I’d like to begin by recognizing that we’re on the traditional, unceded territory of the Algonquin people. I want to thank them again for their hospitality and generosity, Megweech. I also want to start by saying a large thank you to all my colleagues for giving me the opportunity to speak on this very important ...
Madam Speaker, I want to start by acknowledging that we are here today, as every day, on the traditional unceded territory of the Algonquin Nation. We are currently debating the new NAFTA. The Green Party considers this to be a real improvement over the first version of NAFTA, now that chapter 11 has been removed. ...
Madam Speaker, I am honoured to rise today for the first time this year and at the start of a new decade. I would like to share my time with my colleague, the hon. member for Nanaimo—Ladysmith. I am very happy that all the members of the Green Party will have an opportunity to speak ...

Elizabeth May: Mr. Speaker, I congratulate my hon. colleague on his first speech as the Parliamentary Secretary to the President of the Treasury Board. I just wish he had better content for his first speech. Bill C-58 is such a massive disappointment. I have never seen a commissioner like the Privacy Commissioner pan legislation as ...
Elizabeth May: Mr. Speaker, words may fail me, and that rarely happens. This bill is despicable. The minister should be ashamed of the claim she makes on the floor of this House, the claim that she is supported by doing consultations, when she explicitly ignored the advice of the expert panel on environmental assessment. It ...
Elizabeth May: Madam Speaker, I rise to raise a question I initially asked on May 30, not long ago. While the procedures for Adjournment Proceedings call for being allowed to ask for such a debate when the answer received is not sufficient, I think I am within the rubric of our rules in asking for this ...
