Mulcair is correct. Fergus should step down.
Fergus already got his one pass on his bias. This time he needs to resign
Hear Hear !!!
Here hear!!!
Here here 🙌
And how come Trudeau was able to call Poilievre "spineless" and not have to retract the statement.
Also the NDP have already levied the same insults at Pierre and his party without being reprimanded for it.
Blatant bias
@Moby-fp2nzback that up. You do what Trudeau tells you to cuz you are not willing to think for yourself.
One of the two too spineless to call an election
Because everyone represents Trudeau and bends the rules. Dictatorship at its finest
@Moby-fp2nz spineless? He neuters Trudeau easily and often. Sends the bytch running from the house
Fergus is the worst Speaker ever. What a joke he is !!!
DEI? and I am Jamaican born and a person of colour. so back off Racists.
I AGREE with you 10)0000000000000000000%
It is a joke ,,who pick him to be house speaker 😡😡who?????
Trudeau@@stk6755
2nd worst behind thomas bain
It nicely complements the worst PM ever, don't you think?
All their careers are on borrowed time at this point. Soon it will be spring cleaning in Ottawa.
Resign Fergus
Fergus should be removed. Plain and simple.
I disagree he was being completely neutral Pierre should have simply withdrawn the statement you have to respect the authority of the chair.
WAHHHHHHH FREEDUMBBBBB
@@thesunmanhe literally used the word withdraw. To not allow him to replace the word is a major power trip. He would not have acted the same way with the prime minister. Not a chance
An NDP member used the word wacko in 2022 and never got booted out
I suspect when asked to rephrase it they NDP MP did so, Pierre was asked to rephrase his words to not be insulting twice refused to do so. He wasn't kicked out for calling Trudeau a wacko, he was kicked out for repeatedly refusing to accept the Speakers Authority. Context matters.
@@gyorgyor7765 Pierre did rephrase it and called him an extremist instead, try to keep up junior.
@@gyorgyor7765The Speaker overreached and demanded NOT a rephrase, but a COMPLETE RETRACTION of the statement despite the leader of the opposition offering various satisfactory alternatives.
@@gyorgyor7765 You def are not born and raised here! Lmao!
@gyorgyor7765 he was kicked out after retracting and replacing the word...facts matter.
Greg Fergus has zero credibility and can no longer be trusted as speaker of the house. He should step down now.
Diversity hire.
DEI hires can’t be trusted from the outset.
You guys have no idea what you're talking about. You simply repeat what your wonder boy Poilievre says and can't think for yourselves.
@@rickbaker8188 Sure, whatever you say Ricky.
Its very rare that I agree with NDP Tom Mulcair but that's politics for you.
@@296801 Does that really matter? Fergus has done a poor job as speaker and that is where the focus should be.
The Speaker has to step down because he is biased!
💯 biased
💯
Conservatives support cancel culture now? 😂
And a chimpanzee
He won't but you are 💯right.
Fregus you need to RESIGN.
It only makes Pollievre even more popular since he obviously made a factual statement.
no it doesn't
Yes it does Corky.....
get lost your opinion means nothing
get lost, your opinions mean nothong
@@GPz84 No it doesn’t Lionel.
He's not fit for the job
Do you mean corrupt Trudeau , Fergus , Arif Virani , MacKinnon or all the Liberals ?
.
who?
@@siycles Greg Fergus who else lol
Never liked the platypus
As a DEI employee, being capable for a job isn’t a requirement.
He needs to be removed
Yup... Fergus is proving to be a baffoon. PP played him like a fiddle.
Our Leader of the Opposition, Pierre Poiievre, represents a significant voice of the Canadian population and is a key figure In our democratic process. Not only was Poilievre treated with disrespect yesterday, millions of Canadians who support him were denied their voice in the House of Commons by a blatant partisan Speaker of the House.
Trudeau is much worse than just a “wacko”
He need to resign
While I'm no NDP fan, I must concede that Tom Mulcair consistently preaches wisdom.
He’s one of the few voices of reason in a wilderness of insanity.
Fergus is a lackey to JT. He does what he is told by his boss.
Of course. You can't go against the Furher.
Remember that cringe wink Trudeau gave him when he was elected speaker?
Such tired tropes.
Fergus is a wacko. Same as the PM.
Mulcair I am not a fan of yours but you've impressed me with this one. Thank You.
Fergus is finished step-down now.
Agreed!!! Fergus must step down and Trudeau must go now and let the real men step up and run our country..
you want Trudeau to go now.. then you get Liberal Gov for another 4 years... but thats probably what you want right.
@@CryptoActivator No. They're saying they agree with a former leader of the federal NDP. That's what they're saying.
Bring it home!
@@CryptoActivator hell nah they aint winning, most dislike them.
who's that
Mulcair makes sense.
I wish NDP nowadays was an independent party with a spine instead of just being an extension to LPC.
NDP has never really had a political chance of leading the country. Wish Poilievre would develop a spine and use diplomacy instead of more blame and aggression.
Tom Mulcair is right on. How can the speaker continue any longer?
I agree with polievre I have been a paramedic for 15 years and the amount is drug death is heart breaking . We need to change course too many are dying and to expelled for saying this is childish
Ending “safe supply” would result in a lot more death given the extent of the contaminated street supply.
As for prison time, meh. It’s fair to call for it. It’s another to cost it all out and highlight the cost of building more jails, hiring more bureaucracy and hiring more judges and staff to process the cases faster and clear backlogs.
Only when you have the full costs can a full discussion be had. Otherwise, it’s just virtue signalling.
@@McLovin1759end safe supply and let nature sort itself out. Simple.
@@McLovin1759 its a self correcting problem, Liberals need to get the hell out of the way,
@@McLovin1759 Clueless..did you even hear the reports coming out of BC? Get informed.
@@peteenns67 I have said that for years .Eventually we will run out of Customers.
This liveral gov has destroyed CANADA
Give me a break. The same whining was going in about Harper.
Poilirvre needs to offer a real, levelheaded alternative to be taken seriously.
Diplomacy, not just doubling doen aggressively.
the speaker of the house needs to be retired asap....very highhanded and disgusting
The speaker is suppose to be non bias he definitely sides with the liberals. The PM called Canadians all kinds of names and that is ok???
What kind of names?
@@Ketowskitwo that come to mind: racist and misogynists... there are many more.
This guy has shown blatant favoritism several times now. Apologized & excused from responsibility twice. This is the 3rd time. 3 strikes yer out !!!
Canadian parliament is a clown show
Then run for office.
It’s what happens when a government is going downhill. Trudeau is gonna spectacularly destroy the Liberal party.
He absolutely did. Fergus should step down just like his predecessor.
Then Trudeau should take a walk in the snow.
Thank you Tom You r absolutely correct and non biased
The speaker did the same thing to MP Thomas. Both she and Pierre withdrew and the speaker went full partisan.
I rarely agree with Tom, but he is bang on.
He SHOULD be replaced, but there's nobody in the Liberal Party who would be suitable for the job.
So Cons have destroyed the Canadian government and they haven't even gotten in yet?
Exactly. Replace him with a competent non-liberal
The speaker doesn't have to be liberal!
The King should fire him and dissolve this parliament. Why do we keep these Crown prerogatives on the books if we aren't ever going to use them?
@@peteenns67 Who selects the speaker?
In my opinion, the common denominator in EVERY scandal is Trudeau! Everything falls on his doorstep, every time!
Wacko is polite compared to what most Canadians call him and his minion
Fergus not only should resign but he should be 'walked out' of the building by security as is done in the private sector.
Justin's bus is pretty big. There's plenty of room under there for Fergus too.
He should stepdown!
Pierre = Common Sense, Justin = Wacko... 🙀🙀🙀
The fact that even this guy is saying Piere being ejected was wrong just shows how absurd our government has become.
This speaker needs to resign, but won't until Piere is PM. Get out and vote. Bring our country back. Hope Ontario and Quebec make the right choice. We voted for this, we can vote ourselves out.
He has to step down
Wow Tom defending Pierre just wow
Fergus is sooooooo partisan. Its blantant, like hes not even trying to be honest. That job came with so many strings attached.
What do you think about Trudeau's reaction and expressions when they dragged Fergus into the house that day, Trudeau SMILING( from ear to ear), WINKING, giving Fergus the TONGUE, Fergus is doing the JOB Trudeau put him there to do, and he should be REMOVED,💯⚠️🐀🐀🐀'S⚠️💯
I had forgotten about all of that.
Justin trudeau needs to get go now!
Fergus is was a joke always has....massive ego...wako fergus!!! Lol
Fergus Resign...
I'd like to see the swear book of unparllamentary language. "Wacko" is there but "spineless" is not?
He needs to go.
Greg Fergus should be fired immediately but won't.
Kind of sad when Mulclair is a voice of reason for these days considering he is NDP.
The NDP seemed so moderate when he was their leader compared to now.
I finally agree with Munclair
I’m old enough to remember when Trudeau called Peter Kent a piece of Sh***. But wacko is suddenly unparliamentary? Give me a break…
Yet Fergus stays !
Canadian politics is Done !
We need an independent party ! One that is actually for Canada !
Thank you, Tom!
Face it guys the Liberals will replace him with another stooge. None of this matters.
when he made a mistake last time, we gave him a chance. not this time. he must go!
He had a post it note on the document he picked up to read expelling Pollieve !! It’s like he was looking for a way to read that from his notes
OH Absolutely ! When i saw he was becoming
Speaker of the House of Commons of Canada , i was shocked , exactly for that reason
Fergus must resign !
Fergus should be disqualified!!!
This was very unprofessional
Nobody is going to respect Fergus again, he should step down
wow, Singh agreed with the budget...big suprise
YES common sense is not surprising
@@philster6383you like higher taxes, spending MORE then you have?!
He needs his pension
@@kaneox123 LMAO sure PP is going to lower taxes and balance the budget. Tell me what programs is he going to cut........ NO answer because PP is all slogans and NO policies
@@philster6383 they've tanked your country. be angry about it.
Agree!
Should be fired
His majesty doesn't rule Canada anymore. That whole court system is trash.
Sadly there is no other party that will support the conservatives in asking for the speaker to be investigated for his conduct yesterday.
Corruption is real and we're all awake to witness it.
Mulclair deserves a lot of respect for all his hard work.
Fergus is deeply unfit for the job.
You know you messed up when even the former NDP leader calls you out…
Speaker Greg Fergus should step down, but at the very least, apologize.
Fergus is not acting as the speaker of the house, he is the speaker of the Liberal Patty/NDP.
Is this silent Canadian racism being expressed here?
I'll never vote NDP but I really like Tom Mulcair
If they don't think the Canadian public sees this partisanship from Ferguson, they're wrong. He needs to step down.
Time to go. Obviously he cannot be impartial
Bien dit Monsieur Mulcaire! Nice to see someone in Ottawa call a spade a spade. 🇨🇦
Only the speaker has the authority to enforce the standing orders.
Why should he resign for doing his duties?
If members want to oust him, they can bring a motion to the floor.
This is how the HOC works in a democracy.
Sure it has never happened before.
Canada has never ever had a "leader" like this one before. 😢
Pierre Poilievre should not apologize to the Liberals and NDP governments. How disgusting of this Waco prime Minister and his goones. It's okay for Trudeau to call Pierre Spineless??. Sickening.
Why was MP Rachael Thomas kicked out? The speaker asked her to withdraw her statement. She replied, “Mr. Speaker, I stated that the Chair is acting in a disgraceful manner, I withdraw”. Yet, Fergus kicked her out
DEI
Canada is officially a banana republic
Fergus is a Liberal/ NDP supporter which is not his posting. Fergus should " Step down " as Mulcair suggests!
The speaker shouldn't be allowed to mute the microphones
Step down fergus!
Corrupt much? Rosemary’s baby doing his job
You should’ve said “criminally”wrong for what he’s done to Canada 🇨🇦
I think the role of speaker is of such importantce, that merely the perception of bias should be sufficient for the speaker to relinquish their post. I think somebody who shared this respect of the position would agree with this and would have willingly surrendered the position already
The Clown Show of Canadian parliament goes on. No decisions made. Back and to banter. .. Pathetic !
The Canadian government in entirety should quit. Time to go back to just local governments taking care of local issues. Canada has fallen as a country, its one giant joke and a bad one at that
it gets even worse when you find out someone changed the blues to defend Fergus, smells like corruption to me
Mr. Fergus seemed to have the ejection document awfully close and handy for something that has never been done before. And with a post-it on it no less
Fergus is not fit for the job and should step down.
This is just another example of why the position of speaker should not come from any party but instead be a paid non-partisan position of someone of stellar integrity.
Well said Tom!
To me there is a clear distinction between "spineless" and "wacko". The latter is a direct slight at the Canadians suffering from mental health issues. And the fact that we're even talking about this because this is the level of debate we've all been dragged into by Poilievre and his posse says something about our collective mental health. It's all very sad.
