Mr. Speaker, I thank the member for the excellent speech he gave and the concerns he displayed. Manufacturing industries are closing. Canadian workers and businesses already know there is no deal on the tariffs coming any time soon. Jobs are moving south. The U.S. is offering incentives for the manufacturing sector while the Liberal government is offering delays, higher taxes, more red tape and [more]

Mr. Speaker, I think the member opposite understands the problem, but he is not providing the solution. Instead of talking about the issue, he was focused on improving his French in his speech. The U.S. continues to impose tariffs on key Canadian sectors: steel, aluminum, lumber and auto parts. If Canada wants a deal with the United States, we need leverage. Our leverage comes from our [more]

Mr. Chair, I want to speak to Mr. Brock's motion because it is relevant to my riding. I know he mentioned that the extortion crisis is on the rise across the country. We all know extortion is up 330% in Canada, and it is a crisis in my hometown of Brampton. It is a crisis because of catch-and-release bail policies and the illegal firearms the Liberals have allowed across the border. We have seen [more]

I would like to move this amendment. I would like to thank my colleague Mr. Lawton for writing this amendment. I would also like to thank Mr. Truong, the London police chief, who supported this idea when he appeared before our committee. CPC-29 seeks to protect victims of intimate partner violence and coercive control. If adopted, this amendment will require victims of intimate partner violence [more]

Thank you, Mr. Chair. I'm very pleased to move amendment CPC-25.1, which seeks to expand the safety valve to include mandatory minimum charges under section 272 of the Criminal Code. Those charges deal with sexual assault with a weapon. The current mandatory minimums in the Criminal Code are five years for a first offence and seven years for reoffenders. When we are talking about protecting [more]

Thank you, Chair. Once again I would like to thank my colleague Mr. Lawton for writing this amendment, and I am very happy to move it. This amendment is similar to CPC-29 in that it promotes the protection of victims. This amendment will require that victims be notified of the offender's eligibility dates and review dates for parole and unescorted temporary absences; dates on which the offender [more]

Thank you again, Chair. C-16 I would like to move amendment CPC-25.3, which is that Bill, in clause 63, be amended by replacing line 9 on page 71 with the following: ment for life or to an offence under section 346. It seeks to expand the safety wall to include mandatory minimum charges under section 346 of the Criminal Code. This section deals with extortion, and it carries a mandatory [more]

Thank you, again, Chair. I'm moving amendment CPC-25.2 with the hope that we can make our laws tough on criminals. This amendment seeks to expand, again, the safety valve to include mandatory minimum charges under section 273 of the Criminal Code. Those charges deal with aggravated sexual assault. My riding of Brampton West is located in Peel region, which has declared intimate partner violence [more]
