Congratulations to the Norfolk General Hospital Foundation on a successful gala. The work NGHF is doing to fund a new mammogram machine for our community is critical for increasing early detection of breast cancer, and I was glad to join the celebration of this important work.
It was an inspiring morning joining our community at the Grand River Prayer Breakfast. Thank you to all who make this such a powerful gathering year after year.
It's shocking that in 2021, 25% of deaths among young people were opioid-related. This is the result of reckless, radical government policies that have flooded our streets with these dangerous drugs. Our young people need treatment and support, not taxpayer-funded drugs.
It’s clear that this government is out of touch when a director who sent $42M in tax dollars to companies she owns through Trudeau's Green Slush Fund gets appointed to the Infrastructure Bank board.
Is it also a coincidence that she works at Cycle Capital, the same firm Steven…
The tale of the Liberal $1 Billion Green slush fund:
A group of companies receives $42m from the fund. Conveniently, a director of the entity overseeing the fund of taxpayer money has a financial interest in the companies that received money.
The director is also involved in…
Congratulations to Kyle Hiebert on being awarded this year’s Long Point Region Conservation Stewardship Award for his work in environmental sustainability! It reminds us that farmers across our region are working on environmental initiatives while producing the food that feeds us…
Finally pressured to say something.
This is the division the Prime Minister has sown. This rhetoric has had a place in every major city on almost every weekend for more than 6 months.
Do something.

As Jewish people in Canada and around the world mark the miraculous deliverance of the Israelite people from slavery in Egypt, I would like to wish those celebrating a Happy Passover & continued prayers for freedom.
The Conservatives' demands for this budget were common sense and compassionate. They sought to do one thing: make life more affordable.
Liberals have no plan to reverse the affordability crisis in their 2024 budget, so Conservatives will be voting non-confidence.
It is ironic that faculty at an institution of "higher learning" are prohibiting dialogue and resorting to name calling. Will people be cancelled for merely calling for peace in the region, or for insisting that the hostages be returned home?
Doing the right thing for humanity…
It's hard to believe that an American company worth $117 billion needs a taxpayer-funded loan to build an electricity cable.
The Canada Infrastructure Bank is out of touch. Canadians need affordable food and housing, not money thrown at Fortune500 Companies.
This afternoon, I presented my annual World Autism Month statement in the Canadian House of Commons as Jaden looked on from the gallery. Please take a minute to watch and share. 🙂
"April is World Autism Month and now 26 years since my son Jaden was diagnosed. Since then, I've…
The proof is out. While Canadians are choosing between eating and heating, Liberals gave preferential treatment to their friends at McKinsey, awarding over $100M in government contracts.
This government is not worth the cost or the corruption.
Last year, the $35 billion Canada Infrastructure bank spent 20 times more on salaries & bonuses than on actual infrastructure.
They also gave out 8+ million in bonuses to its executives.
In 2022, and almost every year since it started, they have spent multiple times more on…
3 common sense demands for tomorrow's budget:
🪓 Axe the tax on farmers and food.
🛠️ Build the homes, not bureaucracy.
📉 Cap the spending with a dollar-for-dollar rule to bring down interest rates and inflation.
Common sense Conservatives will only support the budget if these…
Renters in Calgary are facing unaffordable rent hikes at an apartment building that is being retrofitted with $150 million Canadian tax dollars through the Canada Infrastructure Bank.
With rent increases of up to $1000 a month, many will find themselves homeless.
The CIB is…
Residents of Calgary apartment buildings are speaking out against a property management group who they say have been handing out "astronomical" rent increases -- some as high as $1000.
Conservative Bill C-234 provides Carbon Tax relief for the farmers who grow Canadian food and make a real impact on reducing food prices. Sadly, Liberal appointees gutted the bill.
Time to pass C-234 in its original form, and axe the tax so Canadians can afford to live again.
Imagine an unprofitable company, funded by Canadian taxpayers, giving $8M in bonuses to its execs who basically only outsource work?
The fact that the CEO can’t see how offensive this is to Canadian taxpayers is just shocking.
Why is CIB paying millions in bonuses to its…

@CIB_en
defends $8M bonuses including average $204,000 bonus per executive, says Infrastructure Bank "has really hit its stride."
@LeslynLewis
@DanMuysMP
The Canada Infrastructure Bank has ballooned to 122 employees. Yet, it still spends millions on outside consultants and projects still don't get built. Then it pays its execs millions in bonuses as a reward for outsourcing work.
If the CIB can't do the work, then what are the…
