He's not dedicated to our country! McCauley calls out the same old corrupt, tired Liberal government

追加: 2026-05-19

[00:00:00]Thank you, Mr. Speaker. You know, the Conservatives have adopted this policy of just get out of the way and it's unfortunate in regards to the government has been able to achieve a great deal over the last year. Canadians elected a new Prime Minister. This new Prime Minister made a commitment to to build Canada strong by looking at things such as the major projects. That means working with Premiers and others. In fact, in province of Alberta, the members own province, there's an MOU of understanding that's going to see more natural resources getting to to the West Coast. There's all sorts of opportunities in which the government is a major player in. The Calgary the Calgary office has been set up. I'm wondering if the member could give his his thoughts in regards to is there anyone within the Conservative Party that supports the major projects?

[00:00:47]>> The honorable member for Edmonton West.

[00:00:51]The member from Winnipeg North overlooks the fact this this government has not repealed C-48 which ensures no pipeline will get built to the BC coast. He overlooks this government has still not repealed C-69, the no new pipeline bill.

[00:01:07]This government has still not repealed the oil and gas production cap. Who is going to invest in this country when you cannot get our oil to market, when your government is punishing oil and gas industries with a carbon tax that doesn't apply to other similar industries in other countries? The major project office is like everything else the Liberals offer, it's an illusion.

[00:01:31]Questions and commentary allowed.

[00:01:33]Questions and comments, the honorable member for Joliette-Matawin.

[00:01:37]Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I thank the member for his speech.

[00:01:40]I have a rather technical question.

[00:01:43]Of course, the bill would amend many laws including the Banking Act.

[00:01:49]The government would facilitate takeovers of Canadian banks by foreign entities.

[00:01:57]The government was elected on a promise to protect Canadians from Trump.

[00:02:04]Now, they're making it easier for foreign entities, especially American ones, to take over Canadian banks. Is this because Brookfield is now registered in the United States and they can use tax havens that they're making this change, or is this just kowtowing to the American president?

[00:02:22]>> brought up a great point. He's actually brought up two great points. This government, when they were first elected, 2015, the same old corrupt tired liberal government, when they were elected, said they would no longer do omnibus bills. And that's what this is I think it's 11 different pieces of legislation, including the act of mention.

[00:02:42]But onto the direct question about helping foreign entities come in and take over our banking system. I honestly wonder what he expects from our Prime Minister. One of his last acts in the private sector was moving his company out of Canada into the states and then denying actually did it. The Prime Minister is not dedicated to our country. I think he's dedicated to his business interests.

[00:03:04]>> Questions and comments. The honorable member for Calgary Centre.

[00:03:07]I thank my colleague for the excellent speech. One thing he missed in that speech that I think needs to be brought here very clearly, and I know he'll be able to address this, is the extra $3 billion put forward by this government in a horrendously overstretched deficit.

[00:03:22]$3 billion for international climate initiatives around the world. Does he really think Canadians can afford an extra $3 billion and what this signals as far as the government's commitment to actually get things done properly with Canadian taxpayers' money?

[00:03:36]Member for Edmonton Centre or member for West. I'd like to thank my colleague from Calgary Centre for his speech and also for his continued advocacy for Alberta oil and gas industry. It is ridiculous. This government continues its virtue signaling tour around the world spending Canadian money on wasteful products I our projects I believe overseas when we have 2.2 million people annual or every month in food banks in Canada. We have seniors. We have parents who cannot feed their children. This government should be focused on growing our wealth not spending our wealth abroad so they can have photo ops. Honorable member brief question the honorable member for Saanich Gulf Islands. Thank you Mr. Speaker and my honorable friend for Edmonton West we frequently hear said in this place what he said that the government was ready to move ahead under the previous government of Stephen Harper with Northern Gateway and then it was then liberals who struck it down. We I think we forget and I'm certain that many people have forgotten which I don't forget that the conservative platform in 2011 was specifically against exporting bitumen to Asia. Specifically Stephen Harper's platform said we should not ship Canadian fossil fuels to refineries in countries that had weaker environmental standards than we did. So they were explicitly against pipelines across British Columbia to export to Asia and as for Northern Gateway it was struck down by the federal court of appeal uh and due to actions by the previous government not the liberals.

[00:05:07]Honorable member for Edmonton West a very brief brief response. Well of course I disagree with the member from the Green Party as we probably disagree on everything. I think she needs to leave the past behind and like Marty McFly go back to the future and understand Canada's in a different spot right now. We need to get get the pipelines built. We need to build the wealth in Canada to serve Canadians.
