Mr. Speaker, I am pleased to present a petition signed by the great people of Pickering—Uxbridge, Whitby and the Liberal Minister of Health's very own riding of Ajax. They call on the House to immediately repeal sections 500 to 504 of Bill C-47, which was passed last year. These amendments made to the Food and Drugs Act are new regulatory constraints on natural health products that millions of Can…

Mr. Speaker, I am also pleased to rise to present a petition on behalf of the great people from the healthy-living riding of Renfrew—Nipissing—Pembroke who are calling on the government to refrain from endorsing the so-called pandemic treaty drafted by the World Health Organization, which had never received a single debate or vote in the House of Commons. The concern is that, by agreeing to this l…

Mr. Speaker, today Feed Ontario released its annual hunger report. Over one million Ontarians had to access the food bank in the last year. That is more than double the number from the last four years. Every day, more Canadians struggle to afford food because of the actions of the Prime Minister. Higher prices are the official policy of the Liberal Party. The Liberals plan to quadruple the carbon …

Madam Speaker, the Liberals deny, distract and delay, and that is exactly what that question was doing. We are here today because there is every indication that the government is hiding corruption. We have seen a bit of what has already surfaced in the papers, but we want to see how deeply it runs. That is what this debate is about. As soon as the Liberals produce the documents required by Parliam…

Madam Speaker, they have to stop taxing Canadians and taking that tax under the guise of being able to change the weather, and they have to stop giving that tax money to the friends of Liberals, so they can invent alternative forms of energy production that end up costing taxpayers and homeowners even more. We went through this already in Ontario. People had to decide whether they would heat their…

Madam Speaker, there have been several bills before the House, including the one to tax the Internet. There have been many censorship bills, such as Bill C-11, which restricted what we can see and hear on the Internet. With all of this, be it the carbon tax or anything that makes life more expensive, it is the goal of the government to make life less affordable. All that is meant, as the Prime Min…

Madam Speaker, this is about the demand for the production of documents. The Liberals may wish to hide everything off in a committee someplace, but by keeping it at the forefront, Canadians are reminded, and some for the very first time, that the Liberals will not hand over documents. The corruption we have seen in a fraction of the documents that the Auditor General audited is just the tip of the…

Madam Speaker, the climate has been changing since earth was first created. We have gone through hundreds of millions of years. In fact, this place where we are now used to be a desert at one point, and at another point it was buried by a glacier. It is really insulting to ask whether or not somebody believes in climate change, unless of course they are referring to the church of climate change, s…

Madam Speaker, had the member been listening, the question asked of me was whether or not there was climate change, to which I said of course there was. If the other member wants to dream up some other conspiracy theory, she is quite welcome to.

Madam Speaker, my colleague said that things were not this bad before the Liberals came into power and they will not be that bad if everyone who wants to get rid of the corrupt government comes out in person and votes in the next election for a Conservative government.

Mr. Speaker, I have a second petition here, if you would allow me. I would also like to present a petition signed by the people from Whitby, Ajax and Pickering—Uxbridge, who are devastated by the government's carbon tax, which is making their lives more expensive by increasing their costs for fuel, food and housing. Now this government plans to quadruple the tax that would only make lives more exp…

Madam Speaker, an individual working around the near surface disposal facility will receive less exposure to radiation in a year than an individual taking a flight from Vancouver to Toronto. What insurance company is denying, or potentially denying, coverage to anyone along the Ottawa River on the basis of the building of this near surface disposal facility?

Mr. Speaker, I know my colleague had some reservations when the issue of the near-surface disposal facility arose. The member who asked a prior question from the Bloc talked about a catastrophic failure. I do not believe he has actually gone there or understands that there is no active reactor on site. Did my colleague take the time to go to Chalk River to have all his questions answered? It does …

Madam Speaker, I have two points to make. First, the member opposite and her party are propping up a government that was involved in trying to get SNC-Lavalin off the hook for all its corruption. Second, the real big piece of misinformation or disinformation, whichever we choose, is that the Government of Canada sold it off. AECL still owns Chalk River Laboratories. The company that came in to ope…

Madam Speaker, as a matter of fact, there was a similar facility built just outside of Port Hope. Now, it is not exactly the same as the one at Chalk River because the one at Port Hope was specifically designed to work with the geology of the land in much the same way that the one in Chalk River would. With nuclear production, in any type of nuclear business, what is required is that, before the o…

Mr. Speaker, my colleague continues to mention $400 million that is missing. Is it not correct that the Auditor General chose a selection of 58 files that the SDTC had granted money to and, potentially, the number is much bigger?

Madam Speaker, the member started off by saying the world is on fire, Canada is on fire. It was revealed that Parks Canada had wanted to do controlled burns for Jasper since 2022 yet was denied by the government. Did the Liberals intentionally allow Jasper to burn to justify their carbon tax that is sending a million Canadians a month to food banks?

Madam Speaker, the debate we are having today is in respect to an environmental statement that is wrong-headed and totally full of disinformation. We are correcting the record now. Quite apart from that, the fact that at least $400 million was misappropriated and Canadians want it to be paid back just goes to show us what little disdain the Liberals think Canadians have for their waste of money.

Mr. Speaker, the member opposite was trying to pose a question to the opposition about what he wants us to explain. He will get his chance to ask questions of the government when he is sitting in opposition. The reason we do not have any confidence in Bill C-63 is that the government would be choosing the censors, and the government has failed at everything it has attempted to do. The people have …

Mr. Speaker, a secret government report confirms what Canadians already know, which is that the carbon tax is costing Canadians more than they are getting back. The report says the carbon tax is costing Canadians $30 billion a year. That is almost $2,000 a household per year. The government is not worth the cost. When will the environment minister resign?
