IN THEIR OWN WORDS

“Mr. Speaker, one of those really great laws is Bill S-211 , which requires companies selling or distributing goods in Canada to produce an annual report. The Liberals, contrary to the law, revised their directive and exempted a bunch of their corporate buddies from having to file the report. Now the U.S.”

“Mr. Speaker, the member mentioned executive bonuses, and I just want to point out that the company also gave some great bonuses to its executives, while it has built zero kilometres of rail line. I just thought I would put that on the record as well. I want to ask my hon.”

“Mr. Speaker, $200 million is what we are talking about with this launch pad. In my riding, a sawmill was recently shut down, with 190 jobs lost. That $200 million would have gone a long way there. The member for Taiaiako'n—Parkdale—High Park and I were debating this earlier, and he talked about how we needed a Canadian Cape Canaveral.”

“Mr. Speaker, I assure members that I only have one petition to present today. I rise to present a petition on behalf of Canadians who are concerned about human rights protections in India.”

“The petitioners are asking that the government ensure that any and all trade deals with India are premised on mandatory human rights provisions, that extremists are sanctioned and that the government promote a respectful human rights dialogue between Canada and India.”

“Since then, only minor tweaks have been made to that. Because of that, there are a host of companies that work hard on creating a product that is well serviced and lasts a long time. It does not ever really end up in the landfill, because they just keep rebuilding it and keep working it over.”

  1. “Mr. Speaker, yesterday, one of my good friends had his truck stolen in Edmonton. I know that crime is a problem across the country, and I thank the hon. member for bringing up crime. I am wondering if the member has any examples of crime that has happened in his constituency and can perhaps note the trend lines that have taken place over the last 10 years.”

  2. “Mr. Speaker, the hon. member talked about the self-inflicted damage to the United States. I was just wondering about the self-inflicted damage to Canada. When the Liberals took power, there were 14 energy projects on the books, waiting for approval. Today there are none of those. There are no energy projects ready to be built. The Prime Minister has talked about making Canada an energy superpower. I would just like some comments from the hon. member.”

  3. “Mr. Speaker, one thing the King talked about in the Speech from the Throne is getting Canada to be an energy superpower. I am just wondering how the member opposite sees that and if Alberta will play a key part in that role.”

  4. “Mr. Speaker, Canada was not always like this. The Liberals across the way want us to think that we just happened to get here, but it has been a decade of Liberal failures that have brought many of the things that this member has talked about. I am just wondering if the hon. member has any more comments he would like to add to that effect.”

  5. “Mr. Speaker, throughout the election the Liberals took many of our good ideas, and I am excited to see that. I am excited to see the GST coming off for new homebuyers. I am just wondering when they are going to announce all the pipeline projects to make us an energy superpower.”
