Pleased to mark Remembrance Day in Vancouver as we pay tribute to the countless Canadians who, across generations, have answered the call to serve, making profound sacrifices that can never be fully repaid. We remember those who never returned, whose courage and legacy live on in the peace and freedoms we cherish. Their service reminds us of our enduring responsibility to preserve these values for generations to come.

“He’s right! We’re not at the negotiating table right now. Do you know why, Mr. Speaker? Because we walked away when it was in Canada’s interest to show the Americans that we weren’t going to accept a bad deal.” After @PierrePoilievre's theatrics, @StevenMacKinnon gave him the smackdown!

Canada and the EU are working towards the deepest possible partnership — short of full membership — with Canada becoming the European Union’s first Associate Member. Today in Montréal, we took a major step forward with more than twenty new measures that will create greater affordability, opportunity, and sovereignty on both sides of the Atlantic. pm.gc.ca/en/news/news-releas…

Great pleasure to connect with a full house of 3,000 registrants at the Electricity Transformation Canada Summit in Toronto.

I am on my way to Edmonton. I will get briefed on the latest developments regarding the terrible incident that occurred at CFB Wainwright. The Department of National Defence continues to work closely with the Government of Alberta and local authorities. Thank you to first responders, Canadian Armed Forces members, and provincial officials for their efforts. To the families and everyone in Wainwright: Canada stands with you.

Canada’s new government is cutting unnecessary red tape to save Canadians and businesses time and money. With the recent introduction of Bill S-7, the Cutting Red Tape for All Canadians Act, we’re proposing changes across 11 federal departments and agencies to streamline services, support farmers and businesses, and create more opportunities for economic growth.

We’re helping one million Canadian households make energy-saving retrofits. More efficient homes. Lower bills. More money in Canadians’ pockets.

We ran on a promise to cut red tape. To remove arduous, duplicative regulations across government. We’re keeping that promise — and making the big, necessary changes that will help us build, invest, and deliver faster.
We’re cutting red tape. Canada’s government introduced the Cutting Red Tape for all Canadians Act. Building on existing progress, we’re targeting over 30 laws to make it easier for Canadians to access services and spend less time on paperwork. Including in sectors like agriculture, fisheries, mining and telecommunications. Canada strong for all.

It was a great pleasure to rise in the House to pay tribute to Dr. Arsalan Mohajer for a lifetime of distinguished achievement, exemplary leadership, and enduring service. Was honoured to participate at a ceremony this past weekend dedicated to recognizing his contributions as a scientist, educator, civic leader, and philanthropist.
