http://www.ourhometown.ca/news/lauzon/ Guy Lauzon is the Member of Parliament for Stormont-Dundas-South Glengarry. Mr. Lauzon was first elected to the House of Commons in June of 2004 and is currently the Caucus Chair for the Conservative Party of Canada http://www.ourhometown.ca/news/NL1776.phphttp://www.ourhometown.ca/news/NL1776.phpOne of my Caucus colleagues started a recent blog post wisely using the famous Winston Churchill quote: “A lie gets halfway around the world before the truth has a chance to get its pants on”. Every few weeks, my office receives emails and phone calls from constituents who have heard about “Bill C-428”, a Liberal Private Members Bill to amend the Old Age Security Act to reduce the residency requirement and allow newcomers to receive OAS after just 3 years in Canada.

I am still not sure what is meant by this term but, I can tell you I have been out and about since the beginning of July and the only BBQ I attended was our own SDSG Constituency Picnic. I have attended events throughout the riding including seven Canada Day celebrations, the Highland Games, numerous Fairs, sports tournaments, and many other events.

Last week Justin Trudeau, the Leader of the Liberal Party, made his first policy announcement that marijuana should be legalized in Canada. When reporters asked if he was in favour of decriminalizing marijuana Trudeau said "I am actually not in favour of decriminalizing cannabis. I am in favour of legalizing it".

Many Canadian seniors are benefiting from worldwide advances in health, fitness and science, and as a result they are living longer, healthier lives. One senior observed eighty years old is the new sixty years old.

As a matter of fact, much has been said and written to me about this topic by the constituents in Stormont, Dundas, and South Glengarry. My experience as an MP over the past 9 years convinces me that the vast number of constituents in SD&SG are honest, hardworking and very politically informed. That is why many of you are so disappointed with recent developments in Canada's Senate.

One of our country's greatest resources is our fertile soil. We are also fortunate to enjoy a climate that allows us to be a world leader in the production and quality of our agricultural products. Canadian agricultural products are known around the world as being of the highest quality. The safety of our agricultural products is second to none. Wed, 30 May 2012 00:31:27 +0000
