QuestionNatural Resources

energy minister Mr. Speaker, thesaid, “A crisis is a terrible thing to waste”. C-69 It takes 20 years to get a mine built in Canada, while the U.S. approves mines on federal lands in 28 days under emergency crisis rules. Canada sends rare earths to Beijing, which controls 90% of world refining and processing, while Billblocks the Ring of Fire with endless regional assessments. It sounds like a [more]

QuestionNatural Resources

Mr. Speaker, four years after the Liberals' fake critical minerals strategy, not one inch of road exists to the Ring of Fire. There is nothing on the two first nations-led roads to get it done. Liberals let both foes and allies into Canada's backyard while they drag timelines the rest of the world rejects. The Ring of Fire would connect globally strategic minerals to first nations, manufacturers, [more]

QuestionCorrections and Conditional Release Act

C-243 Edmonton Griesbach Mr. Speaker, I am here to support Bill, Brian's bill, for my friend the Conservative MP for. He has been a tireless fighter, especially for how deeply this impacts Alberta families. In 2012, 35-year-old Brian Ilesic and three of his co-workers serviced an ATM machine at my alma mater, the U of A. They never made it home. Brian and two co-workers were killed, and the [more]

DebateReligious Freedom

C-18 C-11 Mr. Speaker, the Liberals love to censor and control Canadians. Their Billblocks Canadians from news on social media. Billcontrols what Canadians see and say online. There is their extra “online harms bill,” yet the laws to combat these exist but are not enforced. Their energy censorship stops Canadian businesses from telling the truth about innovation and the environment. Who can [more]

I appreciate that, Chair, since I still sometimes am unclear about these rules in this august institution, but I think I'm good.

Mar 12, 2026

Thank you, colleagues.

—to help bring the resources to bring stability to Line 5 for exactly the reasons you outlined. Thank you, and I anticipate your support.

Mar 12, 2026

Absolutely. Thank you. I appreciate that.

Mar 12, 2026

Thank you. I appreciate that. It links to the topics we're discussing today. C-5 C-69 I was honoured, National Chief, to meet you at the transport committee in June regarding Bill. Like Bill, Bill C-5 sets up cabinet as the ultimate decision-maker. Of course, first nations view the federal Crown.... As law and judicial precedent uphold, it is distinctly the federal Crown's duty to consult. I [more]

Mar 12, 2026

C-69 In debates on Bill, Conservatives supported the promise of capacity funding for indigenous people to participate in the regulatory process. This is why we also supported loan guarantees and other fiscal measures that you have all called for. Sometimes first nations need to litigate on many of the issues that the national chief has raised through regulatory processes because they're ignored [more]

Mar 12, 2026

Thank you, Chair. National Chief, I am proud to work with and represent five first nations and four Métis settlements in Lakeland, in Treaty No. 6. As you outlined, given the different views, values, aspirations and ambitions among the hundreds of first nations across Canada, can you speak to the rights holders', title holders' and federal Crown's duty to consult in a meaningful, two-way [more]
