Our Leader,
@PierrePoilievre
was grateful to receive some homemade honey, syrup and a handmade wooden truck from a very kind local family for his young children. They wanted to show their appreciation for his authentic leadership.
I want to thank our leader, the Honourable
@PierrePoilievre
for the opportunity to serve Canadians in my new position as Associate Shadow Minister for National Defence. 🧵
However, what I am seeing with my own eyes on the streets of Ottawa from an increasing amount of bad faith actors is not a legitimate protest: it is two-bit hooliganism hiding behind a façade of veiled legitimacy.
After 8 years of this Liberal/NDP government we learned that Canada has now dropped to 62 out of 67 countries on climate performance - proving his carbon tax doesn't work.
Chrystia Freeland has introduced the Liberal changes to Capital Gains Taxes.
I voted against it this afternoon. We need Common sense, not another tax hike.
The violations of our airspace over the last ten days displayed our lack of ability to defend our sovereignty. Read Pierre Poilievre's statement below:
We can all agree that Canadian seniors have been the hardest hit these past two years. So when is the government going to correct the clawbacks to GIS and OAS? "We are very aware of this problem." does not help those on the verge of homelessness. Immediate action is required.
As a Conservative, I respect law. I respect order. When I see concerning aberration from either, I will speak up regardless of whether I agree with the cause or not. We must maintain law and order, especially in our nation's capital.
I am extremely honoured to be given the significant role and responsibility of Shadow Minister for Seniors. I am thrilled to be appointed to this role, and I want to take this opportunity to thank our Leader, Erin O'Toole, for the confidence he has invested in me.
To be clear: to those of you there in good faith, I continue to support your right to peaceful, respectful protest as I always have. However, I urge you to speak up if you see someone breaking the rules. These people lend no credence to your cause and only serve to damage it.
What started off largely as a friendly protest against federal COVID-19 mandates for our truckers crossing the US border has devolved into what I can only describe as a block party rife with fireworks, loud music, incessant honking, public consumption of alcohol,
and reported intimidation of local residents.
This is unacceptable.
The right to legitimate protest is an extremely important pillar of any functioning democracy. For those of you protesting with purpose, respect, and dignity, I applaud your patriotism and fight for freedom.
Pleased to ask a question today on behalf of Hastings - Lennox & Addington for the Official Opposition in reply to the Speech from the Throne. The affordability crisis caused by the irresponsibility of the Liberal government is unacceptable.
A life of greatness lived with purpose, leaving behind a legacy of love and inspiration.
An extraordinary man who embodied wisdom, kindness, integrity, and devotion to family, community, and nation.
It has been a busy week getting my team organized, meeting my colleagues and discussing Hastings-Lennox & Addington's priorities moving forward. I will not forget the mandate that you gave me when sending me to Ottawa. I am looking forward to Parliament reopening!
with respect for my constituents, with respect for the people of Ottawa, with respect for the Ottawa Police Services and Parliamentary Protective Services, and with respect for the institution of Parliament.
There are no words for how honoured and thankful I am to be standing in the House of Commons being sworn in as the Member of Parliament for the great riding of Hastings-Lennox & Addington in the 44th Parliament of Canada.
Every single day we are working towards bringing back responsible government.
Had a dynamic meeting with
@PierrePoilievre
and
@jamesbezan
about defence policy. Solid start to a productive week!
🏒 Game on!
@PierrePoilievre
is set to move a motion for a non-confidence vote in the Trudeau government, pushing for a carbon tax election. The
@CPC_HQ
team is ready for the face-off,
🚨AXE THE TAX
🚨FIX THE BUDGET
🚨BUILD THE HOMES
🚨STOP THE CRIME
Let's go! 🇨🇦
Groceries are up 11.4% this week! Canadians are already struggling and the Liberal tax hikes on groceries, gas and home heating are about to make it worse! They must be cancelled.
Let me introduce you to our legislative assistant, Matt van Vorstenbos. Since I arrived, he has been an integral part of the team. He is politically hardwired, resourceful, witty and offers sage advice! In his experienced tenure on the hill, he has earned the respect of many!

Today, after my short personal statement, there was a standing ovation acknowledging my dad in the House of Commons.
Happy Birthday, Dad ❤️
#PEI
Premier Dennis King came to the Parliament Buildings today, along with a truck of
#PEIpotatoes
because the CFIA has closed the US border for ALL exports of fresh PEI potatoes. I went to show my support after Trudeau failed to defend them at the negotiating table.
Tonight, I joined the University of Ottawa Conservatives' Women in Politics event. As a graduate of U of O, it felt great being back on campus encouraging young minds to colour outside the lines and always be authentic. It was a refreshing session of Q and A.

Daryl Kramp, a beautiful mind, whose respect was universally earned by all who had the privilege to know him.
Heartfelt appreciation to all those who have reached out to our family during this difficult time.
The Senate of Canada Building and the Peace Tower are purple to mark the anniversary of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II's coronation as part of the celebration of her Platium Jubilee.
Beautiful morning to knock on some doors in Bath & Odessa to spread our Conservative Common Sense Plan.
The message was clear 🇨🇦 Let’s bring it Home!
Awesome thanks to the volunteers who joiined me this morning.
#commonsensecanvas
Today, we honour the brave men and women in uniform who have served our country and those who continue to serve. Thank you to all who supported the Poppy Fund this year, and please remember that there are ways to support our veterans year-round.
I was recently asked to serve on the Conservative Party of Canada's Election Organizing Committee (LEOC), which sets the rules and regulations that govern the ongoing Conservative leadership race.
Today my colleague
@RaquelDancho
was removed from the House of Commons because she stated that the Liberals were lying to Canadians. I stand with her because she is standing up for the truth. The Liberals are implementing the largest assault on hunters in Canadian history.
An unforgettable service for a Canadian giant. 18th Prime Minister of Canada, the Right Honourable Brian Mulroney.
Honoured to be part of a beautiful and historic state funeral at Notre-Dame Basilica, Montreal.
Today, we pause to remember the tragic events of 9/11. We also acknowledge Canada's role, offering aid and sheltering thousands of stranded travelers. Let's honour those who lost their lives and cherish the unity shown in the face of adversity. Let us never forget.
Let me be clear: I will vote against any attempt by this Liberal government to take long guns away from farmers, hunters, and other law abiding firearm owners in Hastings-Lennox and Addington.
My guiding light, my mentor, my father; an exemplary soul whose impact will be felt for generations
💔 I’m heartbroken but so proud of the beautiful life he lived.
Wow, right from the Sr. VP of Military Family Services, “during relocation there is a financial strain, especially around seeking and securing accommodations”. After 8 years of Trudeau, our CAF members cannot afford housing, and more military families are using foodbanks.
The Ottawa office is up and functional! I just need to get some pictures on the wall!!
I can't wait to show you the local offices once they are open. 😀
The Trudeau Liberals have ignored mental health experts, advocates, and opposition parties and have instead opted to pursue a reckless expansion of assisted suicide for those suffering from mental illness.
@ZelenskyyUa
By my side in the House of Commons were my parents. It was the first time my father had been able to be there with me since I was elected.
@darylkramp
Seniors need a strong advocate now more than ever.
👉🏾 COVID-19 ravaged our long term care facilities
👉🏾 The cost of living is rising to unsustainable levels
👉🏾 Elder abuse is on the rise
👉🏾 Clawbacks on OAS and GIS
I'm ready to stand up for the seniors in HL&A and all of Canada.
It was a pleasure to watch the changing of the guard ceremony yesterday afternoon, and I wanted to share it with you! Today I will be sworn in as your Member of Parliament. I can't wait to get started working for you and with you for our future!
🌺 Today, we honour the bravery and sacrifice of the Canadian soldiers who fought valiantly at the Battle of Vimy Ridge during World War I. Their courage not only marked a turning point in the war but also helped forge a sense of national pride and identity for Canada.
For over 70 years, her majesty Queen Elizabeth the Second, Head of the Commonwealth, has led our nation and commonwealth. I wish her a speedy recovery. Long may she reign.
On National Child Day we reaffirm our shared mission to ensure every child feels safe, protected, and heard. In 1991 Canada made a commitment to ensure that all children are treated with dignity and respect and have every opportunity to reach their full potential.
🥶 Ice Ice Baby 🎵
Thank you again to the organizers of the Tweed Winter Carnival, and thank you to everybody who sponsored me and the other 'plungers' because $5000 has been donated back to the community! Well done everybody!!
Social Media Takeover!!
Today is Shelby's birthday, and her team wants to wish her a very happy day! We are very fortunate to have her, not only as a boss but as a leader, a mentor and an inspiration to all of us.
Productive working breakfast with part of the Ontario caucus this morning. While this brutal affordability crisis challenges Canadians, we are working hard to hold this tired government to account. Canadians are out of money, and this Liberal Government is out of touch.
I am often asked about how I juggle my demanding public service role and my incredible yet busy family. It's a balance, but I am thankful for each day that I have to make a difference.
🎉The Ivanhoe office doors are open!!
Talk about full circle! This is the building where I first served on the municipal council. It feels great to be back! Visit 11379 Highway 62.
Today is the beginning of Veterans Week. Every year during the lead-up to Remembrance Day, we honour those who have served Canada in times of war, military conflict and peace.
A baby girl is a miracle that never ceases to be miraculous. 🩷
Happy to join some of my Conservative colleagues to shower
@RachaelThomasMP
with love & advice in anticipation of baby to be.
We will not stop fighting to axe the NDP-Liberals' carbon taxes to make life more affordable for all Canadians.
For the people of H-L&A, we will continue to vote Non-confidence against this government.
This is a beautiful tradition!
