“The Liberals say they protect private property, but they failed to defend private land ownership in court. I want them to change their orders and tell their lawyers to protect Canadians' property rights.”
“Mr. Speaker, the Liberals say that they defend private property rights, yet in the Cowichan case they chose not to argue extinguishment, which is how fee simple ownership has been historically defended. They weaken protections and then claim to defend them. Will the Liberals withdraw their directive and instruct their lawyers to defend private property rights to protect Canadians, yes or no?”
