Update: after the NDP kept holding the line against their silly and time-wasting amendments to Sustainable Jobs Act, the Conservatives capitulated and gave up.

But only after they wasted a few hundred thousand dollars of House operating costs.

The Report Stage is complete!

It feels great to systematically knock down all the ridiculous Conservative amendments to Sustainable Jobs Act, which workers have fought so hard for and is a key part of the NDP’s legislative agenda.

We’ll do this while the Cons burn through taxpayer money with nuisance votes.

Thank you to the federal government & Canada’s NDP’s for taking steps to pass the Sustainable Jobs Act. Siobhan Vipond joined United Steelworkers’s Marty Warren & IUOE’s Patrick Campbell to call on MPs to work together & get this worker-focused legislation passed.

Despicable.

« Gut & cut » Corporate Conservatives refused to adopt initiated report to end rent increases for military personnel.

AND

Conservatives blocked debate on Act that will help millions of Canadians get medication they need.

Cons don’t care about YOU

While Cdns are getting hosed by Pierre Poilievre and the gang are ragging the puck in the on pharmacare that gets people fairer access to diabetes meds and contraception. So much for defending workers.

To Galen Weston, there is no such thing as too much profit. Pierre Poilievre agrees.

While Pierre was in power as a minister, Conservatives gave $60B in handouts to rich CEOs.

As PM, I’d cut that spending and put that $ back where it belongs: YOUR pocket, not Galen Weston’s.

Poilievre claimed that 'there is no industrial carbon tax on the oil and gas sector' and then went on a condescending rant about how I should do my research.

He's either ignorant about the policy he says he wants to run an election on, or he's deliberately misleading Canadians.

Today, April 9th, is the anniversary of the Battle of Vimy Ridge in 1917.

Behind me is William Longstaff’s 1929 painting, The Ghosts of Vimy Ridge, in which the spectres of fallen Canadian soldiers trod back to camp, illuminated by the massive Canadian monument to the battle.
