Prime Minister Mr. Speaker, the Liberals are calling our budget “Masters of our Destiny”, but with Canadians facing mass layoffs and struggling to afford the basics, and the flatlining economy, it sounds more like the Liberals are the masters of our decline. The Liberalpromised to spend less. Apparently he meant Canadians needed to sacrifice more, because while Canadian families are choosing [more]

Mr. Speaker, that Liberal member clearly has not heard the entire speech, because what I said was “mere compliance should not be the measure of success.” It is the outcomes that we need to measure. We can see that in the Australian context where they have a lot of compliance but not a lot of results. That seems to be a theme that the Liberal government likes to follow. It wants to announce and [more]

Mr. Speaker, these are questions that Parliament should be asking and that parents are demanding answers to. Parents expect their children to be protected. They expect technology companies to be held accountable. What Canadians do not want to see is a new online regime that creates more paperwork and more compliance, and where success is measured through mere compliance with those requirements, [more]

C-34 Mr. Speaker, it is an honour to rise today to speak to Bill, the safe social media act, on behalf of the constituents of Richmond Hill South. Children need real protection online and parents need confidence that the services their children use are designed with their safety in mind. Children are being harmed, families are looking for answers and technology companies have too often left [more]

Mr. Speaker, the question the member brings up is about the issue of jurisdiction. That is a question that should be asked as well. Jurisdiction is an issue that perhaps applies to laws that are made even outside of Canada. There may be laws from other countries that these social media platforms have to adhere to about data retention. For example, if there is a Canadian law that says that these [more]

Mr. Speaker, this is one of the alarming features of the government. It tends to trust unelected bureaucrats, and its members tend to defend those decisions. They tend to forget that they are elected by the people. They are elected by Canadians to work for Canadians, to listen to Canadians, to express the concerns of Canadians and, in this case, to listen to parents and protect the interests of [more]

Mr. Speaker, I rise on behalf of the people of Richmond Hill South. It is a real honour to present this petition. Prime Minister The petitioners are concerned that thehas welcomed the European Commission president's proposal for Canada to join the EU as an associate member. The petitioners are concerned that Canadians have endured years of Liberal immigration mismanagement and do not want [more]

There are several parties talking, actually. There are several conversations.

Yes, we just heard “recession”. That's breaking news right there. It's a reasonable request. I don't see why we would oppose this. This amendment is specific, but not so prescriptive that, if we get the minister or the CPP to produce the information and present it in a way that works for them, also producing more information that contributes.... There are lots of side conversations happening [more]

It's about predictability. To many people, the CPP might not be enough. They look at their OAS and, if applicable, GIS. If they get their CPP, that might not be enough to sustain their lifestyle. We know, for example, that for the younger generation now, home ownership is lower than before. A lot of the time people expect that when they retire and their mortgage is paid off.... They still have [more]
