Peace River – Westlock MP Arnold Viersen is eager to help promote Conservative policies as the fall session of Parliament resumed Sept. 15 in the House of Commons.
As the Official Opposition, the Conservatives are ready to deal will decisions made by the Liberal government in the past several years, he writes in a news release Sept. 15.
“While it has been a busy summer with constituents and hearing their concerns, I am excited to be back in Parliament so we can get results for Canadians and undo the damage of the past 10 years,” Viersen says.
“Conservatives will continue to oppose what is wrong, to expose what is hidden and to propose what is in the national interest.”
He adds the Conservatives have several top issues to push.
“Our priorities for the fall session are the Liberal cost-of-living crisis, the Liberal job-loss crisis, the Liberal crime crisis and the Liberal immigration crisis,” Viersen says.
“Canada’s Conservatives want a safe and affordable country like we had before the Liberal government.
“Our goal is to bring down costs, lock up criminals, hit the brakes on immigration, get shovels digging and deliver paycheques in pockets.”
The Conservatives will also propose solutions to problems caused by the Liberal government, he says. It can be accomplished by:
-Building a stronger take-home pay with lower costs and more jobs.
-Creating safe streets by locking up the criminals Liberals have let loose.
-Securing borders by hitting the brakes on immigration and ending the wage-suppressing, job- killing Temporary Foreign Worker program to put Canadian workers first.
-Establishing a self-reliant Canada through the Canadian Sovereignty Act, which will open Canada for business, cut taxes and government approval times on building pipelines, power lines, rail lines, liquefied natural gas and nuclear plants, homes and more.
