Report from Parliament September 2016 – Paying For Bad Spending
Canada is a Nation of Debt. This year the average household debt hit almost 168%. Canadian households on average hold $1.68 in debt for every dollar they earn after taxes and other fees paid to government.

MP Cheryl Gallant Concerned UN Peacekeeping Mission Set For Failure
I spoke out today in response to the Liberal government announcement that it is prepared to risk the lives of 600 Canadian soldiers for the “selfie” Prime Minister’s vanity project to buy a seat on the United Nations Security Council.

Report from Parliament – August 2016
At the end of June, Canada was host to a meeting with the Presidents of the United States and Mexico.

It seems every summer my office receives calls from constituents about someone going door-to-door trying to sell some unwanted ...

Trudeau Liberals Approve Ontario Hydro Sale
Consumers are the big losers with the decision by the Trudeau Liberals to rubber stamp the recent sale of Great Lakes Power Transmission to Ontario Hydro (now called Hydro One). Earlier this year in Parliament, I asked the Minister of Innovation, Science and Economic Development to launch an inquiry into Ontario electricity rates. I asked ...

MP Gallant Defends Family Campgrounds
I am calling on the Trudeau Liberals to drop plans to go after private, family-run campgrounds as a source of revenue to pay for out-of-control spending. This is a direct assault on middle class Canadians. Jobs in rural Ontario are scarce. This is another attack on rural Canada. Referring to the little noticed headline in ...

Is Political Correctness Putting Canadians at Risk?
Is political correctness putting Canadians at risk? That question needs to be asked following ill-advised comments made by senior Trudeau advisors about the recent vote in Great Britain to leave the European Union (EU). The referendum vote for British Exit from the EU, dubbed “BREXIT,” while encouraging a debate on the benefits of trade, also ...
