Lawton presses for tax relief on daily costs: cutting all federal fuel taxes, removing the federal sales tax from used cars through his Bill C-285, repealing the streaming tax and stopping Bill C-9, which he calls censorship. He argues less by rebutting positions than by mocking people, calling a minister “the secretary of state for combatting thought crime,” and by attributing hidden motives, asking of the Prime Minister’s buy-Canadian pledge, “What is up, his elbows or his stock portfolio?”Written by AI from their statements.

St. Thomas and District Chamber of Commerce Impact Awards

“I want to congratulate the local business owners who won awards in my community last Friday. Small businesses create jobs and help our area grow. I also want to thank the local chamber of commerce leaders visiting Ottawa today for supporting them.”
Official Hansard

Mr. Speaker, small businesses are the backbone of the Canadian economy, and that is truer than ever in St. Thomas, Elgin and London. Our small business owners are an incredible testament to the resilience, grit and innovativeness of our community. Some of our amazing entrepreneurs and professionals were recognized Friday at the St. Thomas and District Chamber of Commerce Impact Awards. I hope this House will join me in congratulating this year’s Impact Award winners: real estate agent Ainslee Tracey; the delicious Taco House Co.; Dr. Joseph Mai of Central Community Health Centre; Our Place Respite; Element5; Yarmouth Group; and the Business of the Year Award winner, Evelyn’s Sausage Kitchen. They and all the nominees represent the best of our community. They create jobs, opportunity and vitality for St. Thomas and Elgin. However, entrepreneurs back home do not walk alone. My office is a proud member of the St. Thomas and District Chamber of Commerce. In Ottawa today from the chamber are Maria Fiallos, Paul Jenkins and Christy Hunking. They are here representing our community. They are making sure small businesses can succeed, and I thank them for their efforts.
