MEMBER OF PARLIAMENT
Kayabaga reliably echoes the Liberal party line, filling time with positive but vague platitudes about government bills and programs. She makes a recurring habit of calling out Conservative opposition as supposedly being against Canada or unable to propose their own ideas. Kayabaga also frequently praises and promotes her London, Ontario riding and community.
Government Orders
“The opposition keeps claiming they aren't filibustering. But earlier one of their own members told a long story about an elephant during debate on Bill C-30. Bill C-30 would let us spend money faster to build housing people need. The opposition's stories are holding up housing funding they say they want. When will the opposition stop telling irrelevant stories and let us fund more housing construction?”
Government Orders
“You said we're not listening. I say we worked together fast to pass this bill. Which parts do you like and not like?”
“You say you don't like this bill. But we worked together on it. So tell everyone which parts you actually support and don't support.”
“I want to cheer for this bill. Our systems are so robust! Can you tell everyone more good things about this bill? And say how we worked together to go so fast.”
Government Orders
“I don't like that. That's not relevant. Stop talking about that.”
“I'm filling time with kind words about my city's spending and saying nothing anyone could pin down later.”
Government Orders
“I miss when the other team used to say things I agree with.”
“I want to praise our bill. Elections are very important. We are listening to experts who say we need this. We need to do more to protect Canadians' trust.”
“I'm going to compliment my opponent a little. Then I'm going to dismiss his question by saying he must be tired. That way I don't have to give a real answer.”
“You know I'm on that committee too. We already talked about this. The bill stops foreign money. It has reporting too. Experts said to do it this way. The bill is good enough.”
“I want my party's election bill to pass. It's good to keep changing the election rules. Some people say our elections are safe, but we must pass this bill to keep them safe. Passing this bill will keep bad people from tricking voters and putting fake names on ballots. We do not like that they do that. Trust us with more power to decide who can fund speech and when.”
“Madam Speaker, I would like to seek unanimous consent to share my time with the member for Winnipeg North.”
Statements by Members
“I attended a vigil for a Muslim family killed in a terrorist attack. I want people to remember them and reject Islamophobia.”
Government Orders
“I want to make the other party look bad. I'm going to say they're happy when Canadians struggle. That will make my party look good.”
Oral Questions
“The government is focused on building a strong economy while also reducing emissions. We will work with industries and provinces to ensure Canada remains competitive. I want to highlight some of the bills we will be debating in the coming days, including bills related to housing supply and criminal justice.”
Statements by Members
“I'm telling you about Prader-Willi Syndrome Awareness Month. I met some families. I want more support and money for this syndrome. My nephew has it. They want more research and help. They want equity. I'm thanking them.”
Government Orders
“I want the minister to say we must pass this budget for the economy. Mayors want us to spend fast. Conservatives are bad for debating at all.”
Government Orders
“I want the opposition to look bad for not supporting my preferred government program. I want you to back me up and say my program is important.”
Oral Questions
“I'm filling time with kind words about my friend who is leaving. I don't have a clear answer to your question about our environmental policy. I'm just going to talk about what's already planned for next week.”
Statements by Members
“I stand with the Ukrainian community in London, and I thank them for all their efforts to help those fleeing the war. Their humanitarian aid is making a real difference. Happy Vyshyvanka Day to all.”
