C-9 Mr. Speaker, I also bring forward a petition addressing Bill, which will be voted on later today. The petitioning Canadian citizens wish to bring to the attention of the government the fact that the Liberals have proposed removing from the Criminal Code safeguards that protect good-faith expressions of sincerely held religious beliefs, including those based on religious texts like the Bible, [more]

C-218 Mr. Speaker, I rise today to present a petition from dozens of Canadians who are concerned about mental illness and recognize that mental illness is a serious and real illness, but who are calling on the House to support Bill, which would reverse the law extending eligibility for MAID to people with mental illness as their sole underlying medical condition. They believe that mental illness [more]

Winnipeg North Dufferin—Caledon leader of the official opposition Mr. Speaker, I was very pleased to hear my colleague from, early in his speech, confirm to the House and Canadians that the auto pact plan, presented by the Conservatives through the member forand the, holds water. Those were the words he spoke. We know the plan that the Liberals have been following does not hold water. We have [more]

C-9 Mr. Speaker, it is a privilege to rise in the House to give my thoughts on Bill. C-9 Hate, threats and intimidation are real. The issue is not whether hate exists, because it does. As a Christian, I condemn it. The issue is the Liberals using Billto criminalize lawful speech, emotion and expression, sincerely held religious beliefs and ordinary public discourse. That is what this bill is [more]

Mr. Speaker, the member is conflating many different thoughts in his question. minister Themade it very clear when he was the chairman of the committee that books in the Bible, such as Deuteronomy, Leviticus and Romans, were, in his opinion, hate language. If a pastor or a Sunday school teacher were to teach, in a good-faith way, what is written in those books, then under the removal of that [more]

Mr. Speaker, as we all know, and as Canadians should know, the Liberals made a deal with the Bloc to garner support for the bill. The Bloc had one request: to remove the good-faith religious exemption from the Criminal Code. The Liberals said, “Sure, we'll throw them under the bus. We really don't care. We want this legislation passed. We want to be able to control speech, emotion, thought and [more]

C-9 Mr. Speaker, my friend has done a phenomenal job on the justice committee of identifying the problems with Billand defending not only the Christian faith but all faiths that would be implicated in this legislation. When I look at my community, I do not think there has been a bill or an issue that has had more correspondence directed to me, or to many members in this House on both sides, with [more]

Minister of Canadian Identity and Culture Mr. Speaker, when I left off before question period, I was talking about a comment that themade at committee. He said that books from the Holy Bible, such as Deuteronomy, Leviticus and Romans, would be considered hate language. We were just diving into Romans and found out that the author was the apostle Paul, who was raised as a Jew in the strict sect of [more]

Mr. Speaker, the Liberal government treats inflation as if it were a natural disaster, something it cannot control, when in reality it is a policy it authored. The Liberals are not just watching prices rise; they are actively driving the spike with a tax-and-spend agenda that ignores the reality of the Canadian kitchen table. The industrial carbon tax is a prime example. It is not just another [more]

Thanks, Mr. Chair. Thank you to all the witnesses for your presentations. Mr. Breton, I'll start with you. Did your organization receive $300,000 of federal funding to develop training curriculum for the ZEVs? Did you receive a federal grant?

Then you have a vested interest in promoting EVs. Is that correct?
