Witness all the action in the House of Commons when Canada’s elected officials meet daily to debate the issues. The government and Opposition exchange questions and answers on how the country is being run and what issues are pressing the political agenda.

Bloc Québécois Leader Yves-François Blanchet says his party is once again pushing legislation in the House of Commons to increase Old Age Security benefits for people aged 65 to 74 and to raise the income exemption for the Guaranteed Income Supplement. The Bloc cites inflation and fairness for seniors as justification for the move, while the federal government has so far opposed the proposal. The measure, which is expected to cost several billion dollars, will be debated in the House. Blanchet is joined by MPs Claude DeBellefeuille and Andréanne Larouche. Kyle Seeback, the Conservative critic for labour, and Arpan Khanna, the party’s national outreach chair, urge the Liberal government to help laid-off General Motors workers in Ingersoll, Ontario. The news conference comes one day after Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre sent a letter to Finance Minister François-Philippe Champagne calling for reduced taxes on the workers’ severances packages. Members of the Land Claims Agreements Coalition call on all political parties to support Bill C-10, the government’s bill to establish a commissioner for modern treaty implementation. The legislation, which was co-developed with Indigenous treaty partners, is currently at second reading in the House of Commons.
