Business of Supply

“The Liberals say cutting these taxes only helps the rich. I want my leader to explain how cutting them actually helps low-income people with the cost of living.”
Official Hansard

Mr. Speaker, I thank the leader for providing a very common-sense approach to deal with the cost of living crisis. The Liberals keep saying that one of the reasons they cannot axe this tax is that it will disproportionately benefit the rich, and that the people who have a low income will not benefit nearly as much from axing the taxes we are talking about in this motion today. I am wondering if the leader could explain to the Liberal Party how axing these taxes would actually benefit low-income earners and do well for them with respect to the cost of living.

“Gas costs too much right now. Getting rid of the clean fuel standard would help low-income people the most by making gas cheaper for them.”
Official Hansard

Mr. Speaker, I want to follow up on that question. It is a little absurd for the Liberals to come in here today and say that repealing the clean fuel standard would just benefit the rich and that the people at the bottom of the income scale would benefit the least from it. I remember not very long ago putting $20 into my gas tank and it used to get me through a week. This is when I was working prior to getting married, when I was dating my wife. Being able to put $20 in my vehicle meant a lot, because it was able to get me a long ways. Now $20 gets us nowhere. Being able to put $20 in their gas tank feels like a luxury for a lot of people right now. For a lot of people, that is a necessity, not a luxury. Would the member agree that people at the bottom end of the income scale actually stand to benefit the most, because when they only have $20 to put in their gas tank, it will actually get them somewhere?

Multiple Sclerosis Awareness Month

“May is Multiple Sclerosis Awareness Month. Canada has high rates of this disease, and many of its symptoms cannot be seen. I want the government to update the disability tax credit so it covers illnesses that come and go like this.”
Official Hansard

Mr. Speaker, May is MS Awareness Month, and Canada has some of the highest rates of MS in the world, with 12 people diagnosed every single day in Canada. This year focuses on the invisible symptoms of MS, which often lead to misunderstandings and barriers. For people who are living with MS, such as my wife Kyla, a lot of this has to do with severe fatigue. This is connected with sensory issues, chronic pain such as the MS hug, and mental or emotional symptoms. This all goes hand in hand with MS being unpredictable and inconsistent. As an episodic disability, it has a range of symptoms that fluctuate, with relapses and flare-ups. Despite these special challenges, the MS community continues to move forward. This month brings an important opportunity to raise awareness and show support for an important cause, with the May 50K fundraiser. Members can find more information on the MS Canada website. I also want to highlight MS Canada’s call for the disability tax credit to be modernized, including updates for the eligibility criteria to better reflect episodic illnesses. Not all disabilities are visible, and just because we cannot see them, they are no less worthy of our support.

Public Safety

“Crime is high, and police stations across Saskatchewan do not have enough officers. The Liberals promised to hire 1,000 new police officers, but they have not done it. Canadians cannot trust them.”
Official Hansard

Mr. Speaker, despite the illusions, the Prime Minister is just another Liberal with more taxes, more costs, more debt and more crime. Crime is a major problem everywhere. Mayors and citizens are raising the alarm because almost every RCMP detachment back home and across Saskatchewan is operating at a shortage. Last year, these Liberals promised to hire 1,000 new police officers, yet we see no plan and no new officers to fill the shortages. With the same old Liberals in power, how could Canadians trust them when all they do is break their promises?

Business of Supply

“The government has a 66-billion-dollar deficit. It has no extra money to invest in anything. It is just borrowing more money to put into savings. I want my colleague to explain why the government's bad finances make this impossible.”
Official Hansard

Mr. Speaker, I just want to make this really simple for the government. They are running a $66‑billion deficit this year. That means there is no extra wealth or surplus to put into a fund to be able to invest in anything. What they are doing is the equivalent of taking a credit card and then using the credit card to buy into, for example, a child’s registered education savings plan or something to that effect. It is taking on more debt to put money away. Could my colleague explain a little further why their terrible finance record is making this impossible to actually work properly?

Canadian Space Launch Act

“A space company lobbied the government 158 times right before it got 200 million dollars. Its stock price then jumped from five cents to over 60 cents. I think people with inside knowledge made money from this, and I want to know what my colleague thinks.”
Official Hansard

Mr. Speaker, building on the point that my colleague was making, over the last couple of years, Maritime Launch Services lobbied the government 158 times, and most of that was in 2025, right before it got the $200-million payout. If we look at some of the stock activity going on, it was valued at five cents and it jumped to over 60¢. If we look at the incredible value that people who knew what was happening would have gotten because of that, we can clearly see the conflicts and the shenanigans that are going on here behind the scenes. I am wondering what my colleague thinks about that.
