Finally Members of Parliament have returned to Ottawa.
For members of the Opposition it also a time to become familiar with what our critic roles will be to kick off this new parliament. I am pleased to announce that the entire Okanagan region will be well represented with prominent critic roles: Conservative MP Mel Arnold (North Okanagan—Shuswap, British Columbia), Critic for Fisheries, Oceans and the Canadian Coast Guard. Conservative MP Tracy Gray (Kelowna—Lake Country, British Columbia), Critic for Interprovincial Trade NDP MP Richard Cannings (South Okanagan—West Kootenay), Critic for Natural Resources My new portfolio will be the Conservative critic of Employment, Workforce Development and Disability Inclusion. As critics, it is part of our job to hold the government to account. It is also our responsibility to not just oppose but also to propose policy and solutions that we believe can be of benefit to the citizens that we are elected to serve. The Governor General will deliver the Prime Minister's Throne Speech outlining the priorities of the Liberal minority government in the upcoming Parliament. This leads me to my question this week. What is the one issue that you most want to see referenced in this week’s Throne Speech as a priority of the Federal Government? I can be reached at Dan.Albas@parl.gc.ca or call toll free 1-888-665-8711.
