00:00:00.000 Lost homes, encampments of refugees in Canada's suburbs, tariff wars with allies.
00:00:05.000 One man's ego is not worth this cost.
00:00:09.000 No single person matters more than our country.
00:00:12.000 Team Canada wants the Prime Minister to take his own advice and do the right thing.
00:00:17.000 Call an election now. Let's bring it home. 0.95
00:00:20.000 I see that the Honourable Member from Dartmouth-Coal Harbour is wearing his finery today, so I can only imagine what this is about.
00:00:34.160 I'm certain all members will want to get their attention.
00:00:36.000 The Honourable Member.
00:00:38.140 Thank you very much, Mr. Speaker.
00:00:40.000 I think we can all use a little chuckle today, so with that, I'm proud to deliver this year's Liberal Christmas Roast.
00:00:45.780 It was a week before Christmas, Conservative MPs were muzzled.
00:00:50.780 Our investments in housing have all PP puzzled.
00:00:53.780 Their party won't talk about foreign interference.
00:00:57.780 For Christmas, will their leader get his security clearance?
00:01:01.780 Dental care? Child care? What more could there be?
00:01:05.780 School food and pharmacare?
00:01:07.780 Thanks to the NDP!
00:01:10.780 They tore up our deal. They started to gloat.
00:01:13.780 But guess what happened on the next confidence vote?
00:01:17.400 Supply management and seniors, the bloc has lots to say.
00:01:21.540 I don't really understand, Mr. Speaker,
00:01:23.220 je ne parle pas français.
00:01:26.680 To calm caucus rebels, we cut the GST,
00:01:29.640 a small gift from the Liberals and me.
00:01:33.700 Groceries are high, there's trouble with the mail,
00:01:36.840 but we still have a chance to win Cloverdale.
00:01:39.620 Now, Mr. Speaker, it's not a contest, so I don't mean to brag, but it's only our leader
00:01:49.920 whose name is on a flag.
00:01:59.480 One final thought though, Mr. Speaker, one final thought though, Canada ain't broke,
00:02:05.640 though I will admit we may be a bit woke.
00:02:08.720 Mr. Speaker, colleagues, Merry Christmas
00:02:11.820 and happy holidays too.
00:02:13.820 May we all get a Christmas card from a Randy or two.
00:02:38.720 Mr. Speaker, the Prime Minister has lost control, but he is clinging to power.
00:03:05.540 We knew that he had lost control of the boaters, of immigration, of spending, of inflation,
00:03:12.900 of the cost of housing, but now he has lost control of his cabinet.
00:03:19.080 The Vice Prime Minister, the Deputy Prime Minister, the Minister of Finance has stepped
00:03:25.300 down and she stepped down hours before presenting Canada's fall economic statement with an enormous
00:03:31.960 deficit.
00:03:33.300 When will we have an election?
00:03:40.300 Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
00:03:43.300 Our government is looking forward to presenting the economic statement this afternoon.
00:03:48.300 And I would like to take this opportunity to thank the member for University Rosedale
00:03:53.300 for everything that she has done for this country
00:03:56.300 and everything that she will continue to do for this country.
00:03:59.300 Her accomplishments make quite a long list and her place in history is assured
00:04:04.480 and we are very proud of everything that she has done for this government.
00:04:16.400 He clings to power.
00:04:22.080 He's lost control of immigration, lost control of the borders,
00:04:24.480 lost control of spending, deficits, inflation, housing costs.
00:04:29.300 In fact, his former, apparently, finance minister was trying to get spending under control by capping the deficit at an already crazy $40 billion.
00:04:41.300 But he took carbon tax Carney's advice and pushed her beyond that guardrail and was trying to throw her off the cliff.
00:04:50.180 She's now resigned minutes before presenting her fall economic update.
00:04:54.400 This cannot go on. When will we have a carbon tax election?
00:04:59.300 Honourable Leader of the Government and the House of Commons.
00:05:04.600 Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
00:05:06.520 Mr. Speaker, our government looks forward to presenting the fall economic statement
00:05:10.040 later this afternoon, but I would also like to take this opportunity to extend my gratitude
00:05:15.080 for all that the member from the University of Rosedale has accomplished for this country
00:05:19.300 and will continue to do for this country.
00:05:22.400 She has played an integral role during this government.
00:05:25.240 First of all, standing out for Canada and defending NAFTA, bringing forward universal
00:05:30.340 child care, and the incredible work that she has done in defending Ukraine, we are very
00:05:34.820 grateful for all that she's contributed to this government and to Canada.
00:05:37.860 Thank you.
00:05:45.640 I'm going to have this.
00:05:46.780 The Honourable Leader of the Opposition, for the Finance Minister, who are you?
00:05:55.240 The Honourable Leader of the Government in the House of Commons.
00:06:02.240 Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
00:06:04.240 Mr. Speaker, at a time when Canadians are struggling,
00:06:07.240 we are happy to bring forward measures that are going to assist them.
00:06:11.240 Things like the GST tax cut that took place starting this past Saturday,
00:06:16.240 going until February 15th.
00:06:18.240 And while the Conservative leader and the members of his caucus
00:06:22.240 Stay focused on us. We're going to stay focused on helping people.
00:06:29.600 The Honourable Leader of the Opposition.
00:06:32.640 Mr. Speaker, it was a serious question. Who, who is the Finance Minister?
00:06:39.520 After the Finance Minister's resignation this morning, automatically the Industry Minister
00:06:45.200 became minister of finance and congratulations but he immediately quit after him in the line
00:06:55.520 of precedence it was the two randys well they don't want it so now we don't have a finance minister
00:07:03.600 just a couple of minutes before the fall economic statement will be presented so where's the minister
00:07:09.920 The Honourable Leader of the Government in the House of Commons.
00:07:21.300 Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
00:07:22.840 As I said, our government is looking forward to presenting the fall economic statement later this afternoon.
00:07:30.500 There are important measures in that update, measures that are important for Canadians.
00:07:35.440 It's time for the leader of the Conservatives to recognize that while he's focused on us, we are focused on Canadians.
00:07:45.480 The Honourable Leader of the Opposition.
00:07:48.360 Mr. Speaker, just to underline the chaos we're faced with here, the Finance Minister resigned the day she was to present the fall budget, which was going to contain a massive deficit overrun.
00:08:01.520 The job then went automatically to the industry minister, who immediately resigned, like on the spot, which then went down the line.
00:08:10.760 And the next person in order was the famous two Randys.
00:08:15.400 And they're not available to the job either.
00:08:17.540 We're now less than two hours away from the fall economic update.
00:08:21.320 Why won't the prime minister have the courage to come in here, present it himself and put it for a confidence vote tonight?
00:08:31.520 I would like to remind all members, as I did during statements today, for members to be
00:08:48.160 careful not to refer to other sitting members by their names, but to use their titles or
00:08:53.760 to use their writing notes.
00:08:54.980 The Honourable Leader of the Government in the House of Commons.
00:08:59.260 Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
00:09:00.240 Well, Mr. Speaker, while the Leader of the Opposition continues to play politics in this place,
00:09:07.240 we look forward to presenting the fall economic statement later this afternoon
00:09:13.240 that will have a series of important measures for Canadians,
00:09:17.240 things that are going to help them with the affordability challenges
00:09:20.240 that are going to put Canada, Canadian jobs, and the Canadian economy first.
00:09:24.240 Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
00:09:26.240 I would like to ask the Honourable Member from St. Albert, Edmonton, to please not take the floor when he is not recognized by the Speaker.
00:09:45.800 The Honourable Member for La Prairie.
00:09:47.760 we already knew that between 20 and 40 liberal mps no longer had confidence in the prime minister
00:09:56.700 we also knew that eight ministers would be jumping ship today the minister of finance decided to step
00:10:02.760 down instead of presenting the fall economic statement she wrote black and white that she
00:10:07.900 disagrees with the prime minister on the best path forward for canada so she has also taken
00:10:14.020 away her confidence in the prime minister we are watching this government this liberal
00:10:18.420 government fall apart and it's pretty ugly to see will the prime minister call an election
00:10:28.500 the honorable government house leader thank you mr speaker and i would like to thank my
00:10:34.420 colleague for his question as i mentioned as a government we are looking forward to presenting
00:10:40.900 the fall economic statement later this afternoon. There are important measures in there for Canadians
00:10:48.900 when it comes to affordability in particular and we are exclusively focused on Canadians
00:10:54.580 and we will continue to protect Canadian economy and Canadian jobs.
00:11:00.100 The Honourable Member for La Prairie. The Deputy Prime Minister has quit because of the Liberals'
00:11:06.740 electoral handouts she said that canadians know when we're working for them and when we're focused
00:11:11.540 on ourselves mr speaker people can see through their political games quebeckers don't want these 1.00
00:11:16.980 political handouts businesses don't want them even the finance minister doesn't want them the only
00:11:21.620 person who wants these is the ndp leader and the prime minister of canada will they finally stop
00:11:29.940 uh sabotaging canada's economy for uh you know so they can buy votes
00:11:34.500 The Honourable Leader of the Government and the House of Commons.
00:11:38.820 Thank you Mr. Speaker. And once again I would like to thank my colleague for his question.
00:11:48.020 Cutting the GST on essentials for Canadians is something that's important for many Canadians
00:11:56.020 and I've heard from many people in my riding who have said that this is something that is
00:12:01.780 important for them restaurants small and medium-sized businesses say that this is something
00:12:07.140 that's important for them and we are proud of having put that motion forward the honorable
00:12:12.500 member from burnaby south people can't afford their groceries people can't find a home to call their
00:12:21.060 and the concerns are lacking.
00:12:27.060 Order! Order!
00:12:43.060 The Honourable Member from Burnaby, sounds from the top, please.
00:12:46.060 Canadians literally cannot afford the groceries they need they can't afford to find a home to
00:12:55.120 call their own and now Trump buddies of the conservatives MAGA conservatives love this guy
00:13:00.080 Trump is threatening hundreds of thousands of jobs in Canada and the prime minister is more focused
00:13:07.720 on himself, on infighting.
00:13:10.940 The Prime Minister cannot remain in that position.
00:13:14.620 Will he resign?
00:13:20.640 The Honourable Minister for Innovation.
00:13:23.980 Mr. Speaker, this is not the time for slogan.
00:13:27.320 This is not the time for partisanship.
00:13:30.540 This is not a time to make jokes, Mr. Speaker.
00:13:34.680 This is about rallying for Canadians.
00:13:36.560 This is a time where Canadians need to know that this House and all the members are standing behind them, that we're going to invest in Canadians, that we're going to invest in this country, that we're going to invest in our workers, and that we're going to invest in our industry, Mr. Speaker, and that we're going to prepare Canada to be the best prepared to be able to deal with our U.S. friends.
00:13:55.920 Mr. Speaker, this is a time where we show that we're all Canadians.
00:13:59.100 the honorable member for burnaby south there so ask again in french people are having a very hard
00:14:13.020 time paying for groceries young people can't find affordable housing and beyond that we have
00:14:19.660 the threat of trump's tariffs and that's putting hundreds of thousands of jobs in canada in danger
00:14:25.980 and instead of dealing with issues that are important for canadians the prime minister is
00:14:30.940 dealing with fighting in his own party it's clear that the prime minister cannot continue will he
00:14:36.540 resign today yes or no the honorable minister of innovation mr speaker as i said this isn't a time
00:14:46.620 for jokes this isn't a time for partisanship it's certainly not time for conservative slogans mr
00:14:52.780 speaker it's time mr speaker to work together as parliamentarians to defend canada to invest in
00:14:59.980 canada to defend our workers to invest in our industry and mr speaker i call on all members
00:15:08.700 of this house to do their civic duty to work for the good of canada so that we can face the incoming
00:15:14.300 american administration mr speaker today we are all canadians let's work together
00:15:18.140 The Honourable Leader of the Opposition.
00:15:22.420 Mr. Speaker, the NDP leader is absolutely right.
00:15:26.840 This cannot continue.
00:15:28.680 This Prime Minister cannot go on like this.
00:15:32.040 Housing costs have doubled.
00:15:33.680 Food bank use has doubled.
00:15:35.500 The debt has doubled.
00:15:36.800 Gun crime has doubled.
00:15:38.380 And now we face troubling tariff threats from a president who can see weakness coming from a mile away.
00:15:46.440 The prime minister must leave this job, but there's only one person who can remove him, and that's the leader of the NDP.
00:15:55.780 Will he put the country ahead of his pension and vote for a carbon tax election now?
00:16:16.440 So, although the preamble to that question dealt with the administration of government,
00:16:35.600 the question itself did not, and the Chair has made it clear that we are not doing that.
00:16:40.240 The Honourable Member from Thornhill.
00:16:42.240 The Prime Minister has lost control.
00:16:44.720 The prime minister's own deputy quit just hours before her economic statement, all of a sudden saying Canadians know when we're focused on ourselves and describing a newfound disdain for costly political gimmicks.
00:16:56.300 Those are her quotes. This after her own political rival, Mark Carney wrote the fall economic statement full of things that she didn't want to present.
00:17:02.860 The old boys club isn't in charge. Canadians are. And it's time for credible leadership in the seriousness of this moment, not the fake feminism of this phony prime minister.
00:17:12.360 It's time for Canadians to decide. So will anyone or everyone over there finally agree?
00:17:21.520 The Honourable Leader of the Government in the House of Commons.
00:17:24.880 Thank you, Mr. Speaker. As I mentioned earlier, we are looking forward today to presenting the fall economic statement.
00:17:31.160 It's going to have a series of important measures for Canadians.
00:17:35.080 At a time like this, it is important that all of us band together, united as Canadians,
00:17:41.620 to make sure that we're doing everything we can to protect the Canadian economy,
00:17:46.220 protect Canadian jobs, and to stand up for Canada.
00:17:49.480 Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
00:17:52.480 The Honourable Member for Thornhill.
00:17:54.960 Mr. Speaker, they can't even stand by each other.
00:17:57.240 Hours before delivering the fiscal update, the Finance Minister resigned.
00:18:01.760 She lost confidence in the Prime Minister.
00:18:04.380 Last night, the failed housing minister and the worst immigration minister in the history of this country also resigned.
00:18:10.600 A couple of randies, and now they're up to nine ministers that need to be replaced. 0.84
00:18:15.020 He's lost control of the government.
00:18:17.140 The party of backroom boys is over.
00:18:19.320 The backbench should look up from their laptops.
00:18:21.200 And the NDP leader shouldn't be the only one in this house with confidence in the prime minister.
00:18:25.840 Present the statement and call a vote today.
00:18:34.000 Again, I'm just going to, for the last time, order, order, and ask members once again to
00:18:52.580 remind themselves not to refer to members by their first name.
00:18:55.800 The Honourable Minister for Housing, Infrastructure and Community.
00:18:58.580 Now, Mr. Speaker, I'm not sure who she's talking about, but I'm still here for now.
00:19:04.600 I can guarantee you, Mr. Speaker, that there are two kinds of people who run for office in politics.
00:19:11.840 There are people who want to do something, and there are people who want to be somebody.
00:19:16.180 And I can tell you, on our side of the house, we want to do things.
00:19:19.560 We want to build the houses to make sure families can afford to keep the roll of food over their heads.
00:19:23.740 We want to make sure families can afford to keep their food on the table to feed their kids. 0.97
00:19:27.580 We want to make sure people can find a job to go to that gives them a sense of pride and allows them to contribute to their communities.
00:19:33.600 On the Conservative side, their guy has been writing essays about why he should be Prime Minister since he was a teenager.
00:19:44.580 The Honourable Member for Calgary Nose Hill.
00:19:47.660 On Friday, the Prime Minister told Canada's first female finance minister that she was fired,
00:19:52.540 but to keep sweet and present their wildly overspent budget on Monday so that he and an
00:19:57.420 unelected man, Mark Carbontax Carney, wouldn't have to take the blame for their broken budget.
00:20:03.340 He then, unbothered, released a video of him making cinnamon buns to get the women folks vote.
00:20:10.380 How can any woman in that caucus defend that man instead of calling for an election now? 1.00
00:20:17.660 The Honourable Leader of the Government in the House of Commons.
00:20:27.440 Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I didn't realize cinnamon buns were a gendered food, but what I would say is that her question says more about how that member and Conservative members view women in this country than anything else. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
00:20:43.440 The Allable Member for Calgary, Nose Hill.
00:20:49.180 ...are facing violence in the streets. They can't afford groceries. They can't afford to buy
00:20:55.960 presents for their kids for the holidays. They can't afford anything. Canadian women are far 1.00
00:21:01.020 worse off under this fake feminist Prime Minister. And now he fired Canada's first female finance 1.00
00:21:09.340 Minister because she dared question him. That sounds pretty familiar. No strong woman exists 1.00
00:21:15.080 in that caucus. Why would any woman defend this man instead of calling for an election? 1.00
00:21:27.880 The Honourable Leader of the Government in the House of Commons.
00:21:31.040 You know, Mr. Speaker, I have a lot of respect for that member opposite, but I think she's 0.98
00:21:35.460 speaking from her own experience with the leader of the official opposition when she said that
00:21:39.900 she wasn't going to support him and then spent a year in the hinterlands. But what I will say
00:21:45.320 is that when it comes to actually doing things that support women, we have done that on this
00:21:50.660 side of the House. Whether it's affordable child care that is making it possible for hundreds of
00:21:55.420 thousands of women to join the workforce, making contraceptions free, or the Canada Child Benefit 0.86
00:22:00.500 that is helping families pay the bills, and what do Conservative members of Parliament do every time?
00:22:04.600 they vote against them. So actions speak louder than words, Mr. Speaker.
00:22:11.040 The Honourable Member for Wellington, Halton Hills.
00:22:14.840 Mr. Speaker, this Prime Minister has lost control. He's lost control of the economy.
00:22:20.760 He's lost control of immigration. He's lost control of so many files. And now he's lost
00:22:27.280 control of the government. It's long past time for an election. This Prime Minister has
00:22:34.500 sat too long here for any good that he has been doing. In the name of God, will he go to Rideau Hall,
00:22:41.540 call an election, and end the chaos?
00:22:55.300 Order. The Honourable Leader of the Government in the House of Commons.
00:23:00.580 Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
00:23:03.580 Mr. Speaker, as you well know, and as every member in this place knows,
00:23:07.580 just because a Conservative member of Parliament wishes something
00:23:10.580 does not mean that it actually happens.
00:23:12.580 But what happened over the past couple of weeks, Mr. Speaker,
00:23:16.580 is the government secured the confidence of this House,
00:23:20.580 and the government does enjoy the confidence of this House, Mr. Speaker,
00:23:24.580 and that is why we will be presenting the fall economic statement later today,
00:23:29.580 which we look forward to sharing with Canadians. Thank you.
00:23:32.580 Good answer.
00:23:36.580 The Honourable Member for La Prairie.
00:23:41.580 We're watching a historic moment here.
00:23:44.580 The Deputy Prime Minister quit saying that she disagreed with the Prime Minister
00:23:48.580 on the path forward for Canada.
00:23:50.580 The Deputy Prime Minister no longer has confidence in this Prime Minister to govern.
00:23:54.580 Her lack of confidence is added to that of eight other ministers.
00:23:57.580 ministers. The Prime Minister can't claim to have the confidence of the people if he doesn't even
00:24:01.540 have the confidence of his own ministers. Will he do the democratic thing and put his future
00:24:06.240 in the hands of the people and call elections? The Honourable Minister of Innovation. Mr. Speaker,
00:24:14.320 on this side of the House, I know that all of our colleagues want to work for Quebec and the entire
00:24:18.940 country. Mr. Speaker, at a time like this, what Quebecers expect is not to hear fiery slogans,
00:24:26.740 Mr. Speaker, they expect us to work together. This is a moment where we need to work together
00:24:31.400 to prepare Quebec and Quebec's industry to face the American administration. We need to prepare
00:24:37.160 Quebec and the rest of Canada to win in the 21st century economy. And I can tell all Quebecers
00:24:41.860 that that's what we're doing on this side of the house. That's what we wake up and do every day,
00:24:45.520 Mr. Speaker. We get up to serve Canadians. We want to be there for Quebecers and the whole
00:24:50.280 country will continue to do so. The Honourable Member for La Prairie. In 2020, the Prime
00:24:57.620 Minister made Bill Morneau step down because he wasn't spending enough and he put the current
00:25:03.900 Deputy Prime Minister in his place. She has now quit because she wasn't spending enough. Imagine
00:25:08.900 how much the third Finance Minister is going to have to spend to keep their job. They're going to
00:25:13.820 have to go over to the NDP to find somebody who's ready to spend that much. Seriously, this is
00:25:20.260 a disastrous economic statement. Will the Prime Minister resign?
00:25:29.060 The Honourable Minister of Innovation. Mr. Speaker, Quebecers know that the bloc likes to pick a
00:25:35.300 fight, Mr. Speaker. But today, Mr. Speaker, the government is going to present a fall economic
00:25:40.740 statement, Mr. Speaker, in which will show that we're there for Canada's industry and for workers
00:25:47.700 across the country. At a time like now, Mr. Speaker, what Quebecers and Canadians expect
00:25:51.980 from everyone, and especially from the Bloc Québécois, is that we'd be there to defend
00:25:55.200 their interests, that we'd be there for families, for seniors. That's exactly what we're doing on
00:25:59.180 this side of the house, and I hope the Bloc will stand up and support the government, Mr. Speaker.
00:26:04.260 The Honourable Member for La Prairie. The government is getting ready to table an economic
00:26:09.740 update without a finance minister. Nobody, not even the Liberals, wants to wear this economic
00:26:15.720 statement. It's the ultimate proof that we can't go forward with a $60 billion deficit just to
00:26:22.060 offer political gimmicks. A deficit for measures that neither Quebecers nor businesses have asked
00:26:27.940 for. Measures in this have been denounced by economists, including in the finance department.
00:26:34.200 It's not surprising that nobody in the Liberal Party wants to be responsible for it. Will the
00:26:38.120 Prime Minister do the right thing and stop with these measures? The Honourable Minister of
00:26:43.820 innovation. Mr. Speaker, we want to move forward. If the bloc wants to go backwards, that's up to
00:26:49.740 them. But on this side, we're going to go forward, Mr. Speaker. Why? Because families in Quebec,
00:26:54.860 Mr. Speaker, who are watching us need a government that's there for them, that's there for dental 0.75
00:26:58.980 care, for kids, for seniors, for industry, for Quebec, for Canada. Mr. Speaker, on this side
00:27:03.580 of the house, we'll continue to fight. We will continue to fight every day for all Canadians
00:27:08.700 because the country deserves that we be there to stand up for it, Mr. Speaker.
00:27:13.820 I would invite members to please not take the floor
00:27:20.120 when other members have been recognized by the Speaker.
00:27:27.860 Mr. Speaker, everyone knows it.
00:27:30.340 The Prime Minister has lost control.
00:27:31.840 He's lost control of immigration.
00:27:33.220 He's lost control of the cost of housing.
00:27:34.820 He's lost control of his caucus.
00:27:36.740 And finally, he's lost control of public spending.
00:27:39.400 And he's lost the confidence of his Deputy Prime Minister
00:27:42.280 and Minister of Finance.
00:27:43.140 The Prime Minister has caused a huge amount of damage for Canada.
00:27:46.180 We know it. Most Canadians know it.
00:27:49.060 But, you know, now it's time to say enough.
00:27:52.380 Can the Prime Minister please take his responsibility and call an election today?
00:27:59.120 The Honourable Minister of Labour and Seniors.
00:28:02.700 Mr. Speaker, the government later today will be presenting its economic plan.
00:28:07.280 It's a solid plan for Canadians, which will ensure fairness.
00:28:11.900 It will ensure good jobs, and it will continue to make sure that Canadians' economic interests are respected.
00:28:20.780 The Honourable Member for Charlemagneau de Saint-Charles.
00:28:23.120 Mr. Speaker, I can't believe that the minister believes the words he's saying.
00:28:27.060 We know that this doesn't make any sense.
00:28:29.140 The finance minister quit this morning because of this.
00:28:31.360 She knows that none of this makes any sense.
00:28:33.340 And the finance minister said that given the threat that we're facing, the way that we deal with that will define us for a generation.
00:28:46.940 We know that Canadians are smart.
00:28:48.820 Will the prime minister call an election today?
00:28:55.160 The honorable minister of labor and seniors.
00:28:57.500 It's time, Mr. Speaker, to put that partisanship aside and to rally as Canadians together because Canada will have to face a protectionist threat from the other side of the border.
00:29:14.040 And we are preparing for that, Mr. Speaker.
00:29:15.880 We will have a solid plan, and I hope that we will be able to count on that member and his party when Canada will face that threat.
00:29:24.780 The Honourable Member for Louis Saint Laurent.
00:29:28.420 Mr. Speaker, what's happening is serious and it's unprecedented.
00:29:33.260 The Deputy Prime Minister, the Minister of Finance, quit just a few hours before the fall economic statement.
00:29:39.560 It's just a bomb that's gone off because even in the United States and around the world, people are talking about this and in a bad way for Canada.
00:29:47.040 That's the reality that we're looking at today, Mr. Speaker.
00:29:49.240 the former finance minister said no more than 40 billion dollars of deficit the prime minister
00:29:56.380 pushed her aside to listen to mark carney will the minister of industry please tell us what
00:30:01.640 mark carney's deficit will be when it's presented in two hours
00:30:04.840 the honorable minister of innovation mr speaker i have a huge amount of respect for the member
00:30:11.320 for louis saint laurent and as my colleague has already said we will be presenting the fall
00:30:16.840 economic statement later today, Mr. Speaker, a fall economic statement that'll be there for
00:30:20.820 families. It's an economic statement that'll be there for workers, an economic statement that'll
00:30:24.660 be there for industry, but also, Mr. Speaker, an economic statement that'll be important.
00:30:29.000 And we're expecting that the Conservatives will be ready to support it so that we can
00:30:33.660 face the threat from the United States, Mr. Speaker. Canadians expect better than slogans,
00:30:38.580 Mr. Speaker. Canadians expect actions. Will the Conservatives have the courage to defend
00:30:43.220 at Canada and to vote with the government to prepare Canada for the future, Mr. Speaker.
00:30:48.760 The Honourable Member for London Fanshawe. Mr. Speaker, I've heard that Liberals are a
00:30:53.780 shiver looking for a spine to crawl up and we're seeing this play out in real time as they've let
00:30:58.560 postal workers and in fact all workers down. At this time when Canada Post's CEOs got bonus after
00:31:04.320 bonus while denying fair wages to its workers, this government continues to betray people and
00:31:10.440 cave to corporate interests. As the former Deputy Prime Minister said, Canadians know when their
00:31:15.580 government is not working for them, but working for themselves. New Democrats know where we stand.
00:31:20.360 We stand up for workers every single day. When will this government do the same?
00:31:26.560 The Honourable Minister Rabour and for seniors. Mr. Speaker, Canada went through a four-week
00:31:33.660 postal strike where letter carriers, who we do thank for their service to Canadians and who
00:31:40.400 I know we all have deep affinity for, were out for a very long time. Not only the government,
00:31:48.020 but the Canada Industrial Relations Board has judged there to be a fundamental impasse in the
00:31:54.160 negotiations. We have found an imaginative way forward, a way to get a collective agreement
00:32:00.880 for Canada Post and its hard-working letter carriers, Mr. Speaker.
00:32:04.840 the honorable member for nanaimo ladies mr speaker they are not listening the former deputy prime
00:32:15.420 minister said it best today canadians know when the government is working for them or for themselves
00:32:20.960 well the liberals have made it clear where their focus lies the minister of labor's out of touch
00:32:26.260 response last week to postal workers is a slap in the face they deserve safety at work and livable
00:32:32.740 wages. People are tired of the Liberals and Conservatives siding with rich CEOs at their
00:32:38.360 expense. Now Canadians want to know, will the Minister of Labour be the next to resign?
00:32:44.380 Hear, hear. The Honourable Minister of Labour and for seniors.
00:32:50.500 Mr. Speaker, as that member well knows, postal workers in Canada Post were struggling
00:32:55.860 to find a path forward at the negotiating table.
00:33:05.280 It had gone on for four weeks.
00:33:07.460 Canadians were, quite rightly, whether they were in Indigenous or remote communities, 1.00
00:33:12.780 whether they were small business persons, whether they were people expecting medicines,
00:33:18.020 Mr. Speaker, we were being pressed to act.
00:33:21.280 We found an imaginative way forward with an Industrial Inquiry Commission.
00:33:26.600 We will ensure that Canada Post operates for the holidays, Mr. Speaker, and we're glad that we did.
00:33:34.160 The Honourable Member for Winnipeg South Centre.
00:33:40.040 Mr. Speaker, I rise today to talk about something that's on everybody's mind.
00:33:44.940 And that is the Canadian Dental Care Plan.
00:33:47.180 Mr. Speaker, one out of four Canadians skipped a visit to the dentist because of the cost.
00:33:52.180 But thanks to the Canadian Dental Care Plan, more than one million Canadians now receive that care,
00:33:57.180 and every day that number continues to grow.
00:34:00.180 Mr. Speaker, applications for the Canadian Dental Care Plan opened for adults with a valid disability tax credit earlier this year.
00:34:08.180 Can the Minister of Diversity and Inclusion please tell us how persons with disabilities are being helped by this important plan?
00:34:15.180 The Honourable Minister for Diversity and Inclusion.
00:34:22.180 Mr. Speaker, the Canadian Dental Care Plan is already saving Canadians an average more than $730 per year.
00:34:29.180 This will help almost 200,000 persons living with disabilities access dental care.
00:34:34.180 Mr. Speaker, we know this is making a huge difference in the lives of people on the ground.
00:34:38.180 We also know, Mr. Speaker, dental care is health care, and we will continue to make sure Canadians are getting the support that they need.
00:34:44.180 that they need. Thank you.
00:34:48.200 The honorable member for Calgary Forest Lawn.
00:34:51.100 This week, Prime Minister has lost control.
00:34:52.900 Carbon Tax Carney wrote the fiscal update,
00:34:55.140 filled it with poison pills
00:34:56.340 so he could blame the Finance Minister
00:34:58.280 while pushing her off the fiscal cliff
00:34:59.940 so he can take her job
00:35:01.380 and eventually the Prime Minister's job.
00:35:03.400 The Finance Minister figured out the plan,
00:35:05.320 so she resigned in protest.
00:35:07.100 She said she no longer has confidence
00:35:08.600 in this weak Prime Minister
00:35:10.320 and Carbon Tax Carney's plan.
00:35:11.880 If the Prime Minister's own caucus and cabinet don't have confidence in them, even though the leader of the NDP does, why should Canadians?
00:35:22.520 The Honourable Minister for Housing, Infrastructure and Communities.
00:35:27.200 Mr. Speaker, in a moment where Canadians are looking for leadership, the Conservative asking the question can only come up with names to lobby towards his political opponents.
00:35:41.880 Colleagues, it is very important for us to just hear the question and hear the answer.
00:35:56.120 The Honourable Minister, from the start.
00:36:01.400 Mr. Speaker, the very best that the Conservatives can offer to this conversation is name-calling, mudslinging,
00:36:06.600 not solutions to the problems that Canadians are facing.
00:36:09.280 When I talk to people at home, they want their governments to be focusing on creating good jobs
00:36:13.020 to make sure people can afford to put food on the table.
00:36:15.200 They want to make sure that governments are advancing policies to invest in health care and housing.
00:36:19.520 They want to make sure we're doing more to protect the environment.
00:36:22.080 Every time we put policies on the table to accomplish these ends,
00:36:25.200 the Conservatives throw their hands up in the air, vote against, and just sling mud towards their opponents.
00:36:29.640 That is not what people in my community want. It is not what Canadians deserve. 0.99
00:36:33.260 We're going to advance solutions that introduce real and meaningful changes that will benefit people who live in this country.
00:36:40.780 I'm just going to ask the Honourable Member from Guffin-Calvin, please, to hold off on making comments while the other people have the floor.
00:36:48.220 The Honourable Member from Calgary, for us long.
00:36:53.020 He's right. After nine years of that incompetent minister and the Prime Minister, Canadians are looking for leadership.
00:36:58.660 Carbon tax Carney's Canadian comeback
00:37:00.920 fueled a fiscal feud for the former finance minister.
00:37:04.640 Carney wrote the fiscal update,
00:37:06.280 pushed insane inflationary spending
00:37:08.100 and brought in the two-month tax trick
00:37:09.900 while trying to blame the finance minister
00:37:13.180 for taking Canada's finances off a clip.
00:37:16.060 Will he stop passing the blame on to women in his caucus
00:37:18.440 and call a carbon tax election now
00:37:20.460 so common sense conservatives can give the power back to Canadians?
00:37:28.740 The Honorable Minister for Housing, Infrastructure and Communities.
00:37:32.640 Mr. Speaker, I was wrong before when I said all they had was name-calling.
00:37:36.520 Apparently, they have alliteration as well.
00:37:38.620 But, Mr. Speaker, that is not going to put food on the table for people who need it in my community or his.
00:37:43.400 It is not going to put a roof over the head of people who are vulnerable in this country.
00:37:47.320 Mr. Speaker, if he wants to make this argument about whether women will be supported,
00:37:51.920 I wonder if he has ever approached the leader of the Conservative Party
00:37:54.900 about using hashtags to specifically attract the attention of men who hate women to support him online.
00:38:01.760 I wonder if he's asked questions about why he's cancelled the investigation as to who was behind it,
00:38:06.160 or perhaps it's because he knows it was the Conservative leader himself.
00:38:14.220 The Alba member for Leeds, Grenville, Thousand Islands, and Rideau Lakes.
00:38:17.660 After nine years of this NDP Liberal government, everything is out of control.
00:38:21.140 home prices have doubled. Food bank use is seeing two million users in a single month. And the real
00:38:27.420 fiscal advisor to this prime minister wrote the financial update for this afternoon and included
00:38:32.660 a temporary two-month tax trick and is set to smash through the massive $40 billion deficit
00:38:38.680 promise that was made by the finance minister. When they tried to blame the economic vandalism
00:38:43.640 on her, she quit saying that she doesn't have confidence in this prime minister. Now, they can't
00:38:48.580 tell us how much they've spent. They can't tell us who's in charge. How can anyone have confidence
00:38:52.340 in this Prime Minister? The Honourable Minister for Housing, Infrastructure and Communities.
00:39:02.420 Mr. Speaker, the Conservatives seem to know the cost of everything but the value of nothing. They
00:39:07.180 do not see value in investing in child care, which has not only reduced costs for families,
00:39:11.580 but led to the largest increase in women's participation in the labour force in the 0.59
00:39:15.060 history of this country. They don't seem to believe there is value in investing in social
00:39:18.980 housing, in public housing, in affordable housing, so everyone in this country can have a roof over
00:39:23.120 their head. They don't believe in the value of the Canada Child Benefit, which is ensuring
00:39:27.200 middle-class families in this country can put food on the table. So before he continues to sling
00:39:31.540 mud and arrows on this side of the house, he perhaps should look inward and ask why he is
00:39:35.640 not even allowed to advocate on behalf of his community, because his leader has said that's
00:39:40.720 just not in order.
00:39:45.060 The Honourable Member for Leeds, Grenville, Thousand Islands, and Middle Lakes.
00:39:51.220 Yeah, we talk about having confidence.
00:39:52.800 This is coming from a minister who said just today
00:39:55.140 that he's not going to continue to serve in the cabinet of that prime minister,
00:39:58.380 just like the finance minister who said she doesn't have confidence,
00:40:01.420 or the seven other ministers over there,
00:40:03.340 or the one in five Liberal MPs who said they don't have confidence
00:40:06.600 in this NDP Liberal prime minister who broke housing,
00:40:09.680 who broke immigration, who broke our finances in this country.
00:40:12.660 These Liberals talk about costs, but they have absolutely no idea how much they've spent.
00:40:17.360 No government has ever spent so much to achieve as little as this government has.
00:40:23.340 We know why the NDP leader has confidence in this Prime Minister.
00:40:25.940 It's for his pension.
00:40:26.700 But why should Canadians? 1.00
00:40:31.600 The Honourable Minister for Housing, Infrastructure and Community.
00:40:34.460 Mr. Speaker, my Honourable colleagues write about one thing.
00:40:37.460 I did announce this morning that I'm not going to be seeking re-election.
00:40:40.500 But I can tell you, if he thinks that's a matter of confidence,
00:40:43.200 I can tell him it's that I have confidence I am going to be the best father to my kids
00:40:47.540 that I could possibly be for the rest of my life.
00:40:50.740 And that is what is most important to me.
00:40:52.840 But Mr. Speaker, while I have the floor,
00:40:55.120 I should say thank you for the opportunity to engage in the TED-a-TED over the years.
00:40:58.820 This may be one of the last opportunities that I have,
00:41:01.340 and I want to use it to make this point.
00:41:03.460 Canadians want governments to invest to increase the quality of life that they get to enjoy.
00:41:08.080 We seem not to be able to agree on that basic tenet.
00:41:11.400 On this side of the House, we will put measures in place to support families, not advocate for cuts.
00:41:25.360 The Honourable Member for Berthier-Masquin-Angers.
00:41:32.480 I would like to quote the Deputy Prime Minister.
00:41:35.200 Canadians know when we're working for them, and they know when we're focusing on ourselves.
00:41:41.200 Mr Speaker, she's right. 71% of Quebecers believe that the GST vacation and the Prime
00:41:47.660 Minister's cheque are electroneering measures. Democracy loses out as a whole when so many
00:41:55.220 Quebecers believe that a Prime Minister is trying to buy them off. Will the Prime Minister finally
00:41:59.560 realize that there is a limit to putting Liberal priorities ahead of the common good.
00:42:08.760 The Honourable Minister for Innovation. Miss Speaker, we have no lessons to learn from the
00:42:12.760 Bloc Québécois. If the Bloc were truly here for Quebecers, they would vote for their best interests.
00:42:22.120 For months, the Bloc is contributing to the Conservative tactics of blocking Parliament
00:42:28.520 to stop bills that would make Quebec a better place. Instead of trying to squabble, can the
00:42:34.440 Bloc finally go beyond squabbles and actually work for Quebecers to allow this parliament to function?
00:42:40.600 Quebecers expect better from the Bloc and will always be here on this side of the House to 0.97
00:42:45.640 defend Quebecers. The Honourable Member for Berthier, Masquin-Angers.
00:42:52.360 The Deputy Prime Minister's resignation confirms that the Prime Minister has gone too far
00:42:56.280 in pushing for liberal measures at all costs. She has confirmed that the Prime Minister
00:43:05.300 is no longer legitimate. He cannot move forward with a full economic update without a finance
00:43:11.980 minister. She confirms that the Prime Minister cannot continue to govern without a new plebiscite
00:43:18.900 from the people. The Deputy Prime Minister has confirmed all of this. Will the Prime Minister
00:43:24.580 finally trigger an election. The Honourable Minister for Labour. Mr. Speaker, the Black
00:43:37.380 Caboclo simply rejects economic updates without having read it. That's why they voted against
00:43:47.580 the Canada child care benefit. That's why they voted against our dental plan for Canadians.
00:43:57.500 And many Quebecers are benefiting from these programs. They voted against the guaranteed
00:44:01.320 income supplement. They systematically vote against all assistance for Quebecers. So we
00:44:07.060 shouldn't be surprised that the Bloc once again is rejecting our measures that will help Canadians.
00:44:17.580 The Honourable Member for Regina Capel.
00:44:20.160 Carbon Tax Carney is the Prime Minister's official economic advisor,
00:44:23.820 and his plan was always to push out the Finance Minister and take her place.
00:44:27.880 Let's look at his advice so far.
00:44:29.680 He forced her to bring in the GST tax trick. 0.84
00:44:32.740 Carney also forced through insane inflationary spending,
00:44:35.960 smashing through that $40 billion guardrail.
00:44:38.780 Carney's economic plan is so bad, the Finance Minister resigned in protest
00:44:42.520 rather than humiliate herself into reading his homework.
00:44:46.260 Now, nobody knows who the Finance Minister is.
00:44:48.940 Mr. Speaker, enough is enough.
00:44:50.660 Why won't the Prime Minister do the only honourable thing left
00:44:52.980 and let Canadians decide for themselves in a carbon tax election?
00:45:00.680 The Honourable Leader of the Government in the House of Commons.
00:45:03.920 Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
00:45:05.240 Another day, another attack against Canadians from the Conservative Party of Canada.
00:45:10.640 Any time someone steps up who disagrees with their vision for Canada, what do they do?
00:45:17.500 Personal attacks, Mr. Speaker.
00:45:19.560 Mr. Speaker, Canadians deserve better than the slogans and personal attacks that we get from Conservative members of Parliament.
00:45:25.520 Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
00:45:26.620 The Honourable Member for Regina Capel.
00:45:29.040 The attacks on this government's economic record are coming from inside the Liberals' own Cabinet, Mr. Speaker.
00:45:34.800 And it looks more and more like Carbon Tax Carney's plan to push out the Prime Minister is working as well, too.
00:45:40.460 For carbon tax, Carney has always been profits over people.
00:45:43.640 Look at his record.
00:45:44.740 Since he became the top economic advisor to the PM,
00:45:47.440 he's moved his own company's headquarters to New York City.
00:45:50.600 He got caught unethically lobbying the UK government.
00:45:53.480 And his firm, Brookfield, is now looking for $10 billion in taxpayers' money
00:45:57.140 for a new investment fund, which would be managed by Brookfield, his own company.
00:46:02.560 Mr. Speaker, Canadians deserve better than this government in shambles.
00:46:05.420 Why not call a carbon tax election and let Canadians decide for themselves?
00:46:10.460 The Honourable Leader of the Government in the House of Commons.
00:46:15.460 Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
00:46:16.460 Mr. Speaker, this is the People's House, and in it you should be debating things that are pertinent to the administration of government.
00:46:25.460 But what we hear from the House Leader from the Conservative Party of Canada is a tax on Canadians, Mr. Speaker.
00:46:34.460 The person he's talking about is not a sitting member of Parliament, is not a Cabinet Minister.
00:46:40.460 someone that they are attacking simply because they do not share their vision of Canada.
00:46:45.800 Mr. Speaker, every single Canadian deserves better than what we hear from the opposition today.
00:46:50.420 Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
00:46:52.560 The Honourable Member for Stormont Dundas, South Glendary.
00:46:55.900 The Prime Minister has lost control hours before delivering a fiscal update.
00:46:59.300 The Finance Minister resigned, joining one-fifth of the Liberal caucus
00:47:02.260 in saying she doesn't have confidence in the Prime Minister either.
00:47:05.540 And there's only one person left keeping this Prime Minister in power,
00:47:08.940 and that's the leader of the NDP.
00:47:10.460 The full budget is scheduled to be tabled in 54 minutes, and we don't even know who the finance minister is.
00:47:16.140 The Liberals' own cabinet order on succession states if it's not her, it's the industry minister, but he says he doesn't want to.
00:47:22.620 So that means it's supposed to go to the disgraced member from Edmonton Centre.
00:47:25.640 The question is, will the other Randy be Canada's next finance minister, and how much is he investing in fraud?
00:47:40.460 Again, I've asked members to please not do indirectly what they can't do directly by
00:47:49.320 referring to a member by their first name.
00:47:54.220 The Honourable Leader of the Government in the House of Commons.
00:48:03.140 Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
00:48:05.340 Again, all we see from Conservative members of Parliament is personal attacks and mudslinging against Canadians.
00:48:13.340 Mr. Speaker, what we all need to be doing right now is standing united for our country,
00:48:20.340 making sure that we are protecting the Canadian economy, Canadian jobs, and making things a little bit easier for Canadians.
00:48:28.340 We look forward to presenting the Fall Economic Station later this afternoon.
00:48:32.340 Thank you Mr. Speaker.
00:48:35.340 the honorable member for Halifax West speaker our government takes the safety
00:48:41.900 of children seriously that's why we put forward a comprehensive plan to bring
00:48:47.460 Canada into the 21st century and change our online world making it safer for 1.00
00:48:53.120 kids and better for all the conservatives are blocking the plan and
00:48:57.340 they're standing in the way of a better future for our kids online parents want
00:49:01.960 the Online Harms Act. Experts want the Online Harms Act. Can the Minister of Justice explain
00:49:07.760 why C-63 must be passed to keep our kids safe? The Honourable Minister of Justice and Attorney
00:49:15.660 General. Mr. Speaker, last week I asked for unanimous consent to split the Online Harms Act
00:49:20.120 and advance the child protection measures as soon as possible. Every single party got on board
00:49:25.620 except for the Conservatives. Mr. Speaker, the Conservative Party said no to forcing the removal
00:49:31.500 of child sexual abuse material from the internet they said no to amanda todd's mother carol they
00:49:37.660 said no to retaya parsons mother and all the other parents who are begging us to act while 0.97
00:49:42.300 conservative inaction keeps child sexual abuse material online on this side of the house the
00:49:46.940 government will continue to fight for victims parents and kids to keep them safe
00:49:54.620 the honorable member for me the prime minister has completely lost the plot he's lost control
00:50:01.020 of immigration of our borders of public finances he's also lost the confidence of his of 20 or 40
00:50:12.140 members of his caucus he's lost the confidence and trust of his right hand woman the former
00:50:17.980 minister of finance the prime minister has lost everything will he finally let go
00:50:25.100 and trigger an election so that canadians can take back control of their future
00:50:31.020 The Honourable Minister for Immigration, for innovation rather. Mr Speaker, I am not a new
00:50:39.340 minister of anything, not immigration or anything else. We have no lessons to learn from the
00:50:43.520 Conservatives. Today what the government will table is an economic update that will be here
00:50:49.680 to invest in Canadians, invest in industry, invest in our workers. But Mr Speaker, what we've seen
00:50:55.580 today during question period is deplorable. Canadians who are watching us today expect
00:51:00.240 better from the official opposition. Now is a time to work together to defend our country,
00:51:07.360 to be ready for the next US administration. It's disappointing to see that the opposition
00:51:12.480 is playing political games on a day like today. The Honourable Member for Migantique Lirable,
00:51:17.860 Mr. Speaker, I can't quite believe what I just heard from the Minister for the, well,
00:51:23.340 not the Minister for Finance, he said no, but the Minister for Innovation. The Minister is
00:51:27.260 out of control. His former right-hand woman was very striking in her letter. We have to preserve
00:51:35.820 our fiscal capacity against the United States. It's pursuing a policy of aggressive economic
00:51:44.060 nationalism. We need to recognize the gravity of the moment. The situation is dire. Canadians need
00:51:51.800 to work. So what do we need? The Honourable Minister for Labour and Seniors. Mr Speaker,
00:52:06.600 it's not by shouting slogans that this member will claim to create unity in our country.
00:52:14.120 Our government has a serious plan to move forward.
00:52:16.440 we will through our full economic statement provide for posterity prosperity rather for
00:52:29.300 all Canadians and we will be here to protect Canadians against any potential threat the
00:52:33.840 honorable member for Peterborough Kawartha the Prime Minister is spiraling so bad and his obsession
00:52:41.580 for power is dangerous. It's actually dangerous and it is killing people every day. In Peterborough
00:52:50.360 and the Peterborough and area families are suffering the greatest rates of food insecurity
00:52:55.700 ever recorded. Do you know what food insecurity means Mr. Speaker? Starvation, hunger, children,
00:53:03.020 enough. This is as serious as it gets. The finance minister quit hours before she was supposed to do 0.72
00:53:08.600 this, and she doesn't have confidence in this Prime Minister. No one does. This man is a
00:53:13.920 disgrace, and we need an election now. 0.87
00:53:22.840 I ask the member, please, to be very judicious in referring to any member in this place.
00:53:32.820 Order. Order.
00:53:36.160 the Honourable Minister for Families, Children and Social Development.
00:53:42.640 Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
00:53:44.720 On this side of the House, we've made investments
00:53:47.500 to ensure that Canadians, including those in Peterborough-Kawartha,
00:53:52.580 have the support that they need,
00:53:54.900 whether that be through affordable childcare,
00:53:58.100 whether that be through an HST holiday, Mr. Speaker.
00:54:01.460 The people of Peterborough-Kawartha can rely on us,
00:54:05.620 can know that we on this side of the house will fight for them when their member of parliament
00:54:12.740 will do everything they can to oppose these supports the audible member for vancouver quadra
00:54:27.940 mr speaker your children in canada are just not safe online our government wants to join
00:54:33.540 the many countries that have now adopted online safety regulations yet the conservatives are
00:54:39.220 preventing our online harms act from moving forward in fact shockingly they're blocking
00:54:44.660 our efforts to remove child sex abuse material from the internet disgusting can the justice
00:54:51.860 minister please describe the importance of bill c63 to parents and children and explain why
00:54:58.020 Canadians so urgently need this law now? The Honourable Minister of Justice and Attorney General.
00:55:07.220 Mr. Speaker, the online harms bill is the product of four years of consultation. It is comprehensive
00:55:12.980 legislation that will remove child sex abuse material from the internet. By blocking that very
00:55:18.740 act, the Conservatives have made a clear choice that they will not prioritize the safety of our
00:55:23.700 kids they don't stand with parents amanda todd's mother carol said she's been waiting 12 years
00:55:29.460 for this type of change we need to pass this legislation to do right by carol and every
00:55:34.820 other parent of every other child who suffered abuse online the question for canadians for that
00:55:39.380 party is will they stand with us and keep kids safe the honorable member for north island powell
00:55:51.860 River. The marriage after 60 pension clause is dated, sexist, and unfair. All parties agree it
00:55:58.640 should be eliminated. But the Liberals have sat on their hands and let veterans and their spouses 1.00
00:56:03.560 down. The Liberals' former deputy leader said it best, Canadians can tell when the government is
00:56:10.360 focused on themselves and not on real people. And failing to remove this clause proves it.
00:56:16.740 When will the Liberals stop labeling women gold-diggers and get rid of this archaic, sexist clause?
00:56:25.740 The Honourable Minister for Veterans Affairs.
00:56:28.740 Thank you very much, Mr. Speaker. I'd like to thank my colleague for her question,
00:56:31.740 and also to take a moment to thank the members of the Canadian Armed Forces for their service.
00:56:35.740 Mr. Speaker, when a person serves in the military, we all recognize that their family serves with them.
00:56:41.740 Our government is sensitive to the situation of widowed spouses who have married veterans after the age of 60.
00:56:47.800 And our government is committed to improving and supporting members of their family as we move forward.
00:56:53.320 Thank you so much, Mr. Speaker.
00:56:57.540 The Honourable Member for Saanich Gulf Islands.
00:57:01.280 Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
00:57:02.280 And my last question in 2024.
00:57:04.860 I think of the IPCC report.
00:57:07.780 I'm sorry.
00:57:08.360 yes i mean colleagues really
00:57:15.640 i'd like to just hear the honorable member she's at the far end of the room it's difficult for me to 0.80
00:57:20.760 hear and i would like her to uh to please start again the honorable member thank you mr speaker
00:57:26.600 and my last question in 2024 i think of the ipcc six assessment report that if we do not globally
00:57:34.120 reduce emissions dramatically peak before and see dramatic reductions at the latest this is quote
00:57:41.800 at the latest before 2025 we will shoot way past the paris agreement targets way past two degrees 0.99
00:57:49.160 celsius and face climate disaster i think of the words in that film the age of stupid 0.98
00:57:55.320 what were we thinking to avoid the opportunity to save ourselves when we had the chance can the
00:58:01.960 Can the Honourable Minister give us any excuse, but perhaps this question period answers its own question.
00:58:09.760 The Honourable Minister for the Environment and Climate Change.
00:58:13.360 Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I thank the Honourable Colleague for her question.
00:58:16.760 I would like to remind her that everything we've done since we've been in power in 2015
00:58:21.360 has meant a 43% decline in emissions in Canada, Mr. Speaker.
00:58:26.360 Greenhouse gas emissions are at their lowest level in 25 years, 27 years in fact, Mr. Speaker.
00:58:32.600 Our plan is working. We're helping the economy. We're creating jobs and we're fighting pollution.
