Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays, Calgary Midnapore!
As 2023 comes to a close I wanted to take a moment and reflect on the year that was and some of the moments that stood out to me.
Early in the year, it was revealed that the government spent over $116 million dollars on insiders from the consulting firm McKinsey and Company. As Shadow Minister for the Treasury Board, I led the Conservative investigation on this front.
From there, the government tabled their 2023 Budget which left $60 billion dollars of new spending onto the inflationary fire. In April, the Public Service Alliance of Canada (PSAC) went on the longest public service strike in modern Canadian history and as the Conservative Shadow Minister on this file, I led the questioning on the government’s incompetence which paved the way for this strike to happen in the first place.
During the summer recess, I met with community members at celebrations on Canada Day and throughout various Stampede events and functions. I also spent much of August meeting with numerous cultural communities/associations here in Calgary, learning about their organizations and priorities.
In September Parliament resumed, and my Conservative colleagues and I continued applying pressure on the government to deliver a plan that will bring home lower prices for Canadians. Soon after, the RCMP announced that they were investigating the governments misconduct on the $54 million-dollar ArriveCan app. As a Member on the Government Operations Committee (OGGO) I’ve led the charge in getting the answers that Canadian taxpayers deserve.
That’s just a quick glimpse into some of my work as your Member of Parliament this past year.
