“Mr. Speaker, the Liberal Prime Minister has said affordability is the best that it has been in decades, even though some Canadians are crowdfunding their way through this cost of living crisis. He is so out of touch. The costly Liberal Prime Minister is the only G20 leader to drag his nation into a recession.”
“Mr. Speaker, targets may not matter to that Liberal minister, but disabled Canadians rely on those supports and they certainly deserve better. Large areas of Gros Morne National Park are covered in dry timber and at risk of wildfire because of the spruce budworm outbreak.”
“They have exhausted their savings, maxed out their credit cards and refinanced their homes just to keep up with food inflation, rising rents and soaring mortgage payments. Clearly, the plan is not working.”
“At a critical time when we need more supply and builders are asking for less government, the Liberals are focusing on building a new bureaucracy that is simply an expensive exercise in rebranding.”
“Do not take it from me. A witness from the Ontario Home Builders' Association testified, “As the industry association representing home builders...we know that builders are the experts and the ones who are best suited to construct the homes we need, not the government” and “the path forward is not for government to step into the role of t…”

“Will the Prime Minister commit to reversing the anti-energy Liberal laws, excessive red tape regulation and high taxes that are crushing the dreams of young people in Newfoundland and Labrador?”
“Mr. Speaker, it is an honour to rise as the first Conservative woman to ever serve the Province of Newfoundland and Labrador in the House of Commons. I was born and raised, laid roots and built a career in Newfoundland and Labrador. Unfortunately, for young people today, building a life in Newfoundland and Labrador is becoming a distant dream. Too many are forced to pack their bags and head elsewhere across Canada. The blame is with the federal government, for implementing policies that block investment and kill major projects that create jobs young people could build a life on. I have combed over the speech and cannot seem to find any firm commitment for young Newfoundlanders who want to build their lives and stay in the province.”
