I know this dismissal comes as a disappointment to Kanata residents—many of whom were hoping that the Supreme Court would provide final arbitration and prevent ClubLink’s development of our cherished greenspace. I share in this disappointment.

Today, Jenna Sudds, Parliamentary Secretary for Women, Gender Equality and Youth, announced $100,000 in funding to MAX Ottawa, a community-based organization focused on the health of gay and bisexual men.

This funding is being provided through the HIV and Hepatitis C Community Action Fund to help those currently most impacted by the outbreak of MPOX.

Electric vehicles make a lot of economic sense, and can end up being less expensive than comparable gas powered vehicles. Canadian companies that specialize in EV batteries can repurpose and recycle 95% of the battery components today.

Jenna Sudds, Member of Parliament for Kanata—Carleton announced a non-repayable contribution of $10 million for Ontario Bioscience Innovation Organization (OBIO) to expand the Early Adopter Health Network (EAHN) program, through the Jobs and Growth Fund.

Reporting to the Office Manager, the constituency assistant focuses on supporting the residents of Kanata—Carleton, namely assisting with immigration and passport issues.

Jobs are plentiful, unemployment is at record lows, yet Canadians are still finding it hard to pay their bills at the end of the month. Inflation has been a major aftershock from the pandemic.

When filling up the tank with gas, buying groceries, or paying rent, the cost of living is up and it’s a real challenge for residents.

I’d like to start by expressing my deep gratitude to the teams at Hydro Ottawa, Hydro One, out of town crews, first responders, City of Ottawa staff, and the many community groups and volunteers who have helped restore safety and power in our communities following the unprecedented storm on May 21st.

As of new reports, less than 10% of departing passengers at Pearson are waiting for more than 15 minutes, compared to 23% in early May.

As Canadians watch the ideological backsliding of the United States’ once-enshrined reproductive rights, we now hold two moral obligations: to become a country of medical refuge for women in need of an abortion; and to ensure the same erosion of fundamental bodily autonomy never finds its way onto our country’s legislative or judicial agenda.

Jobs are plentiful, unemployment is at record lows, yet Canadians are still finding it hard to pay their bills at the end of the month. Inflation has been a major aftershock from the pandemic.

As we commemorate the one-year anniversary of the London attack and the five-year anniversary of the Québec Mosque shooting, the urgency for our government to take further actions to combat hate and all forms of racism is evident.

On March 28, 2022, our government announced an agreement with the Province of Ontario that will deliver high-quality, affordable, flexible and inclusive child care for families.

Since then, Ontario is still in the process of developing their provincial childcare system and will be implementing it through their municipalities.

To address rising handgun violence, our government is implementing a national freeze on handguns to prevent individuals from bringing newly acquired handguns into Canada and from buying, selling, and transferring handguns within the country.

“Politicians aren’t the only community members who can demonstrate the kind of leadership that comes with taking an active part in the Run, adds Jenna Sudds, Member of Parliament for Kanata-Carleton, and another avid participant and captain in the annual Run for Women.”

While the progress we have made and witnessed to date on lowering prices is encouraging, more needs to be done. Canadians still pay too much for their Internet and cellphone services.

The Honourable Marci Ien, Minister for Women and Gender Equality and Youth, and Parliamentary Secretary Jenna Sudds issued the following statement today:
