No one seems to be talking about solutions. That was just one of the points raised by a group of flood victims, who recently met with me to talk about flooding in the Ottawa Valley. Everyone has questions and wants answers. Corey Spence, Dave Smyth, Maurice Leger, and Sue Samson are members of an informal […]
Thank you to the many volunteers and relief workers for their efforts as we deal with the flood of 2019. I know for many volunteers, filling sandbags is back-breaking work. It can be very heart-breaking to lose irreplaceable family heirlooms to the rising floodwaters. We may not yet have reached the high-level point of the […]
Agricultural associations such as the Canadian Federation of Agriculture, the Grain Growers of Canada and the Canadian Cattlemen’s Association have sounded the alarm over Bill C-68, the Liberal law they believe “will place a crippling regulatory burden on family-owned operations.” Bill C-68 amends the Fisheries Act. It could lead to puddles in farm fields being […]
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. Parliament will be losing a great member of Parliament, as the member […]
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. These funds will go towards building a walkway suitable for wheelchairs throughout the Petawawa Heritage Village. The project will start this […]
The Liberal party sent the wrong Easter Message when it denied funding for summer students sponsored by faith-based organizations. Churches and other faith-based organizations should not be forced to choose between staying true to their values and seeking grants for summer students to help them run programs — from summer camps, homeless shelters to soup […]
The decision to oppose transparency legislation confirms the worst fears Canadians have about the governing Liberals. Their vote against Bill C-278, proves the federal Liberals are not concerned about foreign interference. They are just using the issue to set up a censorship board for the upcoming federal election. The Foreign Lobbyist Transparency Act, which I […]
It’s baaaaaaacck. Bill C-68. No, not Bill C-68 that was the original Liberal gun registry legislation. In the current Parliament anti-hunter legislation has been re-numbered Bill C-71. I am referring to Bill C-68 in this Parliament. Like the original Bill C-68, the current Bill seeks to take away the rights of private property owners. It […]
Advancing ethics in politics through gender equality will be a top priority for a new Conservative Government. March 8, International Women’s Day, provides an opportunity to recognize the actions of ethical women in federal politics. The women who were forced to resign or quit due to the unethical behavior of the Liberal Party should be […]
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 […]
