In 2025 Justin Trudeau will step down as Prime Minister. This comes on the heels of a fall parliamentary session featuring virtually no government legislation, government scandals like the “Green Slush Fund”, a chaotic tabling of the Fall Economic statement, and the resignation or firing of nine Liberal cabinet ministers.
The Prime Minister also announced the prorogation of Parliament until March 24. This means that all bills in progress (except Private Members’ bills), are terminated, all Parliamentary committees cease to exist, and no meetings or votes in Parliament can occur – depriving MPs of the tools to hold the government to account.
The Government must pass new spending authorization before the end of March for the government to continue operating. There must be a vote for this spending, and it must occur within days of the scheduled resumption of Parliament. Such votes are “confidence votes.” I will vote non-confidence in the government. The other opposition Parties have publicly committed to voting non-confidence. If they are true to their word, the government will be defeated, and an election will be called.
In the community, I spoke at the Silver Springs Community Association AGM which was well-attended. Also, congratulations to the Rockland Park Homeowners Association on the Lodge and Park opening.
I regularly meet with constituents who would like to discuss national policy and events. Feedback from Calgarians is very important to me. If you would like to share your thoughts with me on national issues, please feel welcome to contact me through my Calgary office.
It remains my honour to represent you at the House of Commons as your Member of Parliament.
