Tuesday, September 27, 2022 — first allotted day.

Opposition Motion
September 23, 2022 — Mr. Poilievre (Carleton) — That, in the opinion of the House, given that the government's tax increases on gas, home heating and, indirectly, groceries, will fuel inflation, and that the Parliamentary Budget Officer reported the carbon tax costs 60% of households more than they get back, the government must eliminate its plan to triple the carbon tax.
Notice also received from:

Opposition Motions
December 3, 2021 — Mr. O'Toole (Durham) — That, given that,
(i) Canadians deserve climate action, access to low cost, readily available alternatives to high carbon products, and sustainable jobs,
(ii) energy producers in Alberta are rapidly decarbonizing their production processes and are subject to a 100MT per year emissions cap,
(iii) Canada allows the importation of high carbon oil and gas from countries like Saudi Arabia that do not have emissions productions caps,
(iv) this imbalance has the net effect of making Canadians more reliant on high cost, high carbon fuel, and increasing global greenhouse gas emissions, while offshoring Canadian jobs to high carbon producing nations,
the House call on the government to support Canadian energy sector efforts to decarbonize production, support Canadian energy sector workers, and impose commensurate tariffs on imported sources of carbon energy so that it is not free for polluters outside of Canada to provide energy to Canadians while contributing to rising greenhouse gas emissions.

Ms. Rempel Garner (Calgary Nose Hill) and Mr. Deltell (Louis-Saint-Laurent) — December 3, 2021

December 3, 2021 — Mr. O'Toole (Durham) — That, given that Canada's economic and trade relations with the United States of America have deteriorated badly, and so far in 2021, Canada has seen the cancellation of the Keystone XL Pipeline, the threatened shut-down of Line 5, new Buy American rules that exclude Canada from public procurement, trade challenges on the allocation of dairy quota, a doubling of the softwood lumber tariffs, and a $12,500 tax credit for electric vehicles which excludes Canada,
the House call on the government to:
(a) abandon its "progressive trade agenda", which has proven ineffective and entirely symbolic; focus instead on Canada's trade interests, the Canada-United States security partnership and renewed cooperation;
(b) work with the United States to build a North American supply chain resilience strategy, strengthen North American industry and form a common approach towards China;
(c) develop Canada's rare earth minerals and offer them as a privileged source for North American battery and electric vehicles (EVs), in exchange for being part of the EV tax credit; and
(d) table documents related to the government's efforts to get an agreement on softwood lumber, and do so within 10 days following the adoption of this motion.
