Warren Steinley

Conservative on Budget 2025 Implementation Act, No. 2 2026-06-01

137 words · 7 sentences · 10 clauses

Replying to John-Paul Danko (Liberal). The question was off topic, so this reply is judged against the bill.

“Madam Speaker, it is absolutely shocking and very disappointing to hear the member opposite disparage our government’s $10-a-day child care program. This is such an important program for families and for women to be involved in the workforce. Hearing Conservatives talk about private options being preferable just shows how out of touch they are. The American president caused a global war against Iran, which is at risk of causing a global recession with the highest increase in oil prices ever. Will the member opposite criticize the American administration on the record?”
