Prime Minister Mr. Speaker, thetells Canadians to buy Canadian, but government contracts to American companies have increased by 50% since he took office. Now, LNG Canada plans to use foreign steel for its expansion, while Canadian steel companies say they can do the work. Canadian steelworkers need jobs. The Liberals give slogans, all talk and no results. Conservatives are fighting for lumber [more]

Mr. Speaker, this is one of the rare occasions where I stand up in the House to debate a bill where I am not totally at odds with it. I am here with the intention to work with the Liberal government on this. I have outlined what is important to me, but on what the member has outlined, we could definitely get behind that. Hiring workers is not a bad thing, but the things I have outlined here are [more]

Mr. Speaker, I will take the question and criticisms from the member for Hamilton Centre with respect. Prime Minister C-5 I have been talking about section 107 of the Labour Code in my speech today. We all, in principle, want this country to move forward. Most of the examples the member gave were MOUs. With respect to the $500 billion, the projects are all announcements. Currently, thehas the [more]

C-39 Mr. Speaker, I rise today to speak to Bill, the building Canada strong act, and what it means for the workers, families and businesses in Hamilton East—Stoney Creek. In my community, building Canada is something people do every day. They make the steel that supports our buildings, as we see in the House. They manufacture the parts that keep our industries running. They work in the trades, [more]

Mr. Speaker, I thank my colleague for his expertise on this and for bringing something very important to the House, which may have been looked over. Of course, that should be tabled right away. The people in the riding I represent, Hamilton as a whole, and workers all across this country want to see exactly what this brilliant member has just mentioned.

Prime Minister Mr. Speaker, the Liberals have talked about holding the company accountable, but I am going to do my job and hold the government accountable. The's duty is to keep Canada in a competitive business climate, but he has failed. I have stood in the House multiple times to warn the Prime Minister this was coming. The out-of-touch Liberals need to understand we cannot build without [more]

Prime Minister Mr. Speaker, there was devastating news last week. Chris, a Stelco employee, called me to say that he and 350 of his fellow union Local 1005 steelworkers are out of a job. This is the human cost of the's failed attempts to get a tariff deal, the same deal he promised Canadians over a year and a half ago. Now the tariffs are still here, bigger than before, and Hamilton steelworkers [more]

Mr. Speaker, Todd Baylis, a Toronto police constable, was tragically shot and killed in the line of duty, and now Mr. Baylis's family has to attend multiple parole hearings for his killer. Victims' families should not be forced to relive their most traumatic moments just to keep these vile criminals behind bars where they belong. C-243 Conservative Billwould have extended the time between parole [more]

Mr. Speaker, my colleague's community knows that he is fighting for them and trying to save them money along the way. We are here to save Canadians money. We are proposing to cut all of the fuel tax, but what other ideas does he have to save his community money and all Canadians money in these turbulent economic times?

Mr. Speaker, the stories I hear from my riding are these: “Keep fighting for me. Keep trying to lower taxes. Keep the Liberal government accountable. We trust in you, and we know that you are going to go to Parliament to fight for us”, just as I am fighting today to cut all the fuel tax for Canadians to put money back in their pocket.

Mr. Speaker, for years Conservatives have been calling on the Liberal government to provide meaningful relief to Canadians. We have raised concerns about the rising costs of gas, transportation and groceries, and have warned of the pressure facing families, workers, seniors and small businesses. Today, the government is extending a fuel tax relief measure that it originally said would be [more]

Mr. Speaker, the member raises some very good points. The Liberals did break their election promise, but they have also broken a lot of other promises. We were supposed to get a deal in July. Prime Minister Going back to her question, I agree with her. I agree that Canadian money should stay in Canada, but what can I say? Theholds about 93% of his stock assets in U.S. companies, so why do we [more]

Mr. Speaker, I would like to thank the member for his question. He also fights very hard for his community. What should we be doing? There is a lot, but we need to start with getting rid of the fuel tax. It is the one thing that Canadians can feel right away. I would propose, although this is not the forum for it, our Conservative economic plan. We have identified $150 billion in savings that [more]

Mr. Speaker, it is great to be back in Ottawa, where we get to bring the concerns of our communities back to Parliament. One thing is clear after hearing from all the good people of Hamilton East—Stoney Creek this summer: The Liberal government is not hearing them. I heard from Annie, a senior who relies on CPP, OAS and food banks to get by. It is because of the cost of living crisis that she [more]
