Opposition Motions

June 13, 2025 — — That, given that the Liberal government is banning the sale of gas-powered vehicles that will force Canadians to buy electric vehicles, and this mandate will drive up the cost of vehicles by $20,000, in order to allow Canadians the choice to purchase any vehicle that meets their needs at a price they can afford, the House call on the Liberal government to immediately end their ban on gas-powered vehicles.

June 13, 2025 — — That, given that,

(i) the government's plan to prepare Canada for its ban on gas-powered vehicles will cost Canadians $300 billion,

(ii) the government's own research predicts that by the target date of the ban the charging infrastructure and electricity generation capacity will not be available to meet the demand, the consequences of which will have the greatest negative impact on "rural, remote, and Indigenous communities and lower-income areas",

the House call on the government to cancel its plan to ban gas-powered vehicles and instead allow consumers to decide their own personal transportation needs in accordance with their own personal budgets.

June 13, 2025 — — That, given that the government plans on spending a record $26.1 billion on consultants, an increase of 36% in one year, and an added burden of $1,400 placed on every household in Canada, the House call on the government to end the practice of using high-priced consultants who get rich on the backs of hard-working Canadians with little to nothing to show for it and rely instead on Canada’s professional public servants to provide the advice they are qualified and paid to give.

, , , , and — June 13, 2025

June 13, 2025 — — That, given the Liberals’ election promises to balance the budget, make Canada the world’s leading energy superpower, double the pace of construction to almost 500,000 new homes a year, and make Canada’s economy the strongest of the G7, including the most recent promise to meet the NATO spending target of 2% GDP by April 1, 2026, the House call on the government to provide, in the upcoming budget, a detailed plan outlining how the government intends to pay for these promises.

June 13, 2025 — — That, given that BC Ferries announced it will purchase four new full-sized ferries from a Chinese state-owned company rather than from a proven Canadian shipbuilder, such as Seaspan in North Vancouver, and the Liberal government is set to subsidize this purchase with a $30 million handout to BC Ferries, the House call on the government to attach a condition of buying Canadian-built ships in its federal payments to BC Ferries.
