I was pleased to rise in the House to support Motion No. 207, to recognize every May 5 in Canada as Dutch Heritage Day. It also gives me great pleasure to congratulate the member for Chatham-Kent—Leamington, a southwestern Ontario riding, for his initiative.

I recently met with the Ann McIntyre, President of The Petawawa Heritage Society, to announce a $19,000 accessibility grant. I would like to thank the Enabling Accessibility program for accepting Petawawa Heritage Society’s application.

Justin Trudeau simply cannot continue to govern this great nation now that Canadians know what he has done. He has lost the moral authority to govern. He must resign. The RCMP must immediately open an investigation into the numerous examples of potentially criminal activity Ms. Wilson-Raybould detailed. This was clearly an unwanted, sustained, and co-ordinated […]
Justin Trudeau still has not come clean to Canadians about his knowledge of and role in reported attempts from his office to influence the criminal prosecution of SNC-Lavalin. Mr. Trudeau must answer the following 20 questions immediately: On his Sept. 17, 2018 meeting with Jody Wilson-Raybould: 1. Did he request this meeting? 2. Was he […]
