Madam Speaker, it is an honour to once again stand in the House and speak on the first day back in session. First, to all my colleagues, I want to say welcome back. After a summer spent in our constituencies, I am certain we are all excited to be back doing the work Canadians elected us to do. As a new MP elected just under five months ago, I can say that it has been a busy summer in Edmonton Sout…

Mr. Speaker, incidents of extortion are increasing at a rampant speed, and the Liberal government does not seem to be serious about it. In Edmonton, firebombs are being thrown at businesses and bullets are being fired at houses with demands for extortion money. Extortion is up by 357%. Liberals voted down the common-sense Bill C-381, which would have enforced a three-year mandatory minimum penalty…

Madam Speaker, the member says that Liberals are building one economy and are working on it. How can they build one economy when they are not taking into consideration the oil and energy sector of Alberta?

Mr. Speaker, 10 years of Liberal anti-energy laws have stopped pipelines from getting built. Energy companies will not build unless those Liberal laws are gone. To build pipelines, the Liberals need to repeal the suite of anti-energy laws: Bill C-69, the no new pipelines law; Bill C-48, the shipping ban; the job-killing oil and gas production cap; and laws such as the industrial carbon tax. Is it …

Madam Speaker, I want to point out that it is not a lie. The bill would “allow Canada Post—

Madam Speaker, as it has alway been, it is the Conservative Party's mandate to stand to support any positive step. Despite the fact that the tax cut the Liberals are talking about is so minimal, we will stand behind it.

Madam Speaker, that is such a wonderful question. From day one, when I heard that the Liberals are working on a single economy, I had questions like the member has. Until and unless the Liberals put down a plan or make clear what they mean by “single economy”, we are not going to support that. The real challenge or force that we can put forward to fight against Trump is making the economy stronger…

Madam Speaker, that is such a wonderful question. Yes, at the doors, I heard that we need pipelines, we need more jobs and we need infrastructure. I agree with the member that so far, the Liberals have come up with no concrete plan. They have given solid slogans and beautiful speeches, but that is about it. There are no details. There is no action plan with respect to how we are going to do that. …

Madam Speaker, Conservatives are all about common sense. They are strong advocates for strong paycheques so that Canadians will not be worried about paying their mortgage or about getting groceries for their kids. We will work hard on those principles, and we will make sure that we hold Liberals accountable for that.

Mr. Speaker, Canadians are getting crushed at the grocery store. Food inflation, since the start of this year, is out of control. Beef is up by 34%, oranges are up by 26%, and the list goes on. Ten years of Liberal inflationary deficit has a record number of Canadians going to food banks. Single mothers are watering down milk for their kids, and Canadians are eating less nutritious food. The Liber…

Mr. Speaker, first of all, this is my first time speaking in the House. It is nothing less than a privilege. This is my second week, and I am hearing this member on the other side of the House. I literally love him, but that is not the question. He is trying to sell us a fancy menu without telling us the price of the items that he wants to sell us on that menu. The issue is that, if he wants membe…
