goes over a guardrail they don't stop they go right over into the abyss and the problem is so bad that even Liberals are commenting like this I think we do need to show fiscal restraint said one of

liberal labor Minister has intervened in the negotiation process and ordered the cup W members back to work similar to what they have done in the past with the conservatives not respecting the bargaining process led to this in the very first place no one makes the decision to go on strike lightly especially as a holidays approach this was a result of Decades of disrespect and disregard postal workers are crucial for our communities often having to work late into the night they do more for the mail delivery they keep us connected and our streets safe their absence during the strike has been deeply felt by all proving their value for our present and our future while Canada Post CEO Doug Edinger makes half a million dollars per year in Executives easily over six figures our

fact is they failed the British failed the Acadian people stand proud and Tall on their ancestral lands and everywhere else including Quebec where my own ancestors found Refuge thank you speaker for Colona Lake Country the Liberals are set to crash through their so-called 40 billion deficit guardrail which will add to Canada's already sky high debt incredibly this feminist prime minister is going to blame this on the Finance Minister setting up her firing to replace her with conflict of interest carbon tax Carney the Finance Minister admitted that deficits cause inflation and promised she would cap the deficit at 40 billion and not go a penny over despite this the Prime Minister came along and is forcing her into spending more the feminist prime minister has been working overtime behind the scenes to fire Canada's first female Finance Minister and bring in his guy carbon tax Carney conflict of interest Carney this is an insult especially when he stated just a few days ago that quote I am always and will be a proud feminist Canadians deserve better than that and this incompetent prime minister is forcing the Finance Minister into blowing through an already crazy 40 billion [Applause] deficit The Honorable member for pier Mr Speaker very good at coming up with slogans on cutting taxes unfortunately he is not very good at acting on what he says you would think that the conservative caucus would be the first to support a GST tax credit a tax credit that puts real money back into the pockets of Canadians but they didn't their leader whipped them into voting against a tax credit for Canadians Canadians deserve a leader that backs their words with actions not empty rhetoric and performative outrage this government our liberal government is delivering real affordability measures for families while the conservatives are busy uh voting against solutions for Canadians we liberals have cut taxes where it matters whether for the middle class or small business while the conservatives continue cutting their credibility oral questions KES The Honorable member for leads Grenville Thousand Islands and real Lakes the liberal prime minister has lost control of spending and he's lost control of his own cabinet the outgoing Finance Minister promised that a massive $40 billion deficit would be her fiscal guardrail but it looks like the Prime Minister and the incoming Finance Minister carbon tax carne are pushing her through the guard rail and over the fiscal cliff with the rest of Canadian so will the Prime Minister stand up today and admit that he's having his outgoing Finance Minister take the fall so that he can replace her with carbon tax Carney The Honorable parliamentary secretary they are trying to distract from their voting record Mr Speaker in this house a Commons when this government put forward legislation affirmed last night by the senate in fact to cut G for families looking to buy kids clothes diapers car seats families that want to go out to a restaurant someone who wants to buy beer or cider they're against that Mr Speaker lots of slogans when it comes to cutting taxes but that's all they have Mr Speaker empty slogans when it comes down to it we put a tax cut forward and they voted against it right The Honorable member for leads Grandville Thousand Islands re Lakes a tiny two-month tax trick is is not going to help the more than 2 million Canadians lined up at food banks every month or pennies off of Pepsi for Canadians who are going to pay $800 more for groceries in 2025 so this prime minister is forcing his outgoing finance minister to take the fall for the effects of his inflationary spending that's pushing his 40 billion deficit guard rail uh right to past and over the cliff so will the Prime Minister admit that it is in fact his inflationary spending that's the cause of this massive death The Honorable parliamentary secretary to minister housing the lowest debt and deficit in the G7 Mr Speaker a fifth consecutive interest rate rate uh decline what is that that is good news Mr Speaker for business owners looking to expand it's good news for mortgage holders looking to renew families looking to buy home Mr Speaker and there's many other examples they want to distract from their record in fact think about the Harper years the worst rate of economic growth had Steven Harper going back to RB Bennett in the 1930s Mr Speaker they're not serious about these things The Honorable member for leads Grandville Thousand Islands read Lakes good news he's talking about good news like Canadians have never had it so good the highest the highest household debt because Canadians can't afford to pay their mortgages they can't afford to feed themselves they can't afford to heat their homes or put gas in their cars after N9 years of this NDP liberal prime minister who said that the budget would balance itself that he doesn't think about monetary policy and it should be the bankers that worry about the economy even his caucus is calling for some fiscal sanity after N9 years of his economic vandalism when the death deficit smashes through $40 billion will at least he allow his caucus to have a free The Honorable Parliament secretary he talks about people at food banks Mr Speaker we're not insensitive to that Canadians have had a hard time what has this government done we've supported them through the pandemic we continue to show support Mr Speaker they want to cut their pensions they want to cut employment insurance we have a school food program in fact that is supporting no less than 400,000 kids in four different provinces they voted against that too Mr Speaker the Canada child benefit today par will see a direct deposit put into their account guess what they're also against that Mr Speaker they don't care yes The Honorable member for me deficit that's a very short three syllable word it's easy to pronounce and yet not only are the Liberals incapable of saying it they won't even talk about it because they've lost control Mr Speaker the Minister of Finance said that she had put in place a guard rail so that the deficit would not go Bey beond 40 billion so why is the prime minister being advised by Mark Carney to why is he choosing to force her to blow through her 40 her $40 billion guard rail and break her promise The Honorable member thank you Mr Speaker tomorrow Canadians and quebecers will have a GST holiday that's that is great news and what did the conservatives say they said that they had to cut taxes but they sat down and tomorrow morning we took action we are going to give a GST holiday to Canadians uh on diapers on restaurants Mr Speaker Canadians will be able to save money because of us the conservatives don't get it the honorable member for Meg I I didn't hear him mention the word deficit Mr Speaker I said deficit it's not very easy to it's not hard to understand why did the Prime Minister Force the first female Minister of Finance to blow who threw her guard rail taking with her all Canadians over the fiscal cliff why he and his friend carbon tax Carney watched them fall that is such H hypocrisy from a prime minister who said this week well I want you to know that I am and always will be a feminist I'm going to try again does the Prime Minister have the courage to say the word deficit and why did he Force his Minister of Finance to break her promise The Honorable parliamentary secretary AR Mr Speaker I saw the conservatives economic statement and it's blank they have nothing to say about the economy early Tom early tomorrow morning we're going to give a GST GST holiday to Canadians and that's good news they could have stood up and supported us on that and what did they do they stayed SE seated so they are going to have to tell their constituents why they didn't support this holiday and that is a shameful Mr Speaker The Honorable member for man quag once again yesterday the Senators delayed a crucial vote on C2 282 on uh Supply management they have been uh engaging in sh Shenanigans for the past 18 months in instead of adopting this one section Bill instead of respecting the will of all parties the unelected Senators are obstructing and filibustering and uh oh irony of ironies they took four hours of paid breaks yesterday does the will the government denounce this sad spectacle The Honorable parliamentary secretary for the minister of Agriculture Mr Speaker I completely agree with a member across the way it is shameful what the conservatives are doing in this house because some 50% of them voted against Bill s282 C 282 and on this side of the host we have supported that bill and so I encourage the member to all members to work on this to get the bill to pass the honorable member of Herman qua I am calling on all Party leaders every single one of them voted to protect Supply Management in trade agreements so today they now have the responsibility to call on Senators to respect the will of elected officials they have to tell the unelected Senators that they're not paid to take breaks that they have work to do even though it is very Superfluous the Lords of the Senate will be sitting again next week will all the leaders especially the Prime Minister call on them to pass bill c282 before the holidays secretary The Honorable parliamentary secretary thank you Mr Speaker for p the past few months I have heard the Prime Minister say on a number of occasions to was encouraging this the other place to adopt c282 but I didn't hear the same thing from the leader of the conservative party I know it's rough on that side of the house half of them voted against Supply management but everyone on this side of the house voted in favor and we expect that the other place respect the wish wishes of the House of Commons New Westminster bernabe the Parliamentary budgetary officer revealed yesterday that over 2 million Canadians don't have access to adequate or affordable housing uh no surpris average rents now in the lower mainland of British Columbia for one-bedroom or over $2,500 a month staggering the conser Liberals have simply been too weak to take on the corporate greed that is fueling housing prices and and conservatives of course uh they they will just make uh their corporate landlord buddies and developer buddies richer but when will this government take on the corporate greed that is fueling housing prices and so that all Canadians can a roof over their head here here The Honorable parliamentary secretary to the Minister of Housing in fact what the Parliamentary budget officer's report revealed Mr Speaker is that this federal government for the first time in decades is back in housing making it a serious priority reversing Decades of cuts of previous governments in particular and all with all due respect to conservative governments Mr Speaker the reality is is that we have more work to do but we've seen through vital programs that would be cut by that party like the reaching home program 87,000 people lifted off the street and almost 150,000 people were going to be homeless not homeless because of our strategy on that we'll continue great on The Honorable member for Tim James Bay temperatures are plunging in Northern Canada and the ongoing housing crisis on Northern reserves is putting families and children at serious risk Carol Anne Valentine lives in a moldy trailer with three children and Pelican narrow Saskatchewan them for years she's pleaded just for a simple home to keep her children safe and warm but to the Liberals she's just another name on an Ever growing backlog of heartbreak and homelessness in the north a crisis they continue to ignore so what simple question why is this government refusing to help this family why are they refusing to step up and deal with this crisis The Honorable Minister Northern Affairs thank you Mr Speaker we've been working since 2015 on creating Partnerships with provinces with territories with indigenous leaders to get more houses built all over the north Mr Speaker uh several years ago we've invested we invested $4 billion in distinctions based housing to get Construction done last year there's another $4 billion for an urban rural Northern housing Reserve we're going in the right direction and there's still lots of work to do The Honorable member for Calgary Forest Lawn carbon tax Carney's Canadian comeback fueled a fiscal Feud for this Furious Finance Minister the Prime Minister forced the the Finance Minister to crashed through the $40 billion deficit guardal promise the PBO says it'll be at least over $6 billion now that the prime minister is done using her he'll dump her for carbon tax Carney will the Prime Minister confirm once he fires his Finance Minister the deficit won't be a penny over $46 billion good question The Honorable parliamentary secretary to the minister of Public Safety thank you Mr Speaker while that member practices on things that rhyme with FWS our minister actually renegotiated NAFTA with trump our Minister introduced supports during a global pandemic to keep businesses and people going our Minister tomorrow will see a GST tax breaks for Canadians so while conservatives practice their Rhymes we're delivering real supports for Canadians The Honorable member for calary Forest line their minister is the reason why Canada's economy is crapping out and just over just to take dimes off of Doritos they'll crash the deficit guard rail taking Canada's finances off a cliff the Prime Minister forced the Finance Minister to implement it the PBO confirmed that they're already $6 billion past that fiscal guard rail Canadians want to know how bad carbon tax Carney and the Prime Minister will smash to the $40 billion deficit guardrail how bad is it what is the deficit number what is it parli secretary Mr Speaker it's pretty clear that when the conservatives have no real argument or debate they just insult people because on this side of the house our finance minister has a record of helping people in some of the hardest times that this country has ever face a global pandemic Global inflation we saw another interest rate cut just this week and tomorrow we will see more tax breaks for Canadians something conservatives promis they do but weren't able to so what is it Mr Speaker is it the fact that the our plan we're actually implementing or they can't stand it's a woman doing it the honorable member for Northumberland [Applause] Peter order order we made we made it into 12 12 questions before we really got too much noise here not bad not bad this is aord I'm sure this must be a must be a record The Honorable member of Northland Peterboro South thank you Mr Speaker consensus among Economist experts and even the Parliamentary budget officers this government has exceeded all of its fiscal anchors the only question is how badly have they failed can the government confirm whether the Minister of Finance has gone way past the guard rails or whether they've gone completely off the cliff with a $46 billion deficit good question The Honorable parliamentary secretary Minister housing the members should expand beyond the Fraser Institute Mr Speaker and look to for example what the international monetary fund has said what other lead Financial authorities have said in the business press and elsewhere the Parliamentary budget officer as well that Canada has a very sustainable fiscal situation the lowest debt in the G7 the lowest deficit in the G7 a AAA credit rating Mr Speaker and what do we see on the conservative side a plan to make Cuts including a planed to cut $10 million for housing in Peterboro his community Mr Speaker what do you have to say that for north petero south well let's return to the facts here the current and former governor of Bank of Canada Tiff Macklin and Steve Pelos agree the Canadian economy is in big trouble the Phantom Finance Minister's economic plan is failing Canadians the sad part is these liberals don't even know how badly so can someone go behind the curtain on the other side and simply ask carbon tax Carney what the deficit is The Honorable Parliament Secretary of the Minister of Housing Mr Speaker I know this member he's an honorable member and I know that he cares about his community a few weeks ago I spoke with peterborough's mayor mayor Jeff Le a good man someone who cares about his community and is doing a great job in that in that City I told him the about the government's plan to invest over $10 million through the housing accelerator fund to build more housing the conservatives want to cut that investment among others will he joined the other conservative MPS who are advocating for the accelerator fund to ensure that more homes get built I hope that he does Mr Speaker the mayor is asking here The Honorable member for halberton corth Lakes Brock speaker the Prime Minister has lost control of his spending and his cabinets the PBO says that this year's budget deficit could be as high as $46 billion smashing the $40 billion guardrail promised by the Finance Minister and like so many ministers before her this Finance Minister's time might be limited simply for standing up to the Prime Minister and his radical agenda will the Prime Minister confirm that he is ignoring his prime minister's $40 billion guardrail promise and tell us if the deficit will exceed 46 billion here The Honorable parliamentary secretary wrote Today Mr Speaker that conservatives have launched personal attacks on the Finance Minister who's responsible for among other things the Canada child benefit who's respons responsible for among other things ensuring that child care is a priority in this country moving towards $10 a day what has that done in this country for its economy among other things 110,000 women have been able to re-enter the workforce because child care has now moved to an affordable level they want to cancel that Mr Speaker they say all these things about families in the end they don't care about families Mr The Honorable member for halberton cor Lakes Brock speaker from that answer it's clear that the Liberals have abandoned all hope of keeping their $40 billion guardrail promise that was made to Canadians while the UN unelect unelected unaccountable and Phantom Finance Minister carbon tax Carney pulls the strings from the Shadows the Liberals are following their prime minister and the economy of Canada right off the fiscal cliff already interest charges on our debt will cost taxpayers more than the FED send to the provinces in healthcare so will the Prime Minister confirm that the deficit will not be over 46 billion The Honorable parliamentary secretary to the government house leader Mr Speaker you know there's some really good news last night the Senate of Canada passed a legislation that's going to give a GST tax break starting tomorrow for all Canadians in all regions of the country M Mr Speaker that is actually good news that is something in which the conservatives campaigned on but oops they actually voted

instead Mr Mr Speaker lion employees deserve better than that from the federal government there are three days left to save this Quebec Flagship of green transport investors the city's concerned the government of Quebec everyone is fighting to save lion and but in the meantime there's just Ottawa that is the sleep of the switch the federal government must facilitate the awarding of the full amounts of the subsidies that is its role and it has to do it now not when there won't be any more of Flagship will they step up The Honorable parliamentary secretary Mr Speaker through our zero emission public transit fund the government is helping public transit manufacturers to serve quebecers and Canadians this is a good way to tell School Bus operators that uh they will be available and uh we know that we will continue to work we want to sove the save these jobs thank you The Honorable member for Calgary Heritage 40 billion $40 billion was a guardrail set by this liberal Finance Minister listen to this not an unlimited pot need to show fiscal restraint if we have $4 billion guard rail stay in there Mr Speaker that's not stepen Harper that's liberal members of parliament if the deficit is over the $40 billion guard rail will the Prime Minister allow free vote for his NDP liberals The Honorable parliamentary secretary Minister of Housing and communities the members officite are very fond of quoting from the Parliamentary budget officer Mr Speaker as is their right well they can they can go one step further and actually look what he recently said on the country's finances we have a more than sustainable fiscal situation but if it was up to the conservatives that would reverse we know what the conservative record is when it comes to running up deficits but more importantly Mr Speaker to the point that's been raised because they talk about families what programs would they cut they talk about this idea of fixing the budget for them that means cutting and they would cut Dental Care they would cut pharmacare they would cut support for families across the board and pensions Mr Speaker they're not serious That's right The Honorable member for Calgary Heritage Mr Speaker we're talking about what could be more than 40 billion a carbon taxing Co loving Carney a finance minister on the run a prime minister not into monetary policy they hike taxes they fuel inflation they crash through the fiscal guard rails and off the cliff this government is a chaotic clown show which one of them will call a carbon tax election just uh just just to make sure everybody's a you know just watch the words that they use uh The Honorable parliamentary secretary thank you Mr Speaker once again we see the conservatives dive into insults because they actually have no plan for the economy and I think they just can't stand the fact that we have a finance minister who was able to renegotiate NAFTA with the previous Trump Administration we were able to see supports being delivered to businesses and Canadians who the worst global pandemic and Mr Speaker we continue to see interest rates drop and tomorrow we see a tax break for all Canadians so while they want to know about a free vote I'm wondering if they'll have a free question The Honorable member for Mr Speaker this prime minister has lost control of his finances and of his cabinet this spot is about the astronomical deficit because the prime minister is forcing his finance minister to increase the de deficit by $6 billion for electioneering purposes she has he forced her to not keep her promise to

say that uh you know our Deputy Prime Minister has given us a GST tax break that the conservatives voted against I would urge my colleagues across the way to meet with their constituents and tell them that they voted against against this tax relief measure for those people who are in need thank you The Honorable member for n lady Smith Mr Speaker postal workers have been left without a fair deal for too long they deserve safe working conditions to retire with dignity and livable wages now small businesses and everyday people are being hit hard all because the Liberals refuse to do right by workers and the conservatives well they don't care about workers they protect CEOs like Canada posts Doug Edinger patting his pockets while workers and communities struggle why is the minister refusing to protect postal workers rights to a fair deal here here honorable minister of Labor of course uh Mr Speaker we did uh uh respect and do respect workers rights to negotiate a Collective Agreement that's why the government has proposed and I have proposed A Way Forward where we can avoid these postal workers being on picket lines for an Untold an unknown amount of time take a pause have uh an independent respected arbitrator look at the situation propose a way forward and indeed ensure the sustainability for Canada Post we will always be there for postal workers and other workers Mr Speaker and we need to make sure that Canadians are well served in the process The Honorable member for Courtney Al Bernie Mr Speaker Port Alber is short 12200 homes it's nearly impossible to find an affordable place to live rents doubled under the conservatives and then again under the Liberals liberals disappointment and conservative Cuts mean that non-market housing in Canada has dropped to 3.5% of our housing stock other countries are doing much better like France at 177% Netherlands 34% in Denmark at 21% safe secure and affordable housing saves lives when will the liberal conservative Coalition stop caving to Rich investors and rapidly start building up Canada's non-market housing Supply here The Honorable parliamentary secretary to the Minister of Housing the member is right to talk about non-market housing we do need more non-market housing options in this country Mr Speaker and what have we seen over the past few years an enormous increase in exactly that 87,000 people who were on the street are now living in non-market housing Mr Speaker 100 close to 150,000 people who were going to be homeless have been housed as a result of the Investments that this government has made we agree with the NDP that we need to do more of course but Mr Speaker where we part company with the NDP is on the issue of market-based housing we want to see more rental apartments for Middle income and lower income Canadians the NDP doesn't have a plan on that that's right the honorable member for St John's East Mr Speaker our government announced new measures to put more money back in the pockets of Canadians to help them afford the things they need and save for the things they want unfortunately some on the other side of the house are spreading misinformation about our tax cut like the Member of Parliament for Central ok nin sine and NOA who described it as sending people pennies could the minister please educate the member opposite and want a tax break means for Canadians this holiday season uh The Honorable parliamentary secretary to the Minister of Housing yeah thank you Mr Speaker first of all let me commend the member who comes from a proud family that built up a successful small business she understands what this tax cut means for small business owners but also for Canadians want to see a savings especially during the holidays one that begins this Saturday and extends into February what do we see with the conservatives sloganeering their leader isn't too worried he has a $2 million pension Mr Speaker he's not worried at all conservatives talk about tax cuts when it comes down to it they're not in favor of that they don't care that's right the honorable member for Colonial a country the Finance Minister admitted that deficits cause inflation she promised that she would cap candidate deficit at an already crazy $40 billion and wouldn't go a penny over now the prime minister is pressuring her to spend even more by pushing through her own guardrail and making her fall off a fiscal cliff is the prime minister going to pressure this female finance minister to read conflict of interest carbon tax Carney's fiscal update and blame her for breaking the 40 billion deficit promise good question The Honorable parliamentary secretary again Mr Speaker I repeat repeat the lowest debt and deficit in the G7 the PBO coming out and affirming that we have a very fiscally sustainable situation what would the conservatives do they would make cuts and in fact the member with all due respect to her ought to go and listen to what the mayor of kona recently said the conservatives are proposing cuts for housing that would mean less money for Colona in fact he's worried that because of those prospective cuts that Colona would have to increase property taxes and go into the reserves the conservative plan is a plan to increase property taxes Mr speak The Honorable member of colon Lake Country well Mr Speaker we've seen the feminist prime minister do this before pushing strong women out of cabinet yet the prime minister's hypocrisy is on display as he lectures about him being a proud feminist the globa mail reported on the prime minister's aggressive recruitment of conflict of interest carbon tax Carney as tensions increase with the current Finance Minister so will the feminist prime minister Park the hypocrisy and admit his inflationary spending is forcing the Finance Minister to break her 40 billion deficit promise The Honorable Minister Mr Speaker we hear the word feminist being thrown around this place in the most disrespectful way and it is Rich that the conservative party claims to care about women maybe they should stand up to their own leader who contributes to the misogyny that increases hate to towards women by embedding misogynistic hashtags into his YouTube videos we won't take any lessons from the party across the honorable member for Lakeland the Finance Minister actually admits deficits cause inflation she promised a cap of an already whacko $40 billion but the Prime Minister bullied to crash her through that so-called guard rail with billions more he sets her up to take the fall and Canadians will pay the price now like a long line of women the Prime Minister kicks her to the curb for his conflict of interest carbon tax crony Carney is the prime minister really going to bully his female finance minister to read carbon tax Carney's fiscal update and then blame her for breaking the 40 billion dollar deficit promise The Honorable parliamentary secretary to the ministry of Public Safety Mr Speaker this is a minister who stood up to Putin who renegotiated trade deals with the US who worked and help Canadians get through a global Health pandemic Mr Speaker she doesn't get bullied but it seems that perhaps the conservative caucus is projecting the fact that if they don't read the conservative leaders lines if they don't rhyme enough they don't get questioned time so while we are working and focused on providing tax relief to Canadians conservatives are making sure they rack up those gold stars The Honorable member for Lakeland look we all know the Prime Minister says women experience him differently but it's his pattern to Elbow them to the side and it's sad to see a Woman spinning for him he's incompetent unaccountable and Bullies subordinate women blames and shames them then replaces them with his buddies he's aggressively recruited carbon tax Carney yet calls himself a proud feminist Canadians can't afford this will this complete weak stop all the hypocrisy and admit his inflationary spending forces the Finance Minister to break her $40 billion deficit promise The Honorable Minister if the conservatives Mr Speaker want to talk about feminism here's some policies that our government has done to support women across this country policies like $10 a day child care that has thousands of women back in the workforce because they can now do so the national action plan to end gender-based violence that is helping women get true freedom from those that would would hurt them and harm them true Freedom autonomy over our bodies Mr Speaker the conservatives have opposed every single measure we have put forward to help women in this country and they continue to do so care the honor The Honorable member fortb Tang Mr Speaker I would like to start by expressing my solidarity to the workers at Canada Post I hope that an agreement will be quickly negotiated but this proves that we very much need a 10day passport collection service in at btbt mang in Northern Quebec and on the North Coast in urgent situations people in my area have only one option within Quebec which is to drive for six hours or more in the dead of winter to Gator Montreal but at the service cidate office in Wanda they have all the equipment that they need to offer the service and they've had it since September 2023 it's almost the holidays will the minister finally show some good faith and offer the service in Secretary the The Honorable parliamentary secretary I'd like to thank my colleague across the way for wanting to improve Service Canada Service Canada is currently working with ircc in order to explore all possible ways to expand the current Services when they determine a location it's based on various criteria like access the demand and demographic factors we're always seeking to improve things and only on Tuesday we have a meeting on that subject with the minister The Honorable member well the minister dared to formally respond to me that 96% of Canadians are able to access the 10day passport service within a half hour of their homes but in my area people need to drive more than 6 hours two or three days plus fees in the dead of winter people are having to drive for hours over very long distances it's ridiculous we have heard that the equipment has been there for 15 months we just need to train the staff when will the Liberals stop keeping our citizens waiting like this The Honorable parliamentary secretary thank you Mr Speaker well we know that more than 98% of people are able to access these services but in his writing 92% of passports are deliverable within 20 days in his writing now I would also invite people to also plan to plan for their trips and to ask for their passports more than 20 days in advance in order to be able to meet their needs and we're continuing to work with service candidate ircc and service centers to improve service B River thank you things are getting real bad behind closed doors for the languishing liberal government the prime minister is once again looking for someone to take the fall for his fiscal Fiasco this time the Minister of Finance has been targeted for removal so carbon tax Carney can come out from behind the shadows and replace her their 40 billion so-called deficit guard rail looks like it's about to be smashed through sending our economy off the cliff will the Prime Minister keep his promise confirm the deficit will not be over 40 billion The Honorable parliamentary secretary personal attacks today Mr Speaker under this minister of health and under this Minister of Finance we've seen a national Dental Care Program put in place 3 million plus Canadians have signed on over a million have received care Mr Speaker many are seniors in fact seniors were the first to be offered care are the conservatives saying that as part of this big bold idea more of a slogan Mr Speaker in fact to fix the budget they'd get rid of dental care it's exactly what they would do Mr Speaker when it comes down to it as I've said throughout today they do not care they care about slogans but they don't care about Canadians the member for B River the Prime Minister lost control of his caucus just like he lost control of our economy and their benches are clearing of people left to blame but it's not stopping the liberal government from smashing through their own stated deficit guardrail their fiscal anchor whatever they want to call it the guard rail is about to be smashed Canada's economy is careening off the cliff and sinking fast so will the Prime Minister please just stop drowning Us in debt confirm the next week's deficit and not won't shoot over $40 billion in capsized Canada The Honorable parliamentary Secretary of the minister of export development thank you Mr Speaker Mr Speaker children's clothes diapers car seats board games prepared food snacks video games children toys will all cost 133% less tomorrow in Ontario thanks to our GST tax break that our liberal government brought forward Miss well the conservative sat down and voted no against this tax savings for Canadian families we understand that this time of year is hard on families we want to continue to be there to support them if you're planning on taking your family out for dinner that's 13% Less in Ontario that's what we'll continue to do we'll continue supporting families in Ontario so starting tomorrow there'll be a GST tax break for All Families across Canada The Honorable member for canora Mr Speaker the Prime Minister has lost control of spending and even his own cabinet he is pushing his finance minister to smash through her $40 billion deficit guardrail all the while reports indicate he is planning to fire her and replace her with carbon tax curreny now Mr Speaker $40 billion would already be a massively irresponsible deficit but the PBO says it could even go as high as 46 billion so Mr Speaker will the Prime Minister confirmed today that the deficit will not be a penny over $46 billion great question The Honorable minister of Labor and seniors Mr Speaker I think we sit in this place and we hear conservatives ask the same question written by their leader over and over and over again that answer that question has been uh asked and answered dozens of times in this house so I have a question for my conservative friends back they seem very concerned about deficits can they offer one thing one where are they going to start cutting Mr Speaker be specific [Applause] [Music] The Honorable member for Von Woodbridge Mr Speaker in 2022 one in4 Canadians skipped a visit to the dentist because of cost but thanks to our government's Canadian dental care plan over 1.2 million Canadians have now received oral health care applications for the Canadian dental care plan launched one year ago and today more than 3 million Canadians now have dental coverage Mr Speaker can the minister of Health share how the cdcp is making life more affordable and helping Canadians access essential Dental Care The Honorable minister of Health well I thank the member for his question he's been such a uh an advocate and a proponent of making sure everybody gets oral health and could you imagine uh just a year ago when we started taking applications on the Canada dental care plan that in that year now 3 million Canadians are covered it means virtually every senior who is uh eligible is covered in is able to get care that is not just a matter of social justice of somebody having a smile they're proud of or finally being able to get a pair of dentures in their mouth it is also a matter of prevention when we make sure that people get care they don't get sick we save money and we have a healthier Society The Honorable member for Caribou Prince George they launched dental care just about the same time that they take the GST off chips cookies and candies Bravo liberal back venters have supported this prime minister through through every Scandal and every failed policy their deficit must be pretty bad if they're finally willing to remove the gag and start speaking out will the prime minister at least listen to his own MPS and allow a free vote The Honorable minister of Health well let's talk about health let's talk about what they're going to cut they would take away diabetes medications for patients they would take away contraception for women they would take away oral Health Care for Seniors and what's going to happen let's talk about the implications Canada has the second longest Health Span in the G7 longer than Italy longer than France longer than the United Kingdom six years longer than the United States what they would do with these Cuts is Drive illness which will drive cost and is just plain dumb if you want to make sure that we get health right it also is at the core of a strong economy it's at the core of reducing costs it's time they woke up and stood up for healthcare in this country The Honorable member for sou Shore St Margaret the Al role of parliament is that no money shall be spent without the consent of parliament it's right in the Constitution you might want to take a look it's been eight months since the year end and the Liberals still haven't tabled the deficit number the Liberals are two months late in tabling the Public Accounts Bay Street not Parliament learned yesterday that the government has sold $3 billion of Air Canada shares they are blocking Parliament from doing its work they must have blown by their maximum $40 billion deficit promise Mass massively come clean what's the deficit number The Honorable parliamentary secretary to the ministry of Housing and communities the member knows very well Mr Speaker that during the pandemic this government provided loan support and other support for our Canada to ensure its long-term viability part of that was buying shares in the company it was never though the intention of the government of Canada to hold on to those shares into the long term it made a sale yesterday and it was a responsible one again and the the question has been asked the minister of Health Put It Forward the minister of Labor Put It Forward what would they cut what would they cut to ensure that the budget as they say is fixed they cut Dental Care Child Care pharmacare supports they don't care Mr Speaker The Honorable Member First out Shore St Margaret's today the minister of Labor stepped into the Canada Post strike the workers union said and I quote it denounces in the strongest terms this assault on our constitutionally protected rights even the NDP leader said the Liberals will and I quote always step in to make sure unions have no power on Monday the NDP leader put his pension before country and workers and voted confidence in the Liberals will the government confirm has ordered workers back to work and what is the price liberals paid to keep NDP leader propping up this anti-worker government The Honorable minister of Labor and seniors Mr Speaker we acted decisively today to offer a creative solution to the labor dispute between Canada Post and its workers that constitutionally protected right to strike has been exercised for four weeks if workers were not to be on picket lines for some indefinite period over the holidays uh a solution had to be brought we work for all Canadians in this house Canadians were suffering small businesses were suffering indigenous and remote regions were suffering Mr Speaker the government had to act and that's what I did this morning how The Honorable member Kitchener sou hestler Mr Speaker our government is bringing real tax relief to Canadians tomorrow December the 14th Canadians can celebrate the holidays without having to worry about the extra cost of the GST this is a big help for Canadians across the country who will be able to keep more of their hard-earned money however conservative MPS voted against this tax cut could the minister explain to my constituents how this measure can alleviate their tax anxieties during the holiday season The Honorable Minister Mr Speaker I'd like to thank the member from kitner sou hesler for that question and for her dedicated service our government believes that when Canadians need a helping hand the government must be there and that's why starting tomorrow we are giving Canadians a tax break putting more money in their pockets this means that Essentials like groceries snacks kids clothing diapers all taxfree it means Canadians can focus on this very special time of year on the holiday spending time with family and friends and worry less about family budgets this holiday season is not a time to play politics it's a time to deliver for Canadians The Honorable member for Elmwood Transcona thank you Mr Speaker the Liberals short-term GST holiday is creating too much confusion for small businesses across this country this botch plan is adding more stress on local store owners at the busiest this time of year as they scramble to repic their inventory only to swap back in February thankfully new Democrats have a plan to make things simple let's make the GST cut permanent On Life's Essentials so Canadians can have more money and businesses know what to expect my question is will this government make life easier for everyone here here hi The Honorable The Honorable Minister Mr Speaker good news our government is delivering Canadians a GST tax break starting tomorrow tomorrow December 14th and this is going to really benefit retailers as well as consumers let's listen to what the retail Council of Canada said this break will create major tax savings for Canadians along with economic stimulus for our industry restaurant Canada called this a big win for the restaurant industry and predicts that our tax break will boost sales by 5% bringing restaurants a billion dollars of additional Revenue this tax break will bring more people into the doors of these small businesses we're grateful to be providing this break for Canadians The Honorable member of first Pina Fort York Mr Speaker today the Canada Post strike is a month old and there's no end in sight this essential service to small businesses is absent during critical sales period needed for their survival two obstinate groups hold Canada hostage while the Liberals desperate to cling to power are afraid to lose NDP support by ending the strike both should know that there are no workers to unionize or taxpayers to tax without employers and this government failure to act as harming Canada's top employers and our economy Mr Speaker will the government do its job put Canada first stop hiding behind the cirb and end this strike The Honorable minister of Labor and seniors well the job of the minister of Labor is to respect the Canada labor code that is exactly what we've done and today I acted decisively to use uh one of the powers granted to the minister of Labor under by this Parliament under the Canada labor code to provide a reasonable solution to workers and a creative way out of this very fundamental impass that we see at the bargaining table we're going to return Canada Post services to Canadians and to those who've been suffering over this conflict and hopefully arrive at a negotiated Collective Agreement by the spring
