Orders of the Day — Municipal Accountability Act, 2026 / Loi de 2026 sur la responsabilité au niveau municipal
Thank you very much for the question. I actually mentioned in my speech—and I didn’t fully realize that this had happened, but apparently Global News made an FOI request and found out that the bill had been killed behind…

Orders of the Day — Municipal Accountability Act, 2026 / Loi de 2026 sur la responsabilité au niveau municipal
Thank you to the member for the question. Yes, it’s a great point, because in the current bill, it not only requires unanimous vote of council to remove a councillor, but all of them have to actually be there. If one pe…

Orders of the Day — Municipal Accountability Act, 2026 / Loi de 2026 sur la responsabilité au niveau municipal

Orders of the Day — Municipal Accountability Act, 2026 / Loi de 2026 sur la responsabilité au niveau municipal
Thank you for the question. It’s a really good question. Actually, the parts of this bill that are adequate are the ones around integrity commissioners and developing a standardization. We’ve all heard and we all agreed…

Orders of the Day — Municipal Accountability Act, 2026 / Loi de 2026 sur la responsabilité au niveau municipal

Orders of the Day — Municipal Accountability Act, 2026 / Loi de 2026 sur la responsabilité au niveau municipal
Thank you for the question. I was at most of the 10 days of committee hearings, which is quite a few for any bill. We had some really good suggestions from people, and the first comment I would make is that the overwhelm…

Petitions — Social assistance
I’m tabling this petition entitled raise social assistance rates, which was sent to my office by Dr. Sally Palmer. ODSP and OW rates remain well below Canada’s official Market Basket Measure poverty line and falls short…

Question Period — Conservation authorities
Speaker, experts are not in favour of this government’s plan. Local voices are vital to conservation efforts. The people and the experts who live in these communities are the ones who should be guiding their approach to…

Orders of the Day — Building Homes and Improving Transportation Infrastructure Act, 2026 / Loi de 2026 pour la construction de logements et l’amélioration de l’infrastructure de transport
That is not what they said. The member wasn’t there in the committee. I was there for the entire thing. I heard their entire presentation. I have their presentation, actually. They did not say that nobody in Ontario shou…
