I hope you the process they themselves announced, and this is Justin Trudeau's had a wonderful summer. I understand that we are here for a very personal failure. The Prime Minister and his government failed the important issue and have come back to Ottawa specifically for this first nations plaintiffs with botched consultations. He failed the first committee hearing. nations that have signed substantial benefit agreements. He has failed Albertans. He has failed British Columbians.

In all the time I've been a parliamentarian, for first nations. The Prime Minister is responsible for lost I've never felt so compelled to call an emergency meeting as I have agreements and opportunity. since this issue presented itself last week. In all my years, this is the first time I felt that having an emergency meeting was so critical that we must have it and it really could not wait. I want to thank everyone On June 13 of this year Justin Trudeau proclaimed in this House for coming here today and the colleagues who felt that it was critical of Commons that our government has “completed the deepest enough to actually write the letter to call for this emergency meeting, consultations with rights holders ever for a major project in this both the Conservatives and the NDP, to discuss the Trans Mountain country.” On April 30 the Minister of Natural Resources stated in expansion project. question period, “we undertook the most exhaustive consultation on Last week the Federal Court of Appeal found that Justin Trudeau pipelines in Canadian history." What we actually did was add failed to consult first nations people. On Tuesday, our colleagues in additional layers of consultation principally with indigenous the natural resource committee asked to see Justin Trudeau's plan to communities. Yet the judge wrote in last Thursday's ruling that: get the Trans Mountain pipeline built, but he used his majority to shut down questions. The next day Justin Trudeau hid behind empty rhetoric. A government that promised to be open and transparent has the consultation framework selected by Canada was reasonable and sufficient. If continuously turned Canadians away with nothing but uncertainty, Canada properly executed it, Canada would have discharged its duty to consult. and that is why we're here today: to give Justin Trudeau and his However, based on the totality of the evidence I conclude that Canada failed in Phase III to engage, dialogue meaningfully and grapple with the concerns expressed to it in government a chance to outline his plans to build this pipeline and good faith by the Indigenous applicants so as to explore possible accommodation of get Canadians back to work. these concerns. 2 INAN-116 September 7, 2018 Clearly there was a proper framework for consultation in place, These are stories that we have not heard too frequently, and they but the Liberals botched the execution. are stories that need to be heard. These are some of the people who have been failed by the government's inability to consult properly. As Canadians have been reading for over a week now, the court squashed the Trudeau government green light to Trans Mountain and ordered it to redo its consultation. I am here today because of the silence of one of Justin Trudeau's own MPs, the member for Mission—Matsqui—Fraser Canyon, Ï (1105) where the Matsqui First Nation has also signed a negotiated benefit agreement for Trans Mountain. The ruling specifically says: Only after that consultation is completed and any accommodation made can the Project be put before the Governor in Council for approval. I have more stories to tell, colleagues. The Trudeau Liberals had a clear, court-mandated bar to reach, and they fell far short. The failure by the Prime Minister to get the The agreement signed with the Simpcw First Nation in my riding job done has put millions in benefit agreements in jeopardy for first will provide the Simpcw people with annual payments, employment nations and non-first nations communities, and it now hangs in the training, business opportunities, emergency response training, balance. equipment, and infrastructure. Colleagues, I've come to Ottawa today not just as the The Lower Nicola Band near Merritt has bought a 51% ownership Conservative Party shadow minister for indigenous and northern stake in the pipeline service company that provides maintenance affairs, but also as the member of Parliament for Kamloops— support to Kinder Morgan. This will create up to 40 jobs in peak Thompson—Cariboo. A significant portion of the pipeline is directly season for the band members—a huge boost to a community through the riding I represent. I am here today as the voice of my struggling with high unemployment. constituents, and many in British Columbia, to tell their stories to the Government of Canada and to tell their stories to the Prime Minister. Chief Casey Bird of Paul First Nation said this: I am here to speak the words of Chief Mike LeBourdais of Whispering Pines First Nation, who said they received $300,000 Kinder Morgan's ongoing support of the training, employment and community annually because Trans Mountain runs directly through their land.

We have to remember that this proposal is simply an expansion of an existing line that has Ï (1110) been there for over 60 years.

  • Joint Statement Calling for Sanctioning of Chinese and Hong Kong Officials and Protection for Hong Kongers at Risk of Political Persecution
    Joint statement calling for sanctioning of Chinese and Hong Kong officials and protection for Hong Kongers at risk of political persecution We, the undersigned, call upon the Government of Canada to take action in light of the mass arrests and assault on civil rights following the unilateral imposition of the new National Security Law in Hong Kong. Many in Hong Kong fear they will face the same fate as the student protestors in Tiananmen Square, defenders’ lawyers, and millions of interned Uyghurs, Tibetans, and faith groups whose rights of free expression and worship are denied. We urge the Government of Canada to offer a “Safe Harbour Program” with an expedited process to grant protection and permanent residency status to Hong Kongers at risk of political persecution under the National Security Law, including international students and expatriate workers who have been involved in protest actions in Canada. Furthermore, Canada must invoke the Sergei Magnitsky Law to sanction Chinese and Hong Kong officials who instituted the National Security Law, as well as other acts violating human rights; and to ban them and their immediate family members from Canada and freeze their Canadian assets. Canada needs to work closely with international allies with shared values to institute a strong policy toward China. It is time for Canada to take meaningful action to show leadership on the world stage.

    LEADERSHIP, ADVOCACY AND SERVICE FOR MANITOBA’S PUBLIC SCHOOL BOARDS May 12, 2016 Mr. Kevin Waugh Member of Parliament Saskatoon-Grasswood House of Commons Ottawa, ON K1A 0A6 Dear Mr. Waugh: On behalf of the Manitoba School Boards Association and its members, the public school boards of this province, I would like to thank you for undertaking the initiative reflected in Private Members’ Bill C-241, An Act to amend the Excise Tax Act (school authorities). As an association, we fully support the intent of this legislation, and would call upon MPs from all parties to support its speedy passage. For many years, the Manitoba School Boards Association, acting both independently and in concert with the Canadian School Boards Association, has advocated for an increase in the GST rebate paid to school boards, from the current 68% to 100%. This reflects our belief that the purchase of supplies and services required for the critical enterprise of public schooling should be exempt from consumption taxes levied by all levels of government: federal, provincial, and municipal. By enacting Bill-C241, the Canadian government would be leading by example, and underscoring the value it places on education. From a national perspective, the cost of increasing the GST rebate from 68% to 100% would not be large, under $190 million annually. However, the impact of those dollars on school boards’ ability to deliver quality educational programming and services to our nation’s children and youth would be significant. In Manitoba, for example, the additional 32% rebate would equate to an annual increase in revenue of $8.7 million.

Patty Hajdu Minister of Health Government of Canada February 27, 2021 Dear Minister Hajdu, We are members of an all-party caucus on emergency access to Trikafta, a game-changing therapy that can treat 90% of the cystic fibrosis population. We are writing to thank you for your commitment to fast- tracking access to Trikafta and to let you know that we are here to collaborate with you in this work. We know that an application for review of Trikafta was received by Health Canada on December 4th, 2020 and was formally accepted for review on December 23rd. We are also aware that the Canadian Agency for Drugs Technologies in Health (CADTH) body that evaluates the cost effectiveness of drugs is now reviewing Trikafta for age 12 plus for patients who have at least one F508del mutation. This indicates that Trikafta was granted an ‘aligned review,’ the fastest review route. The aligned review will streamline the review processes by the Patented Medicine Prices Review Board (PMPRB) to set the maximum amount for which the drug can be sold, and by Health Technology Assessment bodies (CADTH and INESSS) to undertake cost-effective analyses, which can delay the overall timeline to access to another 6 months or more. An aligned review will reduce the timelines of all of these bodies to between 8-12 months or sooner. But that is just one half of the Canadian drug approval system.
