:49:28.159 --> 00:49:31.280
<v Speaker 6>Look, we're for our bills. They want to pass the bill,

707
00:49:31.360 --> 00:49:32.960
<v Speaker 6>We'll pass the bill. How about that.

708
00:49:33.159 --> 00:49:35.559
<v Speaker 16>You've spoken a lot about the Conservatives.

709
00:49:35.679 --> 00:49:37.280
<v Speaker 10>You've spoken a lot about the Conservatives.

710
00:49:37.599 --> 00:49:40.159
<v Speaker 15>Can you talk about whether or not the Block is

711
00:49:40.239 --> 00:49:43.440
<v Speaker 15>prepared to work with you to pass the Budget Implementation

712
00:49:43.559 --> 00:49:44.400
<v Speaker 15>Act through committees.

713
00:49:44.800 --> 00:49:46.519
<v Speaker 6>I have no idea. You'll have to ask the Block.

714
00:49:46.559 --> 00:49:47.039
<v Speaker 6>Quebec WUA.

715
00:49:47.360 --> 00:49:53.920
<v Speaker 11>Obviously people in Block writings, and I live in Quebec

716
00:49:54.000 --> 00:50:00.519
<v Speaker 11>represented Quebec writing. Quebecers did not vote for what they're

717
00:50:00.559 --> 00:50:04.280

00:52:09.960 --> 00:52:11.320
<v Speaker 6>Place a consertaives.

745
00:52:11.320 --> 00:52:13.119
<v Speaker 4>I'm talking about religious leaders in this country that are

746
00:52:13.119 --> 00:52:14.400
<v Speaker 4>expressing concern about this bill.

747
00:52:14.679 --> 00:52:17.599
<v Speaker 11>Well, we're obviously sensitive and we'll listen to all Canadians

748
00:52:17.800 --> 00:52:21.519
<v Speaker 11>as we do on all bills, but we very much

749
00:52:22.679 --> 00:52:26.840
<v Speaker 11>think it's important the principles that are in Bill C nine.

750
00:52:26.920 --> 00:52:29.639
<v Speaker 11>We are going to continue to put them, along with

751
00:52:29.800 --> 00:52:33.679
<v Speaker 11>other key pieces of legislation, as part of the most

752
00:52:33.719 --> 00:52:36.920
<v Speaker 11>ambitious crime fighting agenda any government has put in place.

753
00:52:36.760 --> 00:52:37.400
<v Speaker 6>In a generation.

754
00:52:41.079 --> 00:52:45.679
<v Speaker 9>Mister Rickinn, has your government considered snap election if you're

755
00:52:45.880 --> 00:52:48.199
<v Speaker 9>unable to convince more floor crossers to come over to

756
00:52:48.239 --> 00:52:50.880
<v Speaker 9>the Liberals? Is that in play at all? How was

757
00:52:50.960 --> 00:52:51.599
<v Speaker 9>that discussed?

758
00:52:51.960 --> 00:52:54.960
<v Speaker 11>No, As I just said, I think this parliament can work.

759
00:52:55.360 --> 00:52:58.960
<v Speaker 11>I think Canadians express themselves only last April, the end

760
00:52:59.000 --> 00:53:03.039
<v Speaker 11>of April on the Carni Plan, on the plan to

761
00:53:03.679 --> 00:53:08.400
<v Speaker 11>diversify trade markets, to create opportunities, to attract a trillion

762
00:53:08.480 --> 00:53:11.119
<v Speaker 11>dollars of investment and to make life more affordable. There

763
00:53:11.239 --> 00:53:17.599
<v Speaker 11>is no reason that plan will cannot get unless mister

764
00:53:17.679 --> 00:53:21.519
<v Speaker 11>Polyev continues with his obstruction there's no way that that

765
00:53:21.679 --> 00:53:25.960
<v Speaker 11>plan should not receive the approval of this parliament. There

766
00:53:26.079 --> 00:53:30.280
<v Speaker 11>is a majority in that room for that plan. Mister

767
00:53:30.360 --> 00:53:33.599
<v Speaker 11>Polief has to get out of the way and allow

768
00:53:33.679 --> 00:53:36.679
<v Speaker 11>his MPs to vote on an ambitious crime fighting agenda,

769
00:53:36.960 --> 00:53:39.360
<v Speaker 11>to vote on a plan to grow our economy, and

770
00:53:39.440 --> 00:53:41.840
<v Speaker 11>to vote on a plan to make life more affordable

771
00:53:41.920 --> 00:53:44.480
<v Speaker 11>to Canadians. That's what we're calling on him to do today.

772
00:53:46.280 --> 00:53:48.800
<v Speaker 9>Unity, what is your government going to do in regards

773
00:53:48.840 --> 00:53:51.400
<v Speaker 9>to the two separatist movements right now in Alberta and

774
00:53:51.599 --> 00:53:55.039
<v Speaker 9>the possible referendum in Quebec as well. What kind of

775
00:53:55.119 --> 00:53:59.119
<v Speaker 9>focus will national unity and containing these separatist movements be

776
00:53:59.320 --> 00:53:59.840
<v Speaker 9>this time?

777
00:54:00.360 --> 00:54:01.559
<v Speaker 6>You know what we're going to do. We're going to

778
00:54:01.599 --> 00:54:02.480
<v Speaker 6>grow our economy.

779
00:54:02.840 --> 00:54:05.800
<v Speaker 11>We're going to create jobs, we're going to diversify trade markets,

780
00:54:05.840 --> 00:54:07.880
<v Speaker 11>we're going to make life more affordable, and we're going

781
00:54:07.960 --> 00:54:11.159
<v Speaker 11>to put an ambitious crime fighting agenda before this Parliament.

782
00:54:11.280 --> 00:54:13.199
<v Speaker 6>That's what we're gonna do. Thank you, kiss.

783
00:54:16.960 --> 00:54:25.920
<v Speaker 17>Oral questions the honor the leader of the oppositions.

784
00:54:26.519 --> 00:54:33.480
<v Speaker 3>Canadians deserve affordable groceries, but today we have learned that

785
00:54:33.599 --> 00:54:37.760
<v Speaker 3>food inflation in Canada is by far the highest in

786
00:54:37.840 --> 00:54:41.320
<v Speaker 3>the G seven. It's growing twice as fast as in

787
00:54:41.400 --> 00:54:45.320
<v Speaker 3>the US, and food inflation has doubled since this Prime

788
00:54:45.360 --> 00:54:50.239
<v Speaker 3>Minister came to power. These are If it truly were

789
00:54:50.639 --> 00:54:53.519
<v Speaker 3>external factors behind this, we wouldn't be the worst in

790
00:54:53.559 --> 00:54:59.400
<v Speaker 3>the G seven. When will the Prime Minister reverse his

791
00:54:59.559 --> 00:55:03.960
<v Speaker 3>deficit inflationary taxes so that Canadians can have affordable groceries,

792
00:55:05.079 --> 00:55:10.039
<v Speaker 3>the Honorable Minister of Finance, Mister Speaker, it's a pleasure

793
00:55:10.079 --> 00:55:15.159
<v Speaker 3>to be back, and this Monday we have good news.

794
00:55:17.880 --> 00:55:24.159
<v Speaker 3>The Canadian Groceries and Essentials Benefits will help twelve million Canadians.

795
00:55:25.639 --> 00:55:29.960
<v Speaker 3>And my Conservative friends are happy in their hearts, mister Speaker,

796
00:55:30.039 --> 00:55:34.920
<v Speaker 3>because they know this represents roughly eighteen hundred dollars for

797
00:55:34.960 --> 00:55:38.639
<v Speaker 3>a family of four and roughly nine hundred and fifty

798
00:55:38.840 --> 00:55:42.079
<v Speaker 3>for a single person this year. The Liberals support this

799
00:55:42.159 --> 00:55:45.360
<v Speaker 3>and Canadians do well. The Conservatives do as well, the

800
00:55:45.480 --> 00:55:55.159
<v Speaker 3>Honorable Leader of the Opposition, Mister Speaker. After food inflation

801
00:55:55.480 --> 00:56:00.800
<v Speaker 3>has doubled under this prime minister, and with the worst

802
00:56:01.000 --> 00:56:05.719
<v Speaker 3>food inflation in the G seven, the checks that the

803
00:56:05.760 --> 00:56:09.079
<v Speaker 3>Liberals are announcing today won't even pay for just one

804
00:56:10.880 --> 00:56:14.920
<v Speaker 3>grocery shop. Yes, the reality is that the average family

805
00:56:14.960 --> 00:56:20.440
<v Speaker 3>will have to spend seventeen thousand dollars a year for

806
00:56:20.599 --> 00:56:25.320
<v Speaker 3>grocery costs. WI will the Prime Minister reverse his taxes

807
00:56:25.360 --> 00:56:28.719
<v Speaker 3>and inflationary references so that Canadians can eat the honorable

808
00:56:29.400 --> 00:56:34.320
<v Speaker 3>Government House Leader, Mister Speaker. First and above all, we

809
00:56:34.440 --> 00:56:38.320
<v Speaker 3>we'd like to all express our solidarity with the leader

810
00:56:38.360 --> 00:56:42.559
<v Speaker 3>of the Opposition in this decisive week for him. I

811
00:56:42.719 --> 00:56:45.880
<v Speaker 3>am certain he'll be able to convince a majority of

812
00:56:46.119 --> 00:56:52.719
<v Speaker 3>his constituents to support his leadership. Second, we welcomed his

813
00:56:53.239 --> 00:56:57.280
<v Speaker 3>openness with respect to the legislative measures before this House.

814
00:56:58.079 --> 00:57:00.639
<v Speaker 3>And there is a bill that is where the Prime

815
00:57:00.639 --> 00:57:03.960
<v Speaker 3>Minister's plan for our economy to create jobs and opportunities

816
00:57:04.000 --> 00:57:06.559
<v Speaker 3>in Canada. Can he give us a date when we'll

817
00:57:06.599 --> 00:57:10.559
<v Speaker 3>be able to vote through reading of the Budgetment Implementation Act.

818
00:57:12.320 --> 00:57:15.920
<v Speaker 18>Canadians deserve affordable groceries, but under this Prime Minister's watch,

819
00:57:16.559 --> 00:57:19.239
<v Speaker 18>food price inflation is the highest in the G seven.

820
00:57:19.800 --> 00:57:21.840
<v Speaker 16>It's twice as high as in the States, twice as

821
00:57:21.920 --> 00:57:22.320
<v Speaker 16>high as.

822
00:57:22.239 --> 00:57:23.039
<v Speaker 6>What he took office.

823
00:57:23.559 --> 00:57:27.000
<v Speaker 18>He can't blame global factors when it's rising faster than

824
00:57:27.159 --> 00:57:29.559
<v Speaker 18>any other G seven country.

825
00:57:29.920 --> 00:57:34.400
<v Speaker 16>The real cause is his rising taxes on farmers.

826
00:57:34.639 --> 00:57:37.559
<v Speaker 17>For I'm going to I'm going to allow the Honorable

827
00:57:37.639 --> 00:57:43.000
<v Speaker 17>Leader of the Opposition to start that question over. I mean,

828
00:57:45.599 --> 00:57:49.079
<v Speaker 17>we need started over there and started over there, the

829
00:57:49.159 --> 00:57:51.079
<v Speaker 17>Honorable Member of the Oppositions.

830
00:57:50.519 --> 00:57:52.039
<v Speaker 6>The Speaker.

831
00:57:52.199 --> 00:57:55.280
<v Speaker 16>The Canadian people deserve affordable groceries.

832
00:57:55.360 --> 00:57:58.880
<v Speaker 18>Liberals might laugh that off, but they've given Canada the

833
00:57:59.119 --> 00:58:02.119
<v Speaker 18>worst food price inflation in the G seven. It's rising

834
00:58:02.199 --> 00:58:04.840
<v Speaker 18>twice as fast here in Canada as in the United

835
00:58:04.840 --> 00:58:07.760
<v Speaker 18>States of America. Two point two million people lined up

836
00:58:07.800 --> 00:58:11.079
<v Speaker 18>at food banks. And since this Prime Minister said that

837
00:58:11.280 --> 00:58:15.920
<v Speaker 18>he would make groceries affordable, they've actually the inflation rate

838
00:58:16.000 --> 00:58:19.639
<v Speaker 18>has actually doubled. Will the Prime Minister finally reverse his

839
00:58:19.800 --> 00:58:23.280
<v Speaker 18>inflationary deficits and taxes so Canadians going to a fourteen

840
00:58:24.760 --> 00:58:26.159
<v Speaker 18>house government healthy us.

841
00:58:27.559 --> 00:58:29.719
<v Speaker 11>Mister Speaker, we certainly want to wish the Leader of

842
00:58:29.760 --> 00:58:32.840
<v Speaker 11>the Opposition well in this very decisive and important week

843
00:58:32.920 --> 00:58:36.000
<v Speaker 11>for helping Manaul, that he will have success at his

844
00:58:36.079 --> 00:58:40.880
<v Speaker 11>party's convention. The Prime Minister's plan to grow our economy,

845
00:58:41.239 --> 00:58:45.480
<v Speaker 11>to create a trillion dollars an investment, and to protect

846
00:58:45.559 --> 00:58:49.119
<v Speaker 11>our workers and our industries from trade threats is before

847
00:58:49.199 --> 00:58:52.880
<v Speaker 11>this House Bill C fifteen. Now we take very very

848
00:58:52.960 --> 00:58:57.039
<v Speaker 11>well the leaders openness on working with us on legislation.

849
00:58:57.320 --> 00:58:59.679
<v Speaker 11>Can you give us a date, just a date the

850
00:59:00.159 --> 00:59:02.239
<v Speaker 11>words out of his both give us the date where

851
00:59:02.280 --> 00:59:04.639
<v Speaker 11>we could have third reading on the BIA Mister.

852
00:59:04.519 --> 00:59:08.639
<v Speaker 17>Speaker, the honorable Leader of the Opposition.

853
00:59:09.400 --> 00:59:12.239
<v Speaker 18>Well, mister Speaker, in the spirit of solidarity, why won't

854
00:59:12.280 --> 00:59:14.840
<v Speaker 18>they agree with the Canadian people that we should get

855
00:59:14.920 --> 00:59:17.440
<v Speaker 18>rid of all the hidden taxes that they've been.

856
00:59:17.400 --> 00:59:18.159
<v Speaker 6>Posed to approach.

857
00:59:21.159 --> 00:59:23.960
<v Speaker 18>There's the liberal fuel standard tax, which is seven cents

858
00:59:24.000 --> 00:59:28.079
<v Speaker 18>a leader on farmers, truckers and those who bring us

859
00:59:28.159 --> 00:59:31.159
<v Speaker 18>our food. There's the industrial carbon tax on farm equipment

860
00:59:31.199 --> 00:59:34.679
<v Speaker 18>and fertilizer. All of this has given Canada the worst

861
00:59:35.159 --> 00:59:38.639
<v Speaker 18>food price inflation in the g seven Our food costs

862
00:59:38.679 --> 00:59:41.039
<v Speaker 18>are rising twice as fast as in the United States

863
00:59:41.079 --> 00:59:44.599
<v Speaker 18>of America. And now they promised to recycle a Trudeau

864
00:59:44.760 --> 00:59:47.320
<v Speaker 18>era rebate that won't even cover one trip to the

865
00:59:47.360 --> 00:59:47.960
<v Speaker 18>grocery store.

866
00:59:48.039 --> 00:59:53.320
<v Speaker 3>Mister speaker, lammisitly pre honorable Minister of Finance.

867
00:59:53.760 --> 00:59:56.920
<v Speaker 12>I know that it's a particularly challenging week for the

868
00:59:57.039 --> 00:59:58.679
<v Speaker 12>Leader of the Opposition.

869
00:59:58.679 --> 01:00:00.480
<v Speaker 16>But let me help baby us today.

870
01:00:00.559 --> 01:00:03.679
<v Speaker 12>We have good news for Canadians, mister speaker, it's called

871
01:00:03.719 --> 01:00:07.920
<v Speaker 12>the Canada Grocery and Essentials Benefit. Mister speaker. I know

872
01:00:08.039 --> 01:00:11.960
<v Speaker 12>in ar he's rejoicing, mister speaker, because he's been asking

873
01:00:12.079 --> 01:00:15.360
<v Speaker 12>question at this house. Now we have delivered for Canadians,

874
01:00:15.400 --> 01:00:18.360
<v Speaker 12>mister speaker, the real question all the Liberals, if you

875
01:00:18.400 --> 01:00:21.559
<v Speaker 12>are going to vote in favor Canadians orry favor? Will

876
01:00:21.679 --> 01:00:24.679
<v Speaker 12>the Conservative is good for their work and book us

877
01:00:24.800 --> 01:00:26.320
<v Speaker 12>to help Canadians.

878
01:00:27.360 --> 01:00:30.679
<v Speaker 19>The honorable leader of the oppositions, if you're only the

879
01:00:30.760 --> 01:00:34.440
<v Speaker 19>Liberals would look at the seventeen thousand, six hundred dollars

880
01:00:34.519 --> 01:00:37.519
<v Speaker 19>that the average family has to spend on groceries and

881
01:00:37.719 --> 01:00:39.400
<v Speaker 19>say that it's a time to rejoice.

882
01:00:39.880 --> 01:00:42.719
<v Speaker 18>They say that Canadians should be grateful that to be

883
01:00:42.840 --> 01:00:45.400
<v Speaker 18>lined up in record numbers at the food bank. They

884
01:00:45.440 --> 01:00:48.559
<v Speaker 18>think Canadians should thank them for having the highest food

885
01:00:48.599 --> 01:00:51.559
<v Speaker 18>inflation in the g seven twice as bad as the

886
01:00:51.679 --> 01:00:52.880
<v Speaker 18>United States of America.

887
01:00:53.159 --> 01:00:55.639
<v Speaker 16>They think that Canadians should give.

888
01:00:55.519 --> 01:00:59.920
<v Speaker 18>Them great give Liberals gratitude for having double food price inflations.

889
01:01:00.039 --> 01:01:02.840
<v Speaker 18>Since this Prime minister was elected promising to be judged

890
01:01:03.079 --> 01:01:05.360
<v Speaker 18>by the prices at the grocery store, why won't they

891
01:01:05.440 --> 01:01:09.239
<v Speaker 18>reverse their liberal taxes and debt so we can review.

892
01:01:09.400 --> 01:01:11.480
<v Speaker 17>The Honorable Minister of Gods and Family.

893
01:01:13.440 --> 01:01:15.920
<v Speaker 20>Mister Speaker, it's a good news for Canadians who are

894
01:01:15.920 --> 01:01:19.440
<v Speaker 20>struggling today. In fact, up to nineteen hundred dollars more

895
01:01:19.559 --> 01:01:22.800
<v Speaker 20>for Canadian family to help with those costs of living

896
01:01:23.119 --> 01:01:26.519
<v Speaker 20>that the Conservatism have been talking about all fall, Mister Speaker.

897
01:01:26.599 --> 01:01:29.760
<v Speaker 20>In fact, the memp from Edmonton, Manning, told a story

898
01:01:29.800 --> 01:01:32.760
<v Speaker 20>about end who was struggling with the costs of groceries.

899
01:01:32.880 --> 01:01:35.880
<v Speaker 20>Is he going to vote against Enid's desire to have

900
01:01:36.039 --> 01:01:37.599
<v Speaker 20>more money to buy grocery.

901
01:01:38.880 --> 01:01:41.960
<v Speaker 17>The Honorable leader of the opposition, Mister speaker.

902
01:01:42.079 --> 01:01:44.360
<v Speaker 18>The reality is that Eden is paying and his family

903
01:01:44.440 --> 01:01:47.000
<v Speaker 18>are paying a record high price. If Eaton is part

904
01:01:47.000 --> 01:01:49.119
<v Speaker 18>of a family of four, that family will spend over

905
01:01:49.239 --> 01:01:52.039
<v Speaker 18>seventeen thousand dollars on groceries this year.

906
01:01:52.519 --> 01:01:55.039
<v Speaker 16>That's one thousand dollars more than they did last year.

907
01:01:55.360 --> 01:01:58.400
<v Speaker 18>That's the fastest increase in the g seven and now

908
01:01:58.840 --> 01:02:01.719
<v Speaker 18>the Prime Minister has reb the Trudeau era rebate which

909
01:02:01.760 --> 01:02:05.159
<v Speaker 18>will let pass that will barely cover a few trips

910
01:02:05.199 --> 01:02:09.000
<v Speaker 18>to the grocery store, while the average family spends seventeen

911
01:02:09.239 --> 01:02:12.360
<v Speaker 18>thousand plus dollars. Why don't the guys, why doesn't the

912
01:02:12.400 --> 01:02:16.239
<v Speaker 18>Liberals stop increasing grocery prices by getting rid of their

913
01:02:16.280 --> 01:02:22.119
<v Speaker 18>inflationary depthicits and taxes on food menus.

914
01:02:21.159 --> 01:02:23.000
<v Speaker 3>To the Honorable Minister of Finance.

915
01:02:22.800 --> 01:02:25.320
<v Speaker 12>Your speaker, I know that the leader of the opposition

916
01:02:25.480 --> 01:02:28.199
<v Speaker 12>is a bit concerned about the week ahead, but let

917
01:02:28.320 --> 01:02:29.840
<v Speaker 12>me quote the letter he sent us.

918
01:02:29.800 --> 01:02:30.920
<v Speaker 18>On January twenty fourth.

919
01:02:31.000 --> 01:02:33.880
<v Speaker 12>Mister Speaker, we wouldn't assume that it would be good

920
01:02:33.920 --> 01:02:34.639
<v Speaker 12>for his words.

921
01:02:34.679 --> 01:02:37.360
<v Speaker 16>He said, if you have other ideas that make.

922
01:02:37.280 --> 01:02:41.280
<v Speaker 12>Food affordable, we will fast truck dead. Mystery speaker, Well,

923
01:02:41.360 --> 01:02:43.920
<v Speaker 12>I have been news for him. It's called the Canada

924
01:02:44.039 --> 01:02:49.079
<v Speaker 12>Grocery and Essentials Benefit. Mister speaker, helping twelve millions Canadians

925
01:02:49.440 --> 01:02:51.159
<v Speaker 12>the puestion we have on this side.

926
01:02:51.480 --> 01:02:52.960
<v Speaker 16>Will you stand up in this house?

927
01:02:53.280 --> 01:02:55.639
<v Speaker 12>Will we be good for his word and support twelve

928
01:02:55.679 --> 01:02:59.440
<v Speaker 12>million Canadians that are expecting dis government and disaster.

929
01:02:59.079 --> 01:02:59.599
<v Speaker 17>Support the.

930
01:03:02.440 --> 01:03:07.480
<v Speaker 3>Honorable Member for Saint Jean, mister speaker. Quebecer's and French

931
01:03:07.559 --> 01:03:11.880
<v Speaker 3>Canadians learned something new last Thursday. According to the Prime Minister,

932
01:03:12.000 --> 01:03:13.960
<v Speaker 3>the Battle of the Plains of Abraham was not a

933
01:03:14.039 --> 01:03:16.079
<v Speaker 3>conquest by the English. It was the beginning of a

934
01:03:16.159 --> 01:03:20.039
<v Speaker 3>great partnership. According to him, the ancestors of Quebecers and

935
01:03:20.119 --> 01:03:23.079
<v Speaker 3>English Canadians rose from the battlefield that morning and said

936
01:03:23.079 --> 01:03:26.400
<v Speaker 3>to each other, guys, let's stop fighting, celebrate our differences,

937
01:03:26.559 --> 01:03:31.239
<v Speaker 3>and build Canada. Mister speaker, if the Prime Minister wants

938
01:03:31.320 --> 01:03:34.639
<v Speaker 3>to create some new heritage minutes, will his he review

939
01:03:34.760 --> 01:03:40.320
<v Speaker 3>his history rather than rewrite it. The Honorable Government House Leader,

940
01:03:41.000 --> 01:03:48.000
<v Speaker 3>mister Speaker, English Canadians and French Canadians built a very

941
01:03:48.119 --> 01:03:51.280
<v Speaker 3>great country, one that is the best in the world.

942
01:03:51.800 --> 01:03:57.920
<v Speaker 3>We created great prosperity in mutual respect for our official

943
01:03:58.000 --> 01:04:02.360
<v Speaker 3>languages and human rights. Seaker. No one, not the block

944
01:04:02.960 --> 01:04:08.039
<v Speaker 3>will even will minimize this accomplishment. Nevertheless, mister speaker, we're

945
01:04:08.079 --> 01:04:13.719
<v Speaker 3>going to continue to work with what concerns Quebecer's i e. Affordability,

946
01:04:14.039 --> 01:04:19.840
<v Speaker 3>job creation, prosperity, creation together, mister Speaker, the Honorable Member

947
01:04:19.920 --> 01:04:23.000
<v Speaker 3>for Saint Jean, mister speaker, if you listen to the

948
01:04:23.079 --> 01:04:26.360
<v Speaker 3>Prime Minister, when French was banned from being taught in

949
01:04:26.440 --> 01:04:31.480
<v Speaker 3>the Maritimes, in Manitoba, in Saskatchewan, in Alberta and in Ontario,

950
01:04:31.920 --> 01:04:34.320
<v Speaker 3>it wasn't to erase us. No, it was to bring

951
01:04:34.440 --> 01:04:38.199
<v Speaker 3>us together. When Quebecers were excluded from power and business,

952
01:04:38.519 --> 01:04:41.199
<v Speaker 3>it was for their own good. When the founder of

953
01:04:41.320 --> 01:04:44.400
<v Speaker 3>Canada said that Louis Reelle would be hanged even if

954
01:04:44.480 --> 01:04:47.000
<v Speaker 3>all the dogs in Quebec bart in his favor, we

955
01:04:47.280 --> 01:04:51.599
<v Speaker 3>just misrepresented his love of Poocha's mister speaker, when is

956
01:04:51.639 --> 01:04:54.920
<v Speaker 3>this Prime minister going to learn our history for real?

957
01:04:55.679 --> 01:05:04.280
<v Speaker 3>The Honorable Government House Leader, Mister speaker, she's talking to

958
01:05:04.639 --> 01:05:07.119
<v Speaker 3>a Government House leader of that is the proud ancestor

959
01:05:07.559 --> 01:05:12.559
<v Speaker 3>of Scottish immigrants who studied in French in Prince Edward Island,

960
01:05:12.800 --> 01:05:16.840
<v Speaker 3>who did his undergrad at the Acadian University in Moncton,

961
01:05:17.320 --> 01:05:19.880
<v Speaker 3>and who lives his life in French, and who was

962
01:05:19.920 --> 01:05:26.199
<v Speaker 3>elected four times in a writing that is ninety percent Francophone.

963
01:05:26.239 --> 01:05:29.519
<v Speaker 3>That is possible in Canada when we have mutual respect

964
01:05:29.559 --> 01:05:33.800
<v Speaker 3>between Anglophones and Anglophones, and we've created the best country

965
01:05:33.840 --> 01:05:40.239
<v Speaker 3>in the world. Vive la Canada, the Honorable Member for

966
01:05:40.360 --> 01:05:45.800
<v Speaker 3>Saint Jean, mister speaker. A little reminder, historically, there's a

967
01:05:45.880 --> 01:05:49.000
<v Speaker 3>reason why these questions are being asked in a parliament

968
01:05:49.039 --> 01:05:52.960
<v Speaker 3>here in Ottawa. It's because English speakers preferred to burn

969
01:05:53.039 --> 01:05:56.239
<v Speaker 3>down the Parliament in Montreal rather than compensate French Canadians

970
01:05:56.239 --> 01:06:00.519
<v Speaker 3>who had their farms burned during the eighteen thirty seven

971
01:06:00.559 --> 01:06:04.400
<v Speaker 3>rebellion with a terrible partnership. The Liberal Lieutenant from Quebec

972
01:06:04.440 --> 01:06:06.079
<v Speaker 3>defended the Prime Minister by saying that it was just

973
01:06:06.159 --> 01:06:10.800
<v Speaker 3>a different perspective on history. Well, history is facts, not opinions.

974
01:06:11.159 --> 01:06:14.440
<v Speaker 3>So instead of defending these alternative facts from the Prime Minister,

975
01:06:15.119 --> 01:06:19.440
<v Speaker 3>will we teach him our history lovely, the Honorable Minister

976
01:06:19.519 --> 01:06:24.159
<v Speaker 3>of Finance, mister Speaker, I've noticed that my block colleagues

977
01:06:24.239 --> 01:06:26.599
<v Speaker 3>were talking about history. But I can tell you one

978
01:06:26.679 --> 01:06:29.400
<v Speaker 3>thing that Canadians want to talk about in Quebecer's want

979
01:06:29.440 --> 01:06:33.639
<v Speaker 3>to talk about. That's talking about their city right now.

980
01:06:33.840 --> 01:06:38.360
<v Speaker 3>Those people on my writing in Quebec, they want a

981
01:06:38.440 --> 01:06:42.519
<v Speaker 3>government that is building the future. They want investment and

982
01:06:42.840 --> 01:06:47.440
<v Speaker 3>support for families because Quebecer's first priority is affordability. And

983
01:06:47.639 --> 01:06:54.440
<v Speaker 3>today we're showing up with the Canadian a grocery benefit

984
01:06:54.679 --> 01:06:56.320
<v Speaker 3>to put food on the table. Will always be here

985
01:06:56.360 --> 01:06:58.719
<v Speaker 3>to defend Quebec and Quebecers join a koppel.

986
01:06:59.079 --> 01:07:02.320
<v Speaker 16>The aske be judged on inflation, on grocery prices well.

987
01:07:02.400 --> 01:07:05.079
<v Speaker 21>Food inflation has doubled, the highest in the G seven

988
01:07:05.280 --> 01:07:07.920
<v Speaker 21>and has doubled the US rate. This is a homegrown

989
01:07:08.000 --> 01:07:11.320
<v Speaker 21>problem of high liberal taxes on farmers, fertilizer and food

990
01:07:11.360 --> 01:07:16.119
<v Speaker 21>processors and rampant inflationary deficits. Today's recycled Trudeau Ara rebate

991
01:07:16.199 --> 01:07:18.320
<v Speaker 21>will barely cover one trip to the store for the

992
01:07:18.360 --> 01:07:21.119
<v Speaker 21>average family. They now need to spend over seventeen thousand

993
01:07:21.119 --> 01:07:24.039
<v Speaker 21>dollars a year on groceries. It didn't work when Trudeau

994
01:07:24.079 --> 01:07:24.400
<v Speaker 21>tried it.

995
01:07:24.639 --> 01:07:25.599
<v Speaker 16>Prices kept rising.

996
01:07:25.800 --> 01:07:28.239
<v Speaker 21>There's nothing in today's announcement that will make anything cost less.

997
01:07:28.599 --> 01:07:32.159
<v Speaker 21>So instead of temporary measures, why not permanently scrap liberal

998
01:07:32.239 --> 01:07:34.440
<v Speaker 21>hidden taxes that drive up food costs.

999
01:07:36.199 --> 01:07:40.480
<v Speaker 19>Lulnerable circuit doing of state and the financial institutions A speaker.

1000
01:07:40.559 --> 01:07:43.800
<v Speaker 22>While that leader focuses on hanging on to his leadership,

1001
01:07:44.280 --> 01:07:48.239
<v Speaker 22>we're focused on affordability for Canadians. Our new Groceries and

1002
01:07:48.400 --> 01:07:51.559
<v Speaker 22>essentials benefit will help more than twelve million Canadians with

1003
01:07:51.679 --> 01:07:55.679
<v Speaker 22>food inflation. That's ninety hundred dollars for a family of four.

1004
01:07:55.800 --> 01:08:00.000
<v Speaker 22>Mister speaker, it's time for the Conservatives. It's time for Canadians.

1005
01:08:00.000 --> 01:08:03.760
<v Speaker 22>Thanks to Tell Conservatives to stop the obstruction. Let's build

1006
01:08:03.840 --> 01:08:04.559
<v Speaker 22>Canada together.

1007
01:08:04.679 --> 01:08:08.800
<v Speaker 17>Thank you, nonable member for Regina Kappel. Plan didn't work

1008
01:08:08.840 --> 01:08:09.599
<v Speaker 17>for Justin Trudeau.

1009
01:08:09.599 --> 01:08:11.360
<v Speaker 21>I don't know why they think it will work today

1010
01:08:11.760 --> 01:08:14.519
<v Speaker 21>and earlier today, the Prime Minister tried to blame inflation

1011
01:08:14.679 --> 01:08:17.279
<v Speaker 21>on global factors, but all the other countries in the

1012
01:08:17.359 --> 01:08:20.760
<v Speaker 21>G seven have lower food inflation than Canada. The liberal

1013
01:08:20.800 --> 01:08:24.159
<v Speaker 21>fuel standards tax didn't invade us from another country that

1014
01:08:24.279 --> 01:08:26.079
<v Speaker 21>already at seven cents a leader and is set to

1015
01:08:26.159 --> 01:08:29.560
<v Speaker 21>rise to seventeen. The industrial liberal carbon tax didn't come

1016
01:08:29.600 --> 01:08:33.039
<v Speaker 21>from away either. Working families who can't afford beef know

1017
01:08:33.119 --> 01:08:35.239
<v Speaker 21>that today's announcement won't even cover.

1018
01:08:35.399 --> 01:08:36.720
<v Speaker 16>One trip to the grocery store.

1019
01:08:36.920 --> 01:08:40.439
<v Speaker 21>So why not stop trying recycling failed Trudel policies and

1020
01:08:40.520 --> 01:08:44.159
<v Speaker 21>adopt common sense conservative measures to scrap liberal taxes on food?

1021
01:08:46.159 --> 01:08:49.319
<v Speaker 17>Yeah, the Honorable Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister.

1022
01:08:49.119 --> 01:08:51.680
<v Speaker 23>Of Maffies too speaker, speaking of recycling, We've got the

1023
01:08:51.720 --> 01:08:54.359
<v Speaker 23>twenty fifteen playbook here in twenty twenty six, and it's

1024
01:08:54.479 --> 01:08:57.880
<v Speaker 23>just not going to work. Canadians know that the environment, economy,

1025
01:08:58.000 --> 01:09:02.560
<v Speaker 23>trade reconciliation, these are all related and Canadians and conservative writings.

1026
01:09:02.600 --> 01:09:06.119
<v Speaker 23>Expect better than obstruction and speak and spell politics where

1027
01:09:06.159 --> 01:09:08.560
<v Speaker 23>we get one of five answers to every problem.

1028
01:09:09.279 --> 01:09:10.600
<v Speaker 16>Listen on this site.

1029
01:09:10.680 --> 01:09:14.600
<v Speaker 23>There's new programs for affordability, economic growth, building big things,

1030
01:09:14.920 --> 01:09:16.800
<v Speaker 23>and this is a big moment for this country. I

1031
01:09:16.960 --> 01:09:19.920
<v Speaker 23>invite the members opposite to join us, to see the

1032
01:09:19.960 --> 01:09:20.479
<v Speaker 23>world as it.

1033
01:09:20.600 --> 01:09:22.640
<v Speaker 16>Is and to build Canada strong.

1034
01:09:24.800 --> 01:09:27.680
<v Speaker 17>The Honorable Members with caliguny E s and.

1035
01:09:27.720 --> 01:09:30.279
<v Speaker 24>Kalduis So in Canada first in the G seven for

1036
01:09:30.439 --> 01:09:33.479
<v Speaker 24>food inflation. Canada's food inflation is double the US at

1037
01:09:33.479 --> 01:09:36.960
<v Speaker 24>six point two percent. Essentials like lettuce, beef, baby formula

1038
01:09:36.960 --> 01:09:40.039
<v Speaker 24>and apples are all hit with liberal inflation. Conservatives will

1039
01:09:40.079 --> 01:09:43.159
<v Speaker 24>fast track any proposal double reverse. Having the highest food

1040
01:09:43.159 --> 01:09:46.640
<v Speaker 24>inflation in the G seven that includes eliminating the industrial

1041
01:09:46.840 --> 01:09:51.119
<v Speaker 24>carbon tex, liberal fuel standards, cutting red tape, and boosting competition.

1042
01:09:51.520 --> 01:09:53.960
<v Speaker 24>Will the Liberals introduce this immediately?

1043
01:09:56.319 --> 01:09:59.640
<v Speaker 17>The Honorable Minister of Agri Agamster.

1044
01:09:59.199 --> 01:10:02.359
<v Speaker 25>Speaker, and government is focused on delivering support where it's needed.

1045
01:10:02.800 --> 01:10:05.279
<v Speaker 25>I can't understand why the opposition is so against that,

1046
01:10:05.439 --> 01:10:06.119
<v Speaker 25>Mister Speaker.

1047
01:10:06.439 --> 01:10:08.319
<v Speaker 16>By taking action now, we're helping.

1048
01:10:08.159 --> 01:10:12.960
<v Speaker 25>Farmers manage essential costs, improving portability, strengthening a more resilient

1049
01:10:13.039 --> 01:10:13.600
<v Speaker 25>food system.

1050
01:10:13.640 --> 01:10:15.239
<v Speaker 14>Mister speaker, twelve.

1051
01:10:15.039 --> 01:10:18.159
<v Speaker 25>Million Canadians are going to be affected by this, mister speaker.

1052
01:10:18.439 --> 01:10:20.880
<v Speaker 25>It's going to help our domestic production, it's going to

1053
01:10:20.960 --> 01:10:23.119
<v Speaker 25>help our farmers and ranchers, and it's going to help

1054
01:10:23.159 --> 01:10:23.760
<v Speaker 25>our economy.

1055
01:10:23.880 --> 01:10:26.520
<v Speaker 17>Thank you, Member for Calgary East.

1056
01:10:26.840 --> 01:10:29.039
<v Speaker 24>Giving the Canadians the money back the Liberals took from

1057
01:10:29.079 --> 01:10:31.760
<v Speaker 24>them in the first place doesn't lower grocery costs. The

1058
01:10:31.880 --> 01:10:35.159
<v Speaker 24>Prime Minister can't blame global factors either. When all other

1059
01:10:35.279 --> 01:10:38.680
<v Speaker 24>G seven nations have lower food inflation than Canada does,

1060
01:10:38.960 --> 01:10:43.279
<v Speaker 24>Liberals raise taxes on farmers, fertilizer, food processors, all while

1061
01:10:43.319 --> 01:10:46.600
<v Speaker 24>doubling the deficit. Well, the Liberals reverse these failed policies,

1062
01:10:46.920 --> 01:10:48.800
<v Speaker 24>or is having the highest food inflation in the G

1063
01:10:48.960 --> 01:10:51.960
<v Speaker 24>seven the only Liberal promise they're willing to keep.

1064
01:10:54.800 --> 01:10:59.960
<v Speaker 17>The Honorable Minister for Digital, Artificial Intelligence and Digital inn.

1065
01:11:00.840 --> 01:11:04.319
<v Speaker 26>Well, the Party of No, mister speaker, keeps standing in

1066
01:11:04.439 --> 01:11:07.520
<v Speaker 26>the way of bringing down the cost of living for Canadians.

1067
01:11:07.920 --> 01:11:11.880
<v Speaker 26>We're saying yes today the Groceries and Essential Benefit will

1068
01:11:11.960 --> 01:11:16.560
<v Speaker 26>give twelve million Canadians support to put food on the table,

1069
01:11:16.800 --> 01:11:20.319
<v Speaker 26>saving the average family a four almost nineteen hundred dollars

1070
01:11:20.359 --> 01:11:22.880
<v Speaker 26>in the average individual almost nine hundred dollars.

1071
01:11:23.119 --> 01:11:25.279
<v Speaker 16>We're saying yes to supporting families.

1072
01:11:25.479 --> 01:11:27.680
<v Speaker 26>We're saying yes to making life more affordable.

1073
01:11:27.840 --> 01:11:29.560
<v Speaker 16>We're saying yes to real solutions.

1074
01:11:29.800 --> 01:11:33.359
<v Speaker 26>Why doesn't the Party of No support Canadians and start

1075
01:11:33.520 --> 01:11:34.680
<v Speaker 26>saying yes as well?

1076
01:11:36.319 --> 01:11:39.720
<v Speaker 17>The Honorable Member for Leeds Grenville thousand Islanders, the.

1077
01:11:39.760 --> 01:11:42.359
<v Speaker 27>Prime Minister said, a country that can't feed itself, fuel

1078
01:11:42.399 --> 01:11:45.399
<v Speaker 27>itself or defend itself has few options. And he's right,

1079
01:11:45.840 --> 01:11:49.560
<v Speaker 27>and Canadians are looking for the Prime Minister's words to

1080
01:11:49.680 --> 01:11:53.439
<v Speaker 27>match his actions. Now tomorrow, Conservatives are going to introduce

1081
01:11:53.479 --> 01:11:56.760
<v Speaker 27>a motion to pass the Canadian Sovereignty Act. It's going

1082
01:11:56.840 --> 01:11:59.800
<v Speaker 27>to cut taxes and it's going to let investors invest

1083
01:11:59.880 --> 01:12:03.600
<v Speaker 27>in builders build. The question is very simple, at this

1084
01:12:04.000 --> 01:12:07.640
<v Speaker 27>critical time for our country, will the government say yes

1085
01:12:07.800 --> 01:12:10.520
<v Speaker 27>and will they support the Canadian Sovereignty Act?

1086
01:12:11.840 --> 01:12:13.439
<v Speaker 17>Bilim the old government health leaders.

1087
01:12:14.239 --> 01:12:17.079
<v Speaker 11>So, mister Speaker, there is a bill before this Parliament

1088
01:12:17.199 --> 01:12:21.640
<v Speaker 11>that lets investors invest, that lets builders build, and in

1089
01:12:21.760 --> 01:12:26.319
<v Speaker 11>fact attracts one trillion with a t trillion dollars of

1090
01:12:26.479 --> 01:12:30.000
<v Speaker 11>investment in our country that will protect our workers and

1091
01:12:30.159 --> 01:12:34.359
<v Speaker 11>build our industries it is the Budget Implementation Act. Now

1092
01:12:34.520 --> 01:12:38.119
<v Speaker 11>Canadians and Conservative writings are telling us they want this

1093
01:12:38.279 --> 01:12:41.079
<v Speaker 11>Parliament to work, that they want to endorse the Prime

1094
01:12:41.119 --> 01:12:44.239
<v Speaker 11>Minister's plan to create growth in this country. Can that

1095
01:12:44.479 --> 01:12:47.319
<v Speaker 11>member give us a date, just a date where we

1096
01:12:47.439 --> 01:12:50.640
<v Speaker 11>will have third reading and pass the Prime Minister's plan

1097
01:12:50.880 --> 01:12:53.319
<v Speaker 11>for prosperity and capa no.

1098
01:12:53.439 --> 01:12:58.039
<v Speaker 3>No Janill remember for Charlburg or Saint Shall. Mister Speaker.

1099
01:12:58.119 --> 01:13:01.760
<v Speaker 3>The Prime Minister seems open to our proposal to move

1100
01:13:01.880 --> 01:13:05.640
<v Speaker 3>faster to help Canadians. That's fantastic, but has also promised

1101
01:13:05.720 --> 01:13:08.479
<v Speaker 3>affordable groceries for Canadians. On the side of the House,

1102
01:13:08.520 --> 01:13:12.479
<v Speaker 3>we're eager to quickly pass proposals and aimed at reversing

1103
01:13:12.560 --> 01:13:16.000
<v Speaker 3>food inflation, such as measures that stimulate competition in the

1104
01:13:16.039 --> 01:13:19.600
<v Speaker 3>food chain. Tomorrow, will table emotion to pass the Canadian

1105
01:13:19.720 --> 01:13:25.800
<v Speaker 3>Sovereignty Act. Will your government table legislation to reduce the

1106
01:13:25.880 --> 01:13:31.479
<v Speaker 3>cost of groceries? The Honorable Parmitary Secretary, Mister Speaker, I'm

1107
01:13:31.600 --> 01:13:33.920
<v Speaker 3>very happy to rise and wish everyone a happy new year.

1108
01:13:34.439 --> 01:13:37.680
<v Speaker 3>And it's already a good year for Canadians. Today, more

1109
01:13:37.760 --> 01:13:42.880
<v Speaker 3>than twelve million Canadians will see their purchasing power increase.

1110
01:13:43.199 --> 01:13:47.640
<v Speaker 3>That's what they need to face rising prices in grocery stores,

1111
01:13:47.680 --> 01:13:50.439
<v Speaker 3>greater purchasing power, and that's our objective. I hope my

1112
01:13:50.520 --> 01:13:53.359
<v Speaker 3>colleagues will support us in this action. I'd like to

1113
01:13:53.399 --> 01:13:57.359
<v Speaker 3>thank you, mister Speaker, the Honorable Member for Charburg Shall.

1114
01:13:57.800 --> 01:14:02.039
<v Speaker 3>Mister Speaker, we already said we'd pass this, but we

1115
01:14:02.119 --> 01:14:05.640
<v Speaker 3>need to go further and it's time to reward businesses

1116
01:14:05.720 --> 01:14:08.159
<v Speaker 3>and workers who build an invest in Canada, and we

1117
01:14:08.239 --> 01:14:13.239
<v Speaker 3>must protect Canadian innovation. We are proposing creating a tax

1118
01:14:13.319 --> 01:14:16.960
<v Speaker 3>credit for reinvestment in Canada to stimulate domestic industrial activity

1119
01:14:17.319 --> 01:14:20.840
<v Speaker 3>and protecting Canadian innovation by requiring the Minister of Industry

1120
01:14:20.920 --> 01:14:24.560
<v Speaker 3>to present a plan to prevent the sale of Canadian innovations,

1121
01:14:24.600 --> 01:14:27.760
<v Speaker 3>discoveries and innovations to other countries. Will you support our

1122
01:14:27.800 --> 01:14:33.359
<v Speaker 3>motion and introduce a bill to this effects of Vision

1123
01:14:33.399 --> 01:14:39.680
<v Speaker 3>News Services. Hello everyone, Happy new year, mister Speaker. We're

1124
01:14:39.720 --> 01:14:43.800
<v Speaker 3>working together on new measures to help families and to

1125
01:14:43.880 --> 01:14:50.239
<v Speaker 3>put food on the table. In my writing, a single

1126
01:14:50.960 --> 01:14:54.880
<v Speaker 3>mother of a family will see her purchasing power increase

1127
01:14:55.039 --> 01:14:59.800
<v Speaker 3>and also will be new members measures rather TELP provide

1128
01:15:00.079 --> 01:15:05.000
<v Speaker 3>use and pay for daycare after school, won't just be

1129
01:15:05.079 --> 01:15:08.479
<v Speaker 3>helping people on my writing, but also it'll be the

1130
01:15:08.520 --> 01:15:10.279
<v Speaker 3>same thing on the other side of the house in

1131
01:15:10.359 --> 01:15:13.760
<v Speaker 3>their writings. So it asked them to work with us

1132
01:15:15.279 --> 01:15:23.119
<v Speaker 3>and inaudible, the Honorable Member for Drummond, mister speaker. It

1133
01:15:23.239 --> 01:15:26.439
<v Speaker 3>was on a sunny day in September seventeen fifty nine

1134
01:15:26.840 --> 01:15:29.720
<v Speaker 3>that the beautiful partnership between the French and the English began.

1135
01:15:29.960 --> 01:15:33.680
<v Speaker 3>This beautiful friendship, born on the plains of Abraham, would

1136
01:15:33.720 --> 01:15:36.760
<v Speaker 3>give rise to moments filled with affection. The ban on

1137
01:15:36.880 --> 01:15:40.279
<v Speaker 3>French and schools, the hanging of the Patriots, the Durham Report,

1138
01:15:40.760 --> 01:15:44.720
<v Speaker 3>the execution of lu Reelle, the Quebec City riot during conscription,

1139
01:15:45.079 --> 01:15:47.119
<v Speaker 3>the War Measures Acts, the Night of the Long Knives,

1140
01:15:47.560 --> 01:15:49.720
<v Speaker 3>and the failure of the meach Like Accord and so on.

1141
01:15:50.119 --> 01:15:52.520
<v Speaker 3>Could it be that this Prime Minister is unfamiliar with

1142
01:15:52.520 --> 01:15:57.359
<v Speaker 3>the history of Quebecers and Francophones. He has no knowledge

1143
01:15:57.920 --> 01:16:03.079
<v Speaker 3>of it in Canada, Love the Honorable Minister of Canadian

1144
01:16:03.119 --> 01:16:08.760
<v Speaker 3>Identity and Culture. Thank you, mister speaker. First, I'd like

1145
01:16:08.840 --> 01:16:13.399
<v Speaker 3>to wish a happy New Year to the Block or

1146
01:16:13.560 --> 01:16:18.319
<v Speaker 3>their militant arm of the party Quepequa. Well, I think

1147
01:16:18.359 --> 01:16:22.079
<v Speaker 3>what bothers them. The most is the Prime Minister's message

1148
01:16:23.920 --> 01:16:25.680
<v Speaker 3>was a national one. But I'd like to ask them

1149
01:16:25.680 --> 01:16:30.119
<v Speaker 3>a question. Did they ask permission from mister Plumondaut to

1150
01:16:30.239 --> 01:16:33.439
<v Speaker 3>ask their question? Because he's going to move on to

1151
01:16:33.560 --> 01:16:36.720
<v Speaker 3>something else. He is having an argument with the Bunama

1152
01:16:36.960 --> 01:16:40.239
<v Speaker 3>of the Quebec Carnival. You can't invent that, the Honorable

1153
01:16:40.279 --> 01:16:47.039
<v Speaker 3>Member for Drummond, mister speaker. They're rewriting the facts. It's concagious,

1154
01:16:47.079 --> 01:16:49.640
<v Speaker 3>and it's contiguous and is spreading through the entire Liberal caucus.

1155
01:16:50.159 --> 01:16:53.880
<v Speaker 3>And according to the Prime Minister, Montcombe declared on his deathbed,

1156
01:16:54.239 --> 01:16:56.439
<v Speaker 3>I die disappointed because I will not live to see

1157
01:16:56.479 --> 01:16:59.159
<v Speaker 3>the surrender of English in Quebec. The truth is that

1158
01:16:59.239 --> 01:17:01.600
<v Speaker 3>we were contract conquered and since then the Federal government

1159
01:17:01.680 --> 01:17:03.159
<v Speaker 3>is just trying to keep us in line. But the

1160
01:17:03.199 --> 01:17:05.720
<v Speaker 3>Prime Minister has chosen to rewrite history and serving that

1161
01:17:05.800 --> 01:17:09.840
<v Speaker 3>Quebecers do not know it. And instead of spouting nonsense

1162
01:17:09.880 --> 01:17:12.840
<v Speaker 3>about the Plains of Abraham and insulting our intelligence, what

1163
01:17:13.000 --> 01:17:15.119
<v Speaker 3>is the Prime Minister waiting for to pick up a

1164
01:17:15.199 --> 01:17:18.119
<v Speaker 3>book and learn a bit more about Quebec. It's about

1165
01:17:18.199 --> 01:17:25.920
<v Speaker 3>time the Honorable Government House Leader mister speaker, Quebecers have

1166
01:17:26.079 --> 01:17:30.920
<v Speaker 3>been telling us out loud to work on affordability and

1167
01:17:32.079 --> 01:17:33.680
<v Speaker 3>help them make ends meet at the end of the month.

1168
01:17:34.279 --> 01:17:38.760
<v Speaker 3>To take efforts on rent on lodging, and to protect

1169
01:17:38.880 --> 01:17:43.960
<v Speaker 3>our industry such as softwood, lumber, aluminium and in general,

1170
01:17:44.399 --> 01:17:49.159
<v Speaker 3>to prevent them from tariff threats in a very complex world,

1171
01:17:49.520 --> 01:17:52.920
<v Speaker 3>while still protecting their culture and language, mister speaker, and

1172
01:17:53.039 --> 01:17:56.800
<v Speaker 3>that is what the federal government and the Liberal Party

1173
01:17:57.159 --> 01:17:59.359
<v Speaker 3>are doing this year.

1174
01:18:00.199 --> 01:18:03.319
<v Speaker 17>The Honorable Member for Long Range Mountains, mister speakers.

1175
01:18:03.359 --> 01:18:06.800
<v Speaker 28>Stats Canada confirms what Canadian families already know.

1176
01:18:06.880 --> 01:18:07.560
<v Speaker 3>With the checkout.

1177
01:18:07.920 --> 01:18:10.720
<v Speaker 28>Food inflation has jumped by six point two percent in

1178
01:18:10.800 --> 01:18:13.720
<v Speaker 28>the last year. Grocery prices are up five percent, and

1179
01:18:13.880 --> 01:18:15.640
<v Speaker 28>Canada now has the highest.

1180
01:18:15.319 --> 01:18:16.920
<v Speaker 29>Food inflation in the G seven.

1181
01:18:17.359 --> 01:18:21.039
<v Speaker 28>Newfoudlanda Labrador has the second highest food inflation rate in

1182
01:18:21.159 --> 01:18:25.560
<v Speaker 28>the entire country, and higher transportation costs mean local families

1183
01:18:25.600 --> 01:18:29.119
<v Speaker 28>are hit even harder. Conservatives are ready to fast track

1184
01:18:29.199 --> 01:18:32.399
<v Speaker 28>measures to bring food prices down. So will the government

1185
01:18:32.560 --> 01:18:35.840
<v Speaker 28>eliminate the industrial carbon tax and the seventeen cents of

1186
01:18:35.920 --> 01:18:39.239
<v Speaker 28>lead fuel standards tax so Canadians can afford the basics.

1187
01:18:40.920 --> 01:18:43.439
<v Speaker 17>The honorable industry fictions.

1188
01:18:43.000 --> 01:18:44.720
<v Speaker 3>And thank you, mister Speaker.

1189
01:18:44.760 --> 01:18:47.079
<v Speaker 30>And I wish the Member of officeite the opposition member

1190
01:18:47.079 --> 01:18:48.079
<v Speaker 30>from New Calinda.

1191
01:18:47.800 --> 01:18:49.840
<v Speaker 3>Labrador, happy New Year.

1192
01:18:49.920 --> 01:18:51.399
<v Speaker 30>And I want you to just give a couple of

1193
01:18:51.439 --> 01:18:55.880
<v Speaker 30>stats the Canada groceries and essential benefit specific for our province.

1194
01:18:56.239 --> 01:18:58.720
<v Speaker 3>A family of four this year will get over.

1195
01:18:58.680 --> 01:19:03.239
<v Speaker 31>Eighteen hundred dollars, and then the next four years fourteen

1196
01:19:03.399 --> 01:19:07.039
<v Speaker 31>hundred dollars a year, a single person nine hundred and

1197
01:19:07.279 --> 01:19:10.880
<v Speaker 31>fifty dollars with the top up, and then seven hundred.

1198
01:19:10.600 --> 01:19:11.760
<v Speaker 3>Dollars going forward.

1199
01:19:12.199 --> 01:19:16.720
<v Speaker 30>Circunstantoints are telling me they want action, stop the obstruction

1200
01:19:16.920 --> 01:19:17.359
<v Speaker 30>and work for.

1201
01:19:17.359 --> 01:19:22.119
<v Speaker 17>The noble member for long range multima.

1202
01:19:22.239 --> 01:19:25.119
<v Speaker 28>They are ready to work with the government on real

1203
01:19:25.399 --> 01:19:31.279
<v Speaker 28>long term solutions instead of recycled temporary Trudah arrow rebates.

1204
01:19:31.800 --> 01:19:34.399
<v Speaker 28>Canada has been called the food inflation capital of the

1205
01:19:34.520 --> 01:19:38.199
<v Speaker 28>G seven. Mister Speaker. That's real hardship. People back home

1206
01:19:38.319 --> 01:19:40.920
<v Speaker 28>ask me how far does this have to go before

1207
01:19:40.960 --> 01:19:44.920
<v Speaker 28>it stops? The Prime Minister can't blame global factors when

1208
01:19:45.000 --> 01:19:48.479
<v Speaker 28>all other countries have lower food price inflation than Canada.

1209
01:19:48.800 --> 01:19:52.439
<v Speaker 28>It's a homegrown problem of high liberal taxes. So will

1210
01:19:52.520 --> 01:19:56.640
<v Speaker 28>this government focus on actually bringing down food prices or

1211
01:19:56.680 --> 01:19:59.920
<v Speaker 28>will it defend policies that make food more expensive?

1212
01:20:01.000 --> 01:20:06.880
<v Speaker 30>The Ministry, how your wants recycled and it's hired, notes

1213
01:20:06.960 --> 01:20:10.359
<v Speaker 30>that the Conservative numbers as fund of Plana Labrador as

1214
01:20:10.399 --> 01:20:13.600
<v Speaker 30>well just contain here to repeat the point is they

1215
01:20:13.800 --> 01:20:19.319
<v Speaker 30>consistently both against support families, help the people that they

1216
01:20:19.520 --> 01:20:20.720
<v Speaker 30>talk about in their.

1217
01:20:20.720 --> 01:20:24.079
<v Speaker 12>Riding that I hear from the one them to support.

1218
01:20:24.520 --> 01:20:28.239
<v Speaker 30>Stop the nonsense, work together and let's growth Canada.

1219
01:20:29.600 --> 01:20:31.439
<v Speaker 17>Remember for Cambridge.

1220
01:20:32.439 --> 01:20:35.239
<v Speaker 8>Mister speaker, Canada is now the inflation capital of the

1221
01:20:35.319 --> 01:20:38.479
<v Speaker 8>G seven. Food prices are rising faster than families can

1222
01:20:38.600 --> 01:20:41.520
<v Speaker 8>keep up twice the rate of the US and recycle

1223
01:20:41.600 --> 01:20:44.680
<v Speaker 8>trude tou Era rebates do not fix the problem. Canadians

1224
01:20:44.680 --> 01:20:46.840
<v Speaker 8>can't eat the paper on which this Prime Minister's empty

1225
01:20:46.920 --> 01:20:50.039
<v Speaker 8>promises are written. Restaurants are being squeezed out of business

1226
01:20:50.079 --> 01:20:52.720
<v Speaker 8>with higher food costs, and Canadians are cutting back because

1227
01:20:52.720 --> 01:20:55.079
<v Speaker 8>they can't afford to eat. Conservers are ready to work

1228
01:20:55.119 --> 01:20:57.680
<v Speaker 8>on long term solutions. Canadians can feel at the checkout

1229
01:20:58.079 --> 01:21:00.159
<v Speaker 8>like cutting the industrial carbon attacks and the few those

1230
01:21:00.159 --> 01:21:02.920
<v Speaker 8>stand or tax to bring prices down. Will the Prime

1231
01:21:03.000 --> 01:21:05.560
<v Speaker 8>Minister work with us or does he consider the food

1232
01:21:05.600 --> 01:21:08.239
<v Speaker 8>bank the new order of fine dining for Canadians.

1233
01:21:10.920 --> 01:21:13.439
<v Speaker 17>The Honorable Parliamentary Secretary to the.

1234
01:21:13.439 --> 01:21:18.359
<v Speaker 29>Prime Minister, mister Speaker. Nineteen hundred dollars per family is

1235
01:21:18.760 --> 01:21:23.239
<v Speaker 29>real money that will help Canadians pay for groceries, pay

1236
01:21:23.560 --> 01:21:27.720
<v Speaker 29>for schools, pay for their activities for their children. Mister Speaker.

1237
01:21:28.199 --> 01:21:32.760
<v Speaker 29>Canadians and Conservative health writings want to benefit from this

1238
01:21:32.960 --> 01:21:38.680
<v Speaker 29>support from our government. Why are the Conservatives blocking systematically

1239
01:21:39.199 --> 01:21:42.199
<v Speaker 29>every time we want to help Canadians.

1240
01:21:41.720 --> 01:21:49.399
<v Speaker 14>Here, the Honorable Member for le'vy Lubigne, Mister Speaker. It's

1241
01:21:49.479 --> 01:21:52.119
<v Speaker 14>expensive to eat in Canada, and it costs a lot

1242
01:21:52.199 --> 01:21:55.439
<v Speaker 14>more here than elsewhere. There's no other country in the

1243
01:21:55.520 --> 01:21:58.479
<v Speaker 14>G seven where it costs more to eat than in Canada.

1244
01:21:59.119 --> 01:22:01.840
<v Speaker 14>Ground beef, you can't afford it anymore. It's seventy percent

1245
01:22:01.960 --> 01:22:04.479
<v Speaker 14>more expensive. Apples are up by ten percent, let us

1246
01:22:04.520 --> 01:22:09.279
<v Speaker 14>by thirteen percent, oranges up by fifteen percent, ground coffee

1247
01:22:09.560 --> 01:22:10.359
<v Speaker 14>forty two percent.

1248
01:22:10.479 --> 01:22:11.119
<v Speaker 6>Mister Speaker.

1249
01:22:11.760 --> 01:22:14.479
<v Speaker 14>Is the Liberal government in the tomato business because that's

1250
01:22:14.520 --> 01:22:20.840
<v Speaker 14>the only thing that's gone down. The Honorable Minister of Finance,

1251
01:22:23.079 --> 01:22:27.079
<v Speaker 14>Mister Speaker, coming from a star on a fol Man,

1252
01:22:27.239 --> 01:22:29.960
<v Speaker 14>I'm not surprised to hear that question, mister speaker. But

1253
01:22:30.159 --> 01:22:32.239
<v Speaker 14>you know, I have a lot of admiration for that colleague.

1254
01:22:32.359 --> 01:22:35.279
<v Speaker 14>But he's a bit behind. He's a few days behind.

1255
01:22:35.600 --> 01:22:39.880
<v Speaker 14>Because now we have the Canada Groceries and Essentials Benefit.

1256
01:22:40.760 --> 01:22:43.760
<v Speaker 14>Young people are happy about it, mister Speaker, and I

1257
01:22:43.920 --> 01:22:46.479
<v Speaker 14>know that in his heart the member is happy that

1258
01:22:46.560 --> 01:22:47.880
<v Speaker 14>we have it as well. But is he going to

1259
01:22:48.039 --> 01:22:52.760
<v Speaker 14>rise in this House and help the twelve million Canadians

1260
01:22:52.800 --> 01:22:54.680
<v Speaker 14>of vote in favor of that measure and say that

1261
01:22:54.720 --> 01:22:58.800
<v Speaker 14>the Liberal government's doing good things for Canadians, The Honorable

1262
01:22:58.840 --> 01:23:03.880
<v Speaker 14>Member for l'vy lu mignere, Mister Speaker, you don't buy votes,

1263
01:23:03.920 --> 01:23:08.439
<v Speaker 14>you earn them. The most recent data shows that food

1264
01:23:08.479 --> 01:23:12.000
<v Speaker 14>inflation is up by six point two percent, putting Canada

1265
01:23:12.279 --> 01:23:14.800
<v Speaker 14>first place in food inflation in the G seven. The

1266
01:23:14.920 --> 01:23:17.119
<v Speaker 14>Prime Minister can't blame the rest of the planet. This

1267
01:23:17.279 --> 01:23:21.279
<v Speaker 14>is a home grown problem caused by high liberal taxes

1268
01:23:21.439 --> 01:23:25.520
<v Speaker 14>on our farmers, Mister Speaker. The will the government immediately

1269
01:23:25.560 --> 01:23:28.720
<v Speaker 14>commit to tabling a law which will eliminate the hidden taxes.

1270
01:23:28.399 --> 01:23:29.119
<v Speaker 17>On food.

1271
01:23:31.359 --> 01:23:38.600
<v Speaker 14>Love these the Honorable Minister of Indigenous Services, come on, Collegg,

1272
01:23:39.319 --> 01:23:44.479
<v Speaker 14>mister Speaker, I would like to ensure that my colleague

1273
01:23:44.560 --> 01:23:48.560
<v Speaker 14>understands that we're here to help Canadians not just with food,

1274
01:23:48.800 --> 01:23:52.239
<v Speaker 14>but also with the cost of living. For example, daycare costs,

1275
01:23:53.840 --> 01:23:58.159
<v Speaker 14>costs that are hard to plan for. Mister Speaker, we

1276
01:23:58.439 --> 01:24:04.119
<v Speaker 14>ask our colleagues to follow what their leader said in

1277
01:24:04.199 --> 01:24:06.760
<v Speaker 14>his open letter. I asked them to be open to

1278
01:24:06.880 --> 01:24:09.279
<v Speaker 14>working with the government to help twelve million Canadians.

1279
01:24:09.439 --> 01:24:15.640
<v Speaker 5>Please the Honorable Member for Self Shore Saint Margaret's, Mister Speaker.

1280
01:24:15.720 --> 01:24:17.840
<v Speaker 32>When I was back home in my writing, I had

1281
01:24:17.920 --> 01:24:21.800
<v Speaker 32>many conversations with people in my community about how important

1282
01:24:21.840 --> 01:24:24.640
<v Speaker 32>the school food program was to families. In my writing

1283
01:24:24.720 --> 01:24:28.439
<v Speaker 32>of South Shore Saint Margaret's, can the Minister of Environment,

1284
01:24:28.600 --> 01:24:32.399
<v Speaker 32>Climate Change and Nature please update the House on how

1285
01:24:32.439 --> 01:24:37.359
<v Speaker 32>the government will deliver real near term relief for Canadians

1286
01:24:37.439 --> 01:24:39.000
<v Speaker 32>facing higher costs of living.

1287
01:24:39.199 --> 01:24:43.920
<v Speaker 17>Thank you, Minister of Environment, Climate Change and the Nature.

1288
01:24:44.039 --> 01:24:46.119
<v Speaker 33>Thank you Mintion for me and I think it's great

1289
01:24:46.199 --> 01:24:48.920
<v Speaker 33>because the Member from Shore Saint Mark's can to be

1290
01:24:48.960 --> 01:24:51.760
<v Speaker 33>able to go back home this weekend and talk to

1291
01:24:51.880 --> 01:24:56.119
<v Speaker 33>families about the Canada Growthries and Essentials benefit that is

1292
01:24:56.279 --> 01:24:57.479
<v Speaker 33>going to help a.

1293
01:24:57.560 --> 01:25:01.800
<v Speaker 13>Family of four with almost ninety one hundred dollars a year.

1294
01:25:01.880 --> 01:25:04.000
<v Speaker 13>That's going to help over twelve million in pales people

1295
01:25:04.079 --> 01:25:06.800
<v Speaker 13>right across the country. It's her hard work, it's delivery

1296
01:25:06.840 --> 01:25:09.760
<v Speaker 13>needs results. Not only that, we have made the National

1297
01:25:09.840 --> 01:25:15.039
<v Speaker 13>School Food Program permanent, the Dental Benefit Supporting Family, Canada Childcare,

1298
01:25:15.520 --> 01:25:17.840
<v Speaker 13>and the Canada Child Benefit.

1299
01:25:18.039 --> 01:25:20.159
<v Speaker 3>There's such a long list I could go on forever.

1300
01:25:20.319 --> 01:25:22.000
<v Speaker 13>We're going to continue working for Canadians.

1301
01:25:23.640 --> 01:25:27.560
<v Speaker 14>The Honorable Member for Best Chasley's at Jermaine Levi. Eating

1302
01:25:27.720 --> 01:25:31.039
<v Speaker 14>healthily has become a luxury, mister Speaker. The numbers hurt.

1303
01:25:31.600 --> 01:25:33.600
<v Speaker 14>The price of beef is up by sixteen point eight percent.

1304
01:25:33.720 --> 01:25:36.760
<v Speaker 14>Let us twelve point eight percent apples ten percent Under

1305
01:25:36.800 --> 01:25:41.960
<v Speaker 14>this government, Preparing a simple salad has become a major investment,

1306
01:25:42.039 --> 01:25:45.720
<v Speaker 14>mister speaker. Even coffees forty one percent more expensive. When

1307
01:25:45.720 --> 01:25:49.159
<v Speaker 14>will the government stop taxing our farmers and our truckers

1308
01:25:49.640 --> 01:25:52.359
<v Speaker 14>and will it commit today to cutting the industrial carbon

1309
01:25:52.479 --> 01:25:58.520
<v Speaker 14>tax and the tax on fuel standards? The Honorable Minister

1310
01:25:58.600 --> 01:26:03.640
<v Speaker 14>of Health, Well, I would like to thank my colleague

1311
01:26:03.640 --> 01:26:07.960
<v Speaker 14>for her question, and as Minister of Health, I absolutely

1312
01:26:08.000 --> 01:26:10.720
<v Speaker 14>want Canadians to eat well and that is why we've

1313
01:26:10.760 --> 01:26:14.439
<v Speaker 14>put in place this measure today that will give Canadians

1314
01:26:14.560 --> 01:26:17.000
<v Speaker 14>more money in their pockets to help them get through

1315
01:26:17.039 --> 01:26:21.159
<v Speaker 14>these difficult times. So, as I was saying in my writing,

1316
01:26:21.319 --> 01:26:25.560
<v Speaker 14>a family of four needs this help and they'll receive

1317
01:26:25.840 --> 01:26:29.800
<v Speaker 14>almost nineteen hundred dollars this year. So we are taking

1318
01:26:30.199 --> 01:26:34.239
<v Speaker 14>measures to help Canadians transition through this difficult time. The

1319
01:26:35.279 --> 01:26:38.439
<v Speaker 14>Honorable Member for bet Chess The's at Jamain Levi, Mister speaker,

1320
01:26:38.640 --> 01:26:41.039
<v Speaker 14>the Liberal announcement this morning is just a band aid.

1321
01:26:41.119 --> 01:26:43.000
<v Speaker 14>It's not a real solution for the two point two

1322
01:26:43.079 --> 01:26:45.119
<v Speaker 14>million Canadians who are going to continue to go to

1323
01:26:45.159 --> 01:26:49.399
<v Speaker 14>food banks. Canada has the highest food inflation in the

1324
01:26:49.439 --> 01:26:53.439
<v Speaker 14>G seven because of liberal taxes, and it's killing local businesses.

1325
01:26:53.680 --> 01:26:56.720
<v Speaker 14>Seven thousand restaurants closed in twenty twenty five. Four thousand

1326
01:26:56.840 --> 01:26:59.920
<v Speaker 14>more will probably close this year. Will the government eliminate

1327
01:27:00.560 --> 01:27:05.920
<v Speaker 14>the tax that is making transport more expensive and making

1328
01:27:06.000 --> 01:27:11.000
<v Speaker 14>food more expensive? Plesion, the Honorable Secretary of State for Youth,

1329
01:27:11.680 --> 01:27:15.600
<v Speaker 14>Thank you, mister speaker. We are helping Canadians with the

1330
01:27:15.680 --> 01:27:20.680
<v Speaker 14>cost of living by reducing costs with a rebate of

1331
01:27:20.800 --> 01:27:23.880
<v Speaker 14>almost nineteen hundred dollars for a family four. That's on

1332
01:27:24.000 --> 01:27:27.399
<v Speaker 14>top of other investments like the tax cut for twenty

1333
01:27:27.560 --> 01:27:31.159
<v Speaker 14>two million Canadians and a savings of eight hundred dollars

1334
01:27:31.439 --> 01:27:34.319
<v Speaker 14>for children with young kids who benefit from the school

1335
01:27:34.439 --> 01:27:37.920
<v Speaker 14>food program. We're there to help Canadians and families go forward.

1336
01:27:38.560 --> 01:27:43.039
<v Speaker 14>The Conservative Party should stop with these games of obstruction

1337
01:27:43.119 --> 01:27:44.880
<v Speaker 14>in Parliament and support these initiatives.

1338
01:27:44.880 --> 01:27:46.319
<v Speaker 17>None all Member for Oshawa.

1339
01:27:47.359 --> 01:27:50.399
<v Speaker 34>Mister speaker, If we judge the Prime Minister by prices

1340
01:27:50.439 --> 01:27:54.359
<v Speaker 34>at the grocery store, as he said, he's failed, Canada's

1341
01:27:54.359 --> 01:27:57.680
<v Speaker 34>food inflation now sits six point two percent, the highest

1342
01:27:57.720 --> 01:28:01.680
<v Speaker 34>in the G seven. Conservatives are ready to fast track

1343
01:28:01.840 --> 01:28:05.880
<v Speaker 34>real relief by scrapping the industrial carbon tax, eliminating the

1344
01:28:06.039 --> 01:28:10.720
<v Speaker 34>ever increasing fuel standards tax, boosting competition and grocery stores,

1345
01:28:10.800 --> 01:28:11.800
<v Speaker 34>and cutting red.

1346
01:28:11.680 --> 01:28:12.760
<v Speaker 16>Tape for farmers.

1347
01:28:13.359 --> 01:28:17.640
<v Speaker 34>When will the Prime Minister stop offering band aid solutions

1348
01:28:18.000 --> 01:28:21.520
<v Speaker 34>and work with Conservatives to bring food prices down once

1349
01:28:21.560 --> 01:28:22.720
<v Speaker 34>and for all, sure.

1350
01:28:23.399 --> 01:28:26.880
<v Speaker 5>Secretary of Stape to Spot, thank you very much, mister speaker.

1351
01:28:26.960 --> 01:28:29.840
<v Speaker 5>The Canadian Groceries and Essentials Benefit will put food directly

1352
01:28:29.920 --> 01:28:32.199
<v Speaker 5>onto the tables of hard work in Canadian families and

1353
01:28:32.279 --> 01:28:34.399
<v Speaker 5>not just a few, mister speaker. We're talking about twelve

1354
01:28:34.560 --> 01:28:38.439
<v Speaker 5>million Canadians. Mister Speaker, But only Conservatives are willing to

1355
01:28:38.520 --> 01:28:41.239
<v Speaker 5>stand in the way of affordability for families that need

1356
01:28:41.319 --> 01:28:44.079
<v Speaker 5>a little bit of help. Mister speaker, this liberal government

1357
01:28:44.159 --> 01:28:47.239
<v Speaker 5>has the backs of Canadians. Will that Conservative leader turned

1358
01:28:47.279 --> 01:28:50.239
<v Speaker 5>us back on helping Canadians a long long time ago? Now,

1359
01:28:50.319 --> 01:28:52.920
<v Speaker 5>mister speaker, I know that that Conservative leader is obsessed

1360
01:28:52.960 --> 01:28:54.800
<v Speaker 5>with his grip on power right now and probably can't

1361
01:28:54.800 --> 01:28:57.039
<v Speaker 5>focus on much else. But you could focus on what

1362
01:28:57.199 --> 01:28:59.439
<v Speaker 5>Canadians need and helping them out at the grocery store.

1363
01:28:59.600 --> 01:29:02.079
<v Speaker 23>We could use his vote. Thank you very much, mister speaker.

1364
01:29:02.720 --> 01:29:04.359
<v Speaker 17>Nonible members were also.

1365
01:29:05.119 --> 01:29:05.920
<v Speaker 34>Mister speaker.

1366
01:29:06.359 --> 01:29:10.479
<v Speaker 35>Enough with the temporary and recycled Trudeau era rebates, and

1367
01:29:10.760 --> 01:29:14.680
<v Speaker 35>enough with blaming global factors when all the other countries

1368
01:29:14.760 --> 01:29:16.920
<v Speaker 35>have lower food price inflation than Canada.

1369
01:29:17.479 --> 01:29:20.439
<v Speaker 34>This is a home grown problem and we need long

1370
01:29:20.600 --> 01:29:23.960
<v Speaker 34>term solutions. My recent visit to Simple Hall food Bank

1371
01:29:24.039 --> 01:29:27.239
<v Speaker 34>with the Conservative leader was yet another reminder that more

1372
01:29:27.359 --> 01:29:31.520
<v Speaker 34>working families are struggling and visiting food banks. Will the

1373
01:29:31.600 --> 01:29:34.319
<v Speaker 34>Prime Minister stop treating the House of Commons as the

1374
01:29:34.399 --> 01:29:38.279
<v Speaker 34>House of elites and finally work with Conservatives to bring

1375
01:29:38.359 --> 01:29:40.680
<v Speaker 34>food prices down for Canadians.

1376
01:29:41.199 --> 01:29:46.760
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, nonable Secretary of State for Sport, mister speaker. It's

1377
01:29:46.800 --> 01:29:49.520
<v Speaker 5>always pretty fresh to hear the Conservatives talk about elitism

1378
01:29:49.560 --> 01:29:52.920
<v Speaker 5>when they're talking down supports for hard working Canadians, mister speaker.

1379
01:29:53.159 --> 01:29:55.800
<v Speaker 5>Twelve million Canadians are going to benefit from the Canadian

1380
01:29:56.039 --> 01:29:59.520
<v Speaker 5>Groceries and Essentials benefit, mister speaker. And from a personal perspective,

1381
01:30:00.159 --> 01:30:02.960
<v Speaker 5>my hard working single mom got that benefit four times

1382
01:30:03.000 --> 01:30:05.039
<v Speaker 5>a year. That meant running shoes for me and my brother.

1383
01:30:05.439 --> 01:30:07.439
<v Speaker 5>That meant guitar lessons for me and my brother. That

1384
01:30:07.640 --> 01:30:09.760
<v Speaker 5>meant fresher food and maybe a trip to Swish La,

1385
01:30:09.880 --> 01:30:12.840
<v Speaker 5>mister speaker. But those Conservatives have never cared about affordability

1386
01:30:12.920 --> 01:30:15.359
<v Speaker 5>or lower income families, mister speaker. They're only here to help.

1387
01:30:15.399 --> 01:30:18.800
<v Speaker 5>They're rich oil and gas friends. With this nonsense on

1388
01:30:18.920 --> 01:30:21.000
<v Speaker 5>hidden taxes that doesn't exist, mister speaker.

1389
01:30:22.640 --> 01:30:26.600
<v Speaker 17>The Honorable Member for von Wood bringin outa mister speaker.

1390
01:30:26.680 --> 01:30:29.640
<v Speaker 36>Canada now faces the highest food inflation in the G seven.

1391
01:30:29.920 --> 01:30:33.159
<v Speaker 36>The government's response has relied largely on short term relief

1392
01:30:33.199 --> 01:30:36.399
<v Speaker 36>measures that may ease pressure temporarily but do nothing to

1393
01:30:36.479 --> 01:30:40.600
<v Speaker 36>address the underlying drivers of rising food costs. Food affordability

1394
01:30:40.680 --> 01:30:45.640
<v Speaker 36>requires deeper structural action Conservatives that put forward practical solutions,

1395
01:30:45.880 --> 01:30:49.479
<v Speaker 36>including eliminating the industrial carbon tax and fuel standards tax,

1396
01:30:49.720 --> 01:30:52.960
<v Speaker 36>boosting competition in the grocery sector, and cutting red tape

1397
01:30:53.000 --> 01:30:55.960
<v Speaker 36>for farmers. So will the government work with Conservatives to

1398
01:30:56.039 --> 01:30:58.880
<v Speaker 36>deliver lasting relief for Canadian familiest.

1399
01:30:58.600 --> 01:31:02.880
<v Speaker 17>Rob secret theory of stateful later in one.

1400
01:31:03.560 --> 01:31:06.600
<v Speaker 37>Our focus has been on lowering costs for families and

1401
01:31:06.720 --> 01:31:09.960
<v Speaker 37>putting money in their pockets. Today's announcement of the new

1402
01:31:10.039 --> 01:31:13.920
<v Speaker 37>CANDID Groceries and Essentials Benefit will give Canadians the relief

1403
01:31:13.960 --> 01:31:16.319
<v Speaker 37>they need. But more than that, mister Speaker, we have

1404
01:31:16.439 --> 01:31:19.399
<v Speaker 37>delivered a tax cut. We have protected the CANDID Child

1405
01:31:19.520 --> 01:31:22.640
<v Speaker 37>Benefit and grew it. We reduced childcare costs. We have

1406
01:31:23.000 --> 01:31:26.079
<v Speaker 37>cut the carbon tax, mister Speaker. We've delivered dental care,

1407
01:31:26.560 --> 01:31:30.079
<v Speaker 37>building Canada homes. We're building low affordable housing. Mister Speaker,

1408
01:31:30.399 --> 01:31:34.920
<v Speaker 37>made the National Food School Food Program permanent. Mister Speaker,

1409
01:31:34.960 --> 01:31:38.600
<v Speaker 37>My question is voters in Vaughn want this stuff. Why

1410
01:31:38.880 --> 01:31:40.560
<v Speaker 37>is a member obstructing get.

1411
01:31:40.439 --> 01:31:46.159
<v Speaker 19>Out of the way, the Honorable Member for Battle for

1412
01:31:46.600 --> 01:31:47.920
<v Speaker 19>Lloydminster Middle League.

1413
01:31:47.960 --> 01:31:51.000
<v Speaker 35>Well, mister Speaker, if those measures weren't Canadians would actually

1414
01:31:51.000 --> 01:31:52.920
<v Speaker 35>be able to afford their groceries.

1415
01:31:53.039 --> 01:31:54.399
<v Speaker 34>Let us take up twelve percent.

1416
01:31:55.560 --> 01:31:59.159
<v Speaker 12>Well, but I convinced my son that there were colors

1417
01:31:59.239 --> 01:32:00.159
<v Speaker 12>in the world.

1418
01:32:00.119 --> 01:32:04.720
<v Speaker 23>Back when I was young, and though everything wasn't black

1419
01:32:04.840 --> 01:32:06.960
<v Speaker 23>and white, wrong was.

1420
01:32:07.039 --> 01:32:09.199
<v Speaker 12>Wrong and right was right.

1421
01:32:09.720 --> 01:32:12.279
<v Speaker 16>It was about that time I finally.

1422
01:32:12.119 --> 01:32:15.520
<v Speaker 12>Realized maybe my son was right.

1423
01:32:15.600 --> 01:32:16.920
<v Speaker 23>Though old damn time.

1424
01:32:17.239 --> 01:32:20.520
<v Speaker 16>Most of us were on in a clearer time.

1425
01:32:21.119 --> 01:32:22.119
<v Speaker 34>Yeah, things were.

1426
