On Parliament Hill

Recently, as you all know, a terrible tragedy occurred. Fifteen members of the Humboldt Broncos Hockey team were killed in a tragic bus accident on a rural highway near Tisdale Saskatchewan.

If you’ve turned on the radio news or read the local paper lately, chances are you’ve noticed that rural crime has been on the rise.

Many of us remember Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s rebuke of a young woman at a town hall meeting back in February.

I am a Canadian, free to speak without fear, free to worship in my own way, free to stand for what I think right, free to oppose what I believe wrong, or free to choose those who shall govern my country.

Last week Conservative leader Andrew Scheer visited the UK. You probably didn’t hear much about it. He didn’t dress up in any costumes. He didn’t insult his hosts and he didn’t invite any convicted murderers and terrorists to any of his events.

The Trudeau Liberals’ recent budget is a failure to deliver for Canadian families. Instead of getting their (out of control) spending under control, they plan to borrow even more money from hardworking Canadians – adding billions more to the national debt.

There’s been a lot of talk this week about Justin Trudeau’s many wardrobe changes on his trip to India; his full slate of fun tourist stops, his celebrity chef and the complete lack of any substantive government meetings.

At a recent town hall meeting in Edmonton, a veteran asked the Prime Minister why the government was fighting veterans in court, despite promising not to do so during the election campaign.

The Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms guarantees freedom of conscience, religion, thought, belief, opinion, and expression. These rights are afforded to all of us in the Canadian family and governments have a duty to ensure that they protect and uphold them.

While Justin Trudeau is working to avoid paying back Canadian taxpayers for his vacation, Conservatives are working hard to ensure you can (afford to) take one.
