DebateCanadian Armed Forces

Mr. Speaker, just days before Remembrance Day, a 59-year-old member of the Canadian Armed Forces was assaulted while supervising young cadets at a poppy drive in Hamilton. The attack left him with life-altering injuries. I am absolutely disgusted by this violent attack, especially given the significance of the Remembrance Day poppy drive. Every year, Canadians proudly wear their poppy to honour

Mr. Speaker, here are some facts: Homebuilding is down, food bank lineups are up and growth has flatlined. Now the great economist has broken his own fiscal anchors, piling on more national debt.

DebateSteel and Aluminum Industry

Mr. Speaker, the only thing late is the minister filing a lawsuit to protect Hamilton workers. This is the third pay cycle that Hamilton steelworkers are missing.

Prime Minister Mr. Speaker, thebroke his promise of getting a steel deal. The Liberals continue to allow the illegal dumping of foreign steel into the Canadian market. The Liberals refuse to cut the industrial carbon tax so that it is less expensive to work, produce and invest in Canada. The Liberals could take action today by taking Cleveland-Cliffs to court as they said they would. The
