We have clearly stated in our platform that we would introduce an anti-flipping tax, for those who purchase homes to flip and sell for profit within a 12-month period. The intent of doing this is to cool down the housing market and excessive pricing of homes. (2/3)

Canada has the strongest economy in the G7 & the lowest unemployment rate in over 40 years, under the Liberal government. We helped Canadians create 54,000 jobs in September alone. The Liberals have the best record, & the best plan to keep our economy moving forward.

The events in Jasper over the past days are heartbreaking, and any time disaster strikes it is natural to want to attribute blame. But as the Mayor of Jasper said earlier today, preparations were done properly and what could be done to protect the town was done. Jasper conducts

Climate change is a reality for farmers. While we are taking action to support them & adapt for the future, every single conservative MP has voted to cut the support farmers need in the wake of record droughts & extreme weather events. Now is not the time to be cutting supports.

I’m so proud of my father, a Canadian & World Curling Champion & pioneering curling commentator, who is getting an honorary street designation in Winnipeg. A stretch of Granite Way will be known as the Honorary Don Duguid Way. Good job Dad!
It was inspiring to join the incredible students at Fort Richmond Collegiate for their climate rally! These students are passionate about fighting climate change and building a cleaner, greener future.

Great to be at The Forks this morning to announce $1.18 million to support 15 new projects under the Lake Winnipeg Basin Program. This program will help reduce nutrients in the lake, enhance collaboration, and support the engagement of Indigenous peoples on freshwater issues.
I am deeply saddened to learn that the BAPS Shri Swaminarayan Mandir in Edmonton was vandalized today.
Defacing a place of worship is a repulsive act that goes against Canadian values of tolerance and respect. This act of hate is completely unacceptable.

Last week, we announced over $132M for 447 new rental units for middle class families and seniors in Winnipeg.

An exciting announcement this afternoon with Minister Mélanie Joly, as our federal government and provincial government in Manitoba team up to invest $400,000 towards securing a domestic supply of personal protective equipment.
1/ Disengaging with China on environmental issues is a bad idea.
Think about the success we had achieving a biodiversity deal in Montreal at COP15 along with China.
1/ Ten years ago it was reasonable for Western gov’ts to propose cooperation with China on GHG emissions.
Xi had just become leader. The IEA & many gov’ts, including Harper’s, thought global coal demand would peak in 2013 & decline from there.
