February 23, 2012 — Ms. Duncan (Etobicoke North) — That, given Canada is a signatory to the 1992 World Declaration on Nutrition, which states that access to nutritionally adequate and safe food is a right of each individual, the House call on the government to: (a) accept the principle that Canada’s children and adolescents are entitled to nutritious food regardless of where they live or their family’s income; (b) initiate discussions with provincial and territorial governments to a develop pan-Canadian school nutrition initiative; and (c) fully fund on-reserve aboriginal student meals.

April 27, 2012 — Mr. McKay (Scarborough—Guildwood) — That the House call on the government to: (a) restart the process to replace the Royal Canadian Air Force’s CF-18 fighter aircraft under a secretariat named the “New Canadian Fighter Aircraft Secretariat”; (b) proceed with an open and transparent Canadian competition based on the publicly disclosed needs of Canada’s future national and international mission requirements, formulated on Canadian interests, international obligations and foreign policy objectives; (c) provide all necessary information such as the total life-cycle cost of this future fighter to Parliament; (d) ask that the Parliamentary Budget Officer review the estimated cost and be provided with the appropriate resources to do so; (e) fully disclose the related cost of this replacement aircraft and that it be tabled in Parliament, along with updates every 6 months; and (f) ask that the Auditor General of Canada review the process before the publication of the request for proposal (RFP) is issued.

April 27, 2012 — Mr. Garneau (Westmount—Ville-Marie) — That the House recognize the challenge of Internet access for many Canadians and the even greater challenge of access to computers for low income Canadians; and therefore call on the government to: (a) ensure the highest possible level of computer and Internet literacy for Canadians, and in particular for low-income Canadians who would otherwise be left out; (b) achieve these goals by committing to the continuation of the Community Access Program (CAP), particularly in the rural regions of the country; and (c) commit to implementing a program similar to the U.S. Connect-to-Compete program which promises to bring low-cost computers and Broadband Internet access to low-income households by working with Canadian Internet and computer providers.

May 28, 2012 — Mr. McKay (Scarborough—Guildwood) — That the House reject the government’s continuing mismanagement of the replacement of the CF-18 fighter aircraft, including: (a) the government’s presentation of information to Parliament which was dramatically different from information presented to the Cabinet; and (b) the Prime Minister’s claim that a contract existed which protected the public purse from rising costs, when no such contract exists; that the House agrees with both the Auditor General and the Parliamentary Budgetary Officer that the lack of due diligence by the Departments of National Defence and Public Works and Government Services has left Parliament and Canadians without the information necessary to make a reasoned judgment with respect to this procurement; that the government is ignoring the finding of contempt of Parliament of March 25, 2011, and continuing its failure to provide Parliament with full and accurate information; that a Special Committee be appointed and directed to review the replacement of Canada’s fighter aircraft; that the committee commence its study by undertaking a Foreign and Defence Policy review in order to better define the mission requirements of the aircraft; that the membership of the special committee consist of 12 members which shall include seven members from the government party, four members from the Official Opposition and one member from the Liberal Party, provided that the Chair shall be from the government party; that the members to serve on the said committee be appointed by the Standing Committee on Procedure and House Affairs and the report containing the membership of the special committee be presented to the House no later than 20 sitting days after the adoption of this motion; that substitutions to the membership of the special committee be allowed, if required, in the manner provided by Standing Order 114(2); that the special committee have all the powers of a Standing Committee as provided in the Standing Orders.

May 28, 2012 — Mr. Dion (Saint-Laurent—Cartierville) — That the House recognize the alleged systematic, organized attempt to deny Canadian voters across the country their fundamental right to vote and have their voices heard during the 2011 federal election campaign, through the use of phone calls designed to deter supporters of particular parties from casting their ballot by misdirecting them to the wrong polling site, or harassing them so they would not vote at all; and because these actions have called the integrity of the electoral process and the election results in at least 16 ridings in question, the House call on the government to convene a Royal Commission to fully investigate these alleged election irregularities.

May 28, 2012 — Ms. Duncan (Etobicoke North) — That the House recognize that access to sufficient, safe, healthy, adequate food is a fundamental human right to which many Canadians are denied; that access to food is fundamental to the fulfillment of other human rights; that the absence of this basic right is an affront to human dignity, which offends our sense of justice and fairness as Canadians; and that the House call on the government to immediately address this disparity through the creation of a National Food Policy, in consultation with all stakeholders, Aboriginal organizations, and provincial and territorial governments.

May 28, 2012 — Mr. Casey (Charlottetown) — That the House recognize the tremendous sacrifice that our veterans have made on behalf of Canada, and call on the government to do the honourable thing and not appeal the May 1, 2012 Federal Court of Canada decision that found that the government was in breach of the Service Income Security Insurance Plan (SISIP) policy by clawing back disability benefits from Canada’s disabled veterans.

May 28, 2012 — Mr. Rae (Toronto Centre) — That, in the opinion of the House, the Indian Act is the embodiment of failed colonial and paternalistic policies which have denied First Nations their rights, fair share in resources; fostered mistrust and created systemic barriers to the self-determination and success of First Nations; that the House call on the government to eliminate these barriers by initiating a formal process of direct engagement with First Nations, on a nation-to-nation basis, which focuses on replacing the Indian Act with new agreements based on: (a) the Constitutional, Treaty, and inherent rights of all First Nations; (b) the historical and fiduciary responsibilities of the Crown to First Nations; (c) the standards established in the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, including the principle of free, prior, and informed consent; (d) respect, recognition, reconciliation and support for First Nations; (e) partnership and mutual accountability between the Crown and First Nations; and (f) stability and safety of First Nations; that this process begin within three months and be completed within two years; and that the process conclude with a final report which details a series of concrete deliverables for the government to act upon.

September 21, 2012 — Mr. Rae (Toronto Centre) — That the House call on the government to immediately end the punitive new claw back of Employment Insurance benefits, which begins with the very first dollar earned, disadvantages EI claimants with low-earnings, discourages many Canadians on EI from working, and does serious harm to Canadian families and the economy.

September 27, 2012 — Mr. Nantel (Longueuil—Pierre-Boucher) — That, in the opinion of the House, the government should: (a) recognize the important role played by the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation/Société Radio-Canada in developing unique Canadian content in both official languages, sustaining the arts and culture industry in Canada, and bringing together Canadians from east to west while also supporting regional identities with content that is both local and national; (b) reverse the cuts to CBC’s budget; and (c) provide CBC with adequate and stable funding.

October 11, 2012 — Ms. Fry (Vancouver Centre) — That the House recognize the serious and ongoing mental health crisis in Canada which costs the Canadian economy more than $50 billion each year, as well as incalculable costs to families and society in terms of loss of human potential; that an immediate, meaningful and sustained response from all levels of government is required; and therefore call on the government to fully implement and fund the Mental Health Commission of Canada’s “Mental Health Strategy for Canada” which includes: (a) working collaboratively with the provinces and territories to develop a sustainable mental health infrastructure across the country; (b) improving timely access to all necessary services and supports; and (c) improving the federal government’s own capacity to develop and deliver the highest quality, appropriate mental health services and supports in areas for which it has direct responsibility.

March 1, 2013 — Mr. Scott (Toronto—Danforth) — That, in the opinion of the House, given that the Auditor General has found that Senate “expense claim files do not always contain sufficient documentation” and that “it is difficult for the Administration to clearly conclude that expenses are appropriate”, an independent authority should be appointed to conduct an in-depth review of matters related to Senate residency requirements, housing allowances and travel expenses since January 2008, including access to all relevant documentation and authority to interview all relevant persons, and that this authority report to the House on the following questions: (a) whether any Senators have failed to comply with the constitutional residency requirements for the Senate of Canada as outlined in Sections 23 and 31 of the Constitution Act of 1982; (b) whether any Senators have claimed housing allowances to which they were not properly entitled under Senate rules; and (c) whether any Senators have incurred travel or transportation expenses not relating to parliamentary functions including travel to any personal residence not within either the province or territory they were appointed to represent or the National Capital Region.

April 11, 2013 — Ms. Bennett (St. Paul's) — That, in the opinion of the House, a prime cause of the economic and social disadvantages faced by First Nations in Canada is the inadequacy of the educational opportunities available to First Nations children, which is fueled by the large and unacceptable per-student funding gap that exists between federally-funded First Nations schools on-Reserve and provincially-funded schools off-Reserve; and that the House call upon the government to fund the K-12 education of First Nations children attending on-Reserve at a level which matches provincial government investments per-child off-Reserve.
