Prime Minister Justin Trudeau appears as a witness via videoconference during a House of Commons finance committee in the Wellington Building on Thursday, July 30, 2020. The committee is looking into Government Spending, WE Charity and the Canada Student Service Grant.
Tuesday will be the Conservatives’ first opposition day of the session, and Conservative Leader Erin O'Toole and his caucus have given notice they may be looking to force a vote on a proposal to create a new larger-than-usual parliamentary anti-corruption committee. The committee would take over investigating the WE Charity controversy as well as other lines of inquiry into alleged Liberal scandals and potential conflicts of interest.
On Monday morning, Conservative MP Pierre Poilievre said that the Conservatives “will not relent,” and questioned why the Liberals appear willing to make this vote a confidence matter.
Have an election!!!
Oh hi
Anything to avoid answering any tough questions, hypocrisy = Liberals
This Liberal government is the most corrupt and the worst in Canadian history led by a HORRIBLE PM. Liberals must go and shame on anyone who still supports them.
Good, let’s go!
It should.
What the 💩is Trudeau talking about.
Lol, yup! Justin needs to go!
LMFAO!!!! Anti-corruption committee? The whole political system is rotten to the core - even the media!
JT is in the same group as Hillary and Biden. Selling us out. CCP Cuck.
TrudeauCorruption
So What? Everyone's lost any bit of confidence they had; which for some of us was ZILCH!!!
There has been confidence implications for several years now from the Canadian public but the government chooses to ignore them.
Of course the most corrupt governement party is making excuses to not create an anti-corruption committee. They know they would keep that committee working overtime. TrudeauCorruption TrudeauCrimeMinister TrudeauWorstPMEverPM
If the opposition calls a non confidence vote right now, they're proving they don't care about the welfare of Canadians and only care about grabbing power at all costs... Literally ALL costs.
I find that the vast majority of commenters who only read the headline and don't have a fucking clue about our political system and what confidence is absolutely hilarious. Of course they are all Cons, ignorance is a lifestyle
Canadians elected these assholes. Garbage in....garbage out.
That’s because there is no confidence in you JustinTrudeau.
How about not doing unethical/criminal behavior in the first place. Maybe that would raise the confidence of the people.
I never had confidence in our Prime Idiot. Unfortunate thing is that the other two major parties are so bloody stupid it would be hard to vote for either of them either.
Obviously investigating his corruption will have confidence implications lol.
Funny how the open liberal government wants to hide the truth and is willing to use any method or technical way out of Canadians finding out the unvarnished truth. However don’t forget the NDP is the party that propped the PM up inspire of his racist behaviour and corruption
Of course he will say this, he will sell his kids on the black market before he releases these WeScam documents. He would prefer to roll the dice and call an election so be it. His NDP bff’s will be lucky to get a single seat. Go ahead Screwdeau we dare you.
Well yes, the implication would be that Canadians have so little confidence in the Trudeau 'government' that they feel unprecedented oversight is warranted.
There is already a trust deficit with this Liberal group. What does he expect? He wants the confidence of parliament or the Canadian public then look in a mirror and change your corrupt ways.
FFS Canadians have zero confidence in the liberal_party. The thought of an Anti-Corruption committee is rattling SkippyDoolittle WEscandal TrudeauWorstPMEver
What are they so afraid of?
Good. Rip off that bandaid and let’s see what the people really want as a government now.
Look in Ontario. $8 Billion lost in eHealth Ontario and the people behind the scandal still working for the government. Time for a closer look at the boards of directors that keep selecting them ONgov OntarioHealthOH patientombuds JohnTory theresaboyle drmwarner drbobbell
Ya but the conservatives wont give up even if they are told its dead in the water, the committee has no confidence in going forward or their just plain stupid.
THIS LIBERAL GOVERNMENT IS THE MOST CORRUPT GOVERNMENT IN CANADIAN HISTORY
Bring it on, time for TrudeauWorstPMEver to go!!
The Liberals lack of confidence just demonstrates they have a lot to hide.
We the people want a transparent government!
Of course this committee would still be around when and if the cons took office right. Maybe it could also look into a few current cons also were questions need to be answered.
the tax payers don't have confidence in our government!
We already lost confidence in the FireTrudeau government
What an idiot. If there's nothing to hide and there's no corruption, then why not have an anti-corruption committee? It holds everyone accountable and ensures government follows the law of the land. Yes, including Trudeau. Go figure. liberal_party cdnpoli
People say creation of anti-lies committee would be good for exposing the hypocrisy of CTV News. 🥸
First, second, third time is the charm
Um, Ya, of course if the government is proven corrupt, it should cause confidence concerns. Authorize the committee and see if it is true or just politics br the PC's
As per PierrePoilievre these docs are well within the rules of the house. So why bitch now? Oh, to look important when the cons aren't even close to that. Best 54 seconds of your day right here. Click away
How does the gov have the power to stop an investigation? This is absurd.
And Canadians have zero confidence in liberal_party of Canada with their attempts hiding EVERYTHING under the Covid19 emergency measures. Optics is everything
“The lady doth protests too much, methinks”
It might prevent Trudeau's government from operating in the manner they have grown accustomed to.
As it should since we have no confidence in the corrupt Liberal government and their cohorts the NDP.
In your coverage of this story, you forgot (again) to give context to PierrePoilievre's little speech. Pierre was caught cheating in the 2015 election. One that account, he has little credibility pontificating about ethics to Canadians.cdnmedia cdnpoli
Crooks always try to hide behind continual denial and deflection.
Yeah the more Canadians know about JustinTrudeau liberal_party corruption, the lest confidence they will have in our government.
Quite the opposite actually.
More Liberal Bullshite
Ya as in NO confidence
Because we would discover the Crime Minister’s illegal activities - HE’S creating the CRISIS OF CONFIDENCE...!!!!
Why are the Liberals scared of looking into their own corruption unless there's something to hide
Yes, Justin, we already have confidence that you're corrupt; the purpose of an anti-corruption committee is to end corruption.
They lost the onfidence of the majority of Canadians long ago Forget the opposition They did an end run around the very institutions of government that serve as a safety check for taxpayers The Ethics Commissioner, PBO, Auditor General, Commons Law Office amongst others
Confidence in not being able to get away with their corruption with out getting caught?
I have full confidence in an anti-corruption commission if lead by Poilievre.
These corrupt lying liberals need to be fully investigated and charged criminally. Enough is enough.
If they have nothing to hide should be no problem
Nothing wrong with “confidence implication”
ironic
Cabinet confidentiality is not to be used as an excuse to cover up criminal activity.
No...it would just ensure we had confidence!
Call their bluff, if they make it a confidence issue then kill this government, they've been worthless anyways. Of course. Of course the NDP is broke and likely to lose all of their seats to the Libs, so there's that.
What does it matter if JustinTrudeau will redact documents? or
So be it.
