🚨 'I want to warn you, Mr. Speaker… I may read today from a very dangerous book.' That book? The Bible. A book the government now wants to treat as hate speech. Watch my full speech on Bill C-9 here. 👇 Etched into the very rock of Centre Block, just steps from the House of Commons, are more than two dozen Scriptures. Our national motto 'From Sea to Sea' comes straight from Psalms. How can a nation literally carved from biblical truths now seek to criminalize those truths through Bill C-9? In this full speech, I expose how the Liberals' Faustian bargain with the Bloc removes long-standing good-faith protections for sincere religious expression, ignores centuries of Western commitment to fearless speech, and replaces debate with 'just trust us.' The antidote to hatred is not censorship. It is more speech. More truth. More freedom. Freedom is the sure possession of those alone who have the courage to defend it. Will you defend it?

Bill C-22 creates a front door, not a back door, to Canadian's data, and it gives the keys to the government and does so in secret. These are just some of the reasons I opposed Bill C-22 today, at least in it's current form. Watch below. My thanks to David T.S. Fraser, Michael Geist, Robert Diab, the CCF and others for their analysis and advocacy which greatly informed my remarks. I remain open to reviewing and considering proposals for lawful access.

Are Liberal taxes really "imaginary"? The Liberal government says yes, you are imagining it all—but Canadians paying the industrial carb tax, inflation tax, and fuel standards tax know the truth. Watch to see the reality of how these policies hit your wallet.

Canadians should not be forced to bail out condo developers. Condo prices in the Vancouver area, Canada's most expensive housing market, should be allowed to normalize, giving the next generation a fair shot at home ownership. A bailout won’t create new housing — it will only keep prices out of reach for many Canadians. We requested a review of this proposal at the Ethics Committee this week. My full remarks are below.

Canadians mail should not be accessed without a warrant. Canadians should not be kicked off the internet without due process. Canadians should not be threated with unprecedented police powers to suppress speech online. But for every societal problem, the Liberals' first instinct is to erode the freedoms of Canadians. Thank you to the many residents of York-Durham who have written to me about this. I will keep fighting against the kinds of attacks on personal freedom the government has introduced in Bills C-2, C-8, and C-9.

Liberal MPs have blocked an investigation into the $1.45 billion bailout for unsold condos. Why are Canadians footing the bill for developers' mistakes? Let the market correct itself. This moral hazard leaves taxpayers paying while insiders profit. Transparency is non-negotiable. Aaron Gunn Gabriel Hardy

All parties agreed that it was important that Minister Joly come to trade committee, given it is her job to advocate for Canadian industry. She has refused. Today, I put a motion on notice to report Minister Joly's failure to show up at committee to the House.

When you pull up to the pump today, you might be filling your tank with Russian oil, refined and shipped here through a loophole in Canada's sanctions. I asked the responsible Minister, Anita Anand, to close it. Rather than answer, she confusingly tried to suggest I didn't want to sanction Russia? I do! In fact, I want her to close the loophole that has Canadians indirectly funding the war. Why won't the government act? Should this loophole stay open?

🚨 Nearly a year since Mark Carney became PM promising Canadians an ‘even better deal’ and a ‘win’ with the US to beat Trump tariffs… Fast-forward to today: still no deal, tariffs hitting hard on steel, autos & more; diversification won’t save us. And guess what, recent Supreme Court case doesn’t change anything. Where’s that promise now? Watch the video breakdown 👇
