- During question period in the House of Commons on Wednesday, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre hotly debated the country’s affordability crisis and what’s being done to make life more affordable.
Following the recent release of data about food bank usage in Canada, Poilievre asked Trudeau: “Why is it that Canadians who can't feed themselves have to keep feeding his morbidly obese government?”
Trudeau said social programs like the senior dental care plan and school lunch programs will help Canadians. However, Poilievre criticized the school lunch program, claiming zero meals have been served.
“If government programs were really going to solve the problem he caused, then why are Canadians so hungry?” Poilievre asked.
Poilievre also took aim at carbon pricing, reiterating his claims that it contributes to rising costs of living. He asked, “If it [carbon tax] gets that high and people are all starving in the streets, will that stop the forest fires?” Trudeau defended the policy, claiming rebates help Canadians while fighting climate change.

Just listening to the sound of Trudeau’s voice makes me sick
THat is how I feel about pipsqueak and his lies...you think he is gonna wave a magic wand and your miserable life will improve? PP is all about the corporations ...tax breaks for the big ceo not you ...never you ...
Name one lie that Pierre has told
Its constant and its huge and its gross like maganorth, He lied about pharmacare when he said the health minister would ban private plans.. He lies constantly about the carbon rebate. Constantly about the carbon rebate. He LIES about climate change .. He lies that the cost of goods is JT fault. He lied almost daily about Justinflation but has since stopped for somse odd reason. He lies about the amazing economic recovery we are experiencing ...Canada is NOT broken !!!!!He lied about covid restrictions. He refuses to committ to leaving womens reproductive rights alone if elected. H refuses to answer how he will handle Smith and her plan to take the lions share of CPP for Alberta. He is maganorth. He has a steady and constant smear campaign that frankly is so disgusting I bet his angry oily ways will get Justin reelected again...He is NOT good for Canada...do your civic duty and investigate for yourself before its too late.
Just listening to the sound of Pee Pee's voice makes me sick
@@ZenCorvusYikes...youve got to be kidding
People want to pay for their own children's food, NOT be dependent on government.
When Trudeau creates you a problem and now he “helps“ you to solve it. Now he is a hero.
Trudeau thinks that the government knows better than parents on how children should be raised, despicable human being, he thinks he can legislate his way out of everything but it’s his own legislation that has gotten us into this mess in the first place
i like being dependant on the government
Exactly parents want to pay for their own dental Care their own child's food they want to pay for their own kids they don't need the government the government thinks that we need them we don't, we need much less of them
100% they want us to be poor and dirty, so they can pretend they are our saviours, meanwhile they are STEALING our money, funneling it through their accounts and given us a small percentage back
If I had a penny for everytime Trudeau says " Canadians this ,Canadian that".. Listening to Trudeau just makes me more pissed off. Why can't he just resign and leave us all alone, no one wants him to lead Canada.
I wish that last bit was true. Somehow, my coworkers seem to think that Trudeau is great. They say that Poilievre has no campaign because he's had his life paid for and that makes his points irrelevant... I have no idea how they convince themselves of this, though. I am 90% sure they just want LGBTQ pushed and so they vote lib. But still, I'm worried people like them will vote lib again.
We exported almost 20 million tons of coal to China last year BUT WE PAY A CARBON TAX
Isn’t that wacked eh
I have seen the coal on trains with my own eyes. Why do we mine coal if we care about the environment? Trudeau/Singh don’t care about the environment
Conservatives support increasing export of every fossil fuel - including coal. Conservatives support polluting for free. Conservatives do not support conserving a safe climate.
"If conservatives are not in the vanguard of the environmental movement, then what are they trying to conserve? I would argue that nothing is more important for conservatives, and for anybody, than saving this fragile planet from destruction in the face of our own activities." - Tom McMillan, Environment minister under Brian Mulroney, the last Progressive Conservative PM elected by Canadians.
When the libs have admitted we could shut everything off and it wouldn't make one bit of difference.
He sends coal and money to China and other countries and we Canadians pay. Time after time.
Trudeau MUST go
absolutely
yes, and take the Turban with him!
can't be fast enough!
What the hell does child care and senior dental have to do with finding a place to live an affordable place to live and buying groceries at the grocery store? This man is so out of touch with reality. It makes my head spin. We as a country spend so much money on idea. Thinking than actual results, we need to stop with the middle man and come up with an I. Dea, that's not gonna cost an arm in a lag. And we need to stop with the Red Tape. And maybe it's not just the carbon tax. That's the problem you want to know what the real problem is when you go to work and your paycheck literally is. $200 short or even more depending on how much you make each year. Because the government is that greedy. That is what we need to be looking at is Payday tax. I know.
People that lose literally almost $2000 a month, just in taxes. Yes, they make a lot. But by the time you you bring home your wages, you don't bring home enough things. That's why people have to work 2 jobs. You shouldn't have to work 2 jobs to pay your rent and buy groceries.
He's just running parliament in circles with his talking points.
Canadians are too passive and apathetic and will accept whatever they're told to accept
Yes your right. It's astounding to me that they voted this trudeau government for 9 years.
Life is depressing, I haven't tasted steaks and other expensive meat for years. This govt has forced me to eat eggs day in and day out. Life sucks! 😢
I was wondering just how much carbon tax it will take to stop the wild fires.
So now you AND Poilievre don't believe in science? Wow, so glad I will never vote Conservative.
There are 2 carbon Taxes, maybe we need a 3rd or 4th to reduce the wildfires
@@tidbit1877you never were going to in the first place as far as fires not to many this year harder to light the matches
@@tidbit1877 why can't the same science be applied to canada as dubai? Cloud seeding can solve the wild fire issue and make it rain. Explain MR trust the science
@@tidbit1877 no one cares. We know what arson is though. GET YOUR BOOSTER! 🤣
GONNA TAX CHINA ?
PERFECTLY said!
After 9 years of this government its impressive how every single aspect of canadians lives are worse....
Our economy is better, the pandemic is nearly over, very few Canadians died and very few businesses went under. We have less inflation than most of the modern world and unemployment is fairly low. What aspects of life are you referring to?
@@tidbit1877 Economy is better? Canada is the 5th worst economy post pandemic among all 38 OCDE countries. GDP per capita, year over year declining, Productivity and Investment in Emergency levels according with BoC, not to mention we have housing crisis in record levels, affordability crisis, poverty and food bank usage increasing every day, the countrys Debt raising out of control, immigration crisis with people leaving the country in record levels. Every aspect is worse now than before 2015.
Isn't that how it's meant to be at this stage of capitalism? Do you really think conservatives will be there to hand out a universal basic income when robots start taking over many labour jobs? It's a changing time with many things changing, some you've mentioned below, that no government can stop from happening, least of all a government only focused on "traditions" or going back "to how it was".
Have you ever gone to a food bank and talked to some of these people why dont you tell them they never had it so good@tidbit1877
@@pjaworek6793 I'm guessing you have no Idea what universal income will mean. I have some important information for you not many people like to work unless they are moving forward in life. Every person I know will quit working and go on UBI as soon as it's offered. I will need you to get a job and pay taxes so I can sit at home.
Trudeau is leaving a bigger mess than Paul Martin did when he got voted out
Justin Trudeau ,you have no clue what your job is, you are bankrupting Canada ,just to buy votes , with all those freebies , cut the carbon tax ,so people can feed their families , and drive to work ,and pay their bills
you never had to pay bills, that is why you don't understand .You need to resign , you need to resign .
your government is totally dysfunctional .
If we didn't have to pay carbon tax, there would be no need for the carbon tax rebates, since the money would still be in our pockets. Does he think we're that stupid??

Why does 40 million people living in a country that is basically carbon neutral,{ with our abundant amount of trees} have to be taxed to death to clean up the pollution produced by a country with over 2 BILLION people building an average of 40 coal fired electric plants
Trudeau must stop paying criminals to start fires .
Which country has 2 billion people???
China and india. How did you not know that?!@@shaantanuasthana969
Trudumb debating affordability: Why dont they just use their trust fund.
Why would you expect someone who never worked or struggled to pay a bill to understand such things.
We Canadians demand an election as soon as possible!
How about a new system of elections to replace the undemocratic first past the post system? Ranked ballots or proportional representation? Lets see if conservatives can win a fair election and get over 50% voter support.
@@dannowak6468 Wait, so you support Trudeau? Lmfao
@@cl1489 Trudeau and the Liberals like first past the post elections. Liberals are always going to win more elections than they lose under FPTP. Conservatives cannot win under any system other than FPTP because they do not have the votes.
Justin if you are so sure you are doing such a great job , then call an election .

Blackface is simply listening to his boss. You will own nothing and be happy. Don't be surprised when it happens
Spare us the Conservative conspiracy theories, cherrypicking, and disinformation. The WEF is a forum for discussion - no decisions are taken there. The only people who should be afraid of it are people who are afraid of the exchange of ideas.
The WEF was simply summarising an essay written in 2016 by Danish politician Ida Auken titled "Welcome to 2030. I own nothing, have no privacy, and life has never been better." It described life in an unnamed city in which the narrator does not own a car, a house, any appliances, or any clothes, and instead relies on shared services for all of his daily needs. As Auken noted - she intended the essay to start discussions about technological development. She wasn't presenting a radical concept, as the principles of the sharing economy are not new, radical, or nefarious, they're an established and growing socio-economic system whereby consumers share in the creation, production, distribution, trade and consumption of goods, and services.
This is an example of how many people on the right cherrypick and distort things for ideological reasons. It's bad faith discourse. Another example is how Conservatives continually criticize Trudeau for saying "the budget will balance itself " - when Trudeau's full sentence was "the commitment needs to be a commitment to grow the economy, and the budget will balance itself." Ronald Reagan and Stephen Harper said very similar things.
drugs, inflation, medical and crime rate are out of control. Canadians have more thing to worry. Climate is not the priority.
No more carbon taxes for Canadians. It has been a nightmare to live in Canada with all these back breaking taxes and high interest rates. People care getting broke and going homeless.
Canada's carbon generation is 2%. why aren't Russia, China and the US giving us money for the pollutants they cause to Canada?
They should be debating the recent pay increase. Everyone just got in ottawa parliament , which most Canadian can never get
WE shoud discus, or make FORUM, enough of DE-BATING, and Herod on the table!
Politicians deserve the wage increases and frankly deserve even more money, we want the best of the best and you have to pay for that.
@tidbit1877 Yes, try explaining to thousands of homeless people lining up at food banks and canadians can not afford a house
@@tidbit1877, is that what you think we have?! How delusional can you get?
What about the money Ford is giving his staff he’s over paying his people
I just want to be able to afford the things I could 20 years ago when I was a dumb kid with a crappy job. I still had vehicle payments, insurance and rent. But I could afford to take my wife out for dinner and dancing a few times a month.
Daycare program is a joke. Seriously who really thinks that proper daycare will only cost $10 per day?!
Why gov run day-care..to warp children with fender bender ideology
We would not need this in school food program if this ridiculous carbon tax was not in place. Axe the tax!
well thats a suspect comment. parents are lazy.
They're going to be feeding children absolute garbage for food.
Truedope and his NDP has wrecked Canada!!
Why does Justin bother to tax us when he can simply print money (see: free government stuff)
and how does he do that?? does he have a printing press in the basement or are you just another victim of canada is broken brainwashing smear campaign
8 of 10 benefit from carbon tax. I haven’t met one and nobody else knows one either
I don't qualify for the rebate but my 21 year old daughter does and dhe doesn't have a license
I don't know anyone doing better with the rebate and we don't get one and struggle worse than ever. Canada was affordable with Harper. We're down to one meal a day with Trudeau with the cost of everything trippled I've never been so broke and miserable. Trudeau will go down in history as a two faced liar and a hypocrite .
seniors don't have teeth

The debate is over.

If it is revenue neutral, why collect at all?
F Dildeau & liberal voters
I've honestly believe that we need to BA together to get the government to put regulations around renters. And also landlords, landlords should not be allowed to charge what they're charging for rent, especially when half of these places are households and they don't even want to fix the places. I honestly believe that every landlord should have to register their apartments and then. They get audited and if they're not safe because a lot of these places that they're renting are not even illegal or they're not safe for people to be living in, they should be registered. People that are renting should have to register themselves. So that way, the government knows where they're renting and they can keep an eye on the landlords. So that way they're not price gouging people. I hear All The Time. Landlords complaining that their renters don't want to pay the rent after a month or 2. No wonder they don't want to because the rents so d*** high. Maybe if they lowered the rent, maybe they would get half decent people in there but would stay there and actually pay their rent.
Annoyingly I think this would be a provincial matter primarily though the liberals "renters rights" thing seems interesting
if 8/10 canadians are getting more money back then why can't I find even 1 who seems to? I'm in a fairly poor neighbourhood so you'd think they'd be the ones most likely to get more back
Our carbon tax is one of the highest in the world, and all it really does is export and increase emission while gutting the Canadian economy.
Foreign producers have a competitive advantage compared to local producers thanks to the carbon tax, this leads consumers to buy more imports which have more shipping emissions. The countries these products are being manufactured in don't use nearly the same amount of green energy or have any emission standards. As a result more emissions and worse emission are created in the creation of these foreign products than would have been created in Canada.
Why don’t they discuss the big pay increase they just got in April why we have people going to food banks this is just disgusting too me
Was legislated in 2004. Why are you just whining now?
@@garywagner2466 I am sorry Justin
We are 1.5% of carbon on the global scale , not even a fart in the wind.
Carbon is not pollution! It is plant food!
Children don’t purchase groceries. This is just gaslighting 101
Parents do though
@@user-wk4lc6le4r A national school food program is great but won’t bring down the cost of groceries which feeds 99% of people.
Where do you think their food comes from?
you must not have kids
@@chelseagirl278 Lol
I want to ask him how he uses carbon tax to deal with climate change. Or does he just want to collect money?
It's revenue neutral duh! It lowers the use of fossil fuels because they cost more, it isn't that hard to understand, if you had more than two brain cells anyway.
By Canadian law - all revenues from the carbon price are returned to the province in which they were raised, with 10% going into funds to help small businesses, schools, hospitals and municipal governments cut their own emissions and 90% going to families through income tax rebates.
Economists agree a price on pollution is the cheapest way to reduce emissions with the least amount of harm to the economy. The largest ever study proves that it work at lowering fossil fuel emissions growth rates. Poilievre refuses to say how he will reduce emissions at a lower cost. That's because he can't reduce emissions at a lower cost - and never intends too.
It reduces emissions because no one can afford to put fuel in their cars
@@John-ky1ry Canadians who earn less than $250,000 per year get more back in carbon rebates than they pay in carbon tax. No surprise then that Poilievre's plan to axe it - would benefit the wealthy.
As has been shown - record windfall profits by the fossil fuel industry are the main reason that gas prices are so high. You're okay with that?
Sweden's carbon tax, the highest in the world and the backbone of its climate policy, has been a resounding success - helping Sweden lower its emissions 29% since being introduced in 1991.
Lmao. I pay for carbon taxes way more than the carbon tax rebate. The inflated price of grocery, gas, utilities etc because of carbon tax are totally outweighed the few hundred dollars carbon tax rebate.
I love that PP keeps using the word Wacko to taunt the Liberals and the speaker.
It may very well please you, but all sane and smart ppl know that little pp stands with the freedum kray konvoy, so the irony is evident and apparent.
@@user-wo5ku3gi7rlmfao Justin Trudeau had a 28% approval rating.
CTV reports that our food banks are on the verge of collapsing…..
Cause a huge problem. Then boast about putting a band aid on said problem. This seems to be his plan? No plan other than more problems.
Anyone have any credible sources on what Piere's actual plans are for Canada?
All this and other media seems to like to do is put little clips in about him trash talking Justin.
That's the thing, Pierre has no platform he's just winging it.
He is waiting to release his platform closer to election time so ghe liberals don't try to steal his ideas
He does have a plan....a common sense plan. Conservatives have always been more intelligent and fiscally responsible than the Liberals. Trudeau is destroying Canada....can't you see that.
Are you saying were good with having JT as PM?
@@mountguitars Did you see this stated anywhere in my comment? Of course I don't.
But it's easy to talk a big game when the bar is so low now and most of the media tries to paint Trudeau in such a great light despite him gaslighting Canadians harder and harder each day. So, I asked where I could find credible information about what piere has planned when he inevitably becomes PM. Is it so bad I want to have an idea of what the future holds rather than own nothing and be happy?
Trudeau sounds like the typical person getting anxious because he can't produce a believable arguments. He has no real foundation for his words
I was wondering the same thing how carbon tax
This is the best question periods in the house I've seen in almost a decade! I love the way Poilievre torches Trudeau!
This guy is just clueless. A national school food program just shouldn't be necessary. I wonder why it is.
Children are going to need that school food program because their families are going to have trouble feeding them at home with the inflation on foods alone.
Canadians can't keep going on like this. Water fights forest fires, not increased carbon taxes.
I cant bear to hear any more of this seniors dental program...jesus who cares about a 75 year olds teeth?? how about young people without benefits.....
"And we will keep taxing farmers, people at the gas pump, at the grocery store and anywhere else we can" - PM JT
The carbon tax rate compared to how much carbon we produce is insane
Just got married few months ago, I’m struggling I often find myself waking up at night in a panic remembering all the struggles I’m in. I never said this out loud but I’m scared but I keep my faith in high and suppress these fears in hopes for a better change
How does dental care feed people?
He should be a spokes person for the LGBQ community
When will the Liberals answer the questions ???
I know no seniors who get dental help. Who is it for? our new canadians? No school lunches served yet
True failures did by JT!!!
After watching a bunch of U.S. politics, I am happy that at least our leaders are able to have a debate on actual issues...
Maturity!
Amen to that
Both JT and PP can talk, trump and biden can’t, simple as that
Shame Global News didn't add an extra few minutes of the conversation in which Pierre explains that it is in fact not revenue neutral.
Watching our elected officials debate( or should I say fight ?) Is like asking all these grown adults to behave and actually act on behalf of the people who elected them. So much waste and incompetence . Honesty our elected officials don't listen to anyone who says what they don't want hear. We need to take care of all Canadians as we are such a diverse and beautiful country.
Canada spent 13 billion cad on Ukraine and Los Angeles spends 17.5 billion usd to fix homelessness and made the problem worse?? How??
Being honest I'm an immigrant but still I do care for Canadians more than their local politicians. May Canada Live long❤️
Where’s my rebate ?
Energy is the foundational cost of every single good and service. When you raise the price of energy you raise the price of everything. A carbon tax is one of the most moronic policies ever created. It also solves nothing.
Pierre: in biology class I learnt this: "Photosynthesis" is a Greek word meaning "light" and "putting together." During this process, trees harness the sun's energy, using it to put carbon dioxide gas together with water to produce oxygen." So it is fair to say that carbon emissions can be controlled with reforestation not only with taxation.
We make up 2% of the whole world carbon. Why aree we paying 80% of taxes
I told you long ago give us some space to grow and put the military on it
Why is the liberal government so against giving someone on welfare the funding to get a trade to get a job in the field that they are interested in so they can get off of welfare and have a fulfilling career and a high paying job so they can succeed in life but they would rather keep them on welfare and dependent on the government but they will fund everything a foreigner wants to get a trade in, this is what the Canadian people should be fighting for
Can't wait to go steal my groceries this afternoon
I have to put on mute when Wacko J.Castro speak.
Maybe if the taxes upon taxes were taken away more families would have the money to feed their children and themselves.🤔
Why can't conservatives support better health alternatives?
How/when do Canadians get an opportunity for a change in PM?
2025 apparently.
If you don't think the NDP is part of the problem, then look at BC's housing and drug crisis.......
Whataboutisms serve Russia's borders, like BC, wery well.
The UK learned the hard way in trusting conservatives to solve their problems, let’s hope the Canadian people don’t make the same mistake.
Is there anyway we can force a vote now due to lack of confidence in Trudeaus party’s
Who exactly are these 8 out of 10 Canadians? He must mean 8 out of 10 urban liberal voters!
Did you read the description?
I did.
Three words told me not to watch the video.
"During question period".
I stopped reading and only saw a word that looked long enough to be "period" that started with the letter "p" because I had to write this.
I won't watch proceedings in the house of commons that have been directed at the public.
It's all supposed to be directed at the public, but media consumers and creators know better and cannot suggest otherwise with any credibility, in my opinion.
I was interested in what they might have to say, where they can each be sued for lying.
That is everywhere outside the house of commons.
Since they "debated" in the house of commons, I already know better than to pose as a masochist for alphabet and co.
Okay?
Cut taxes I believe citizens could spend $$ more efficiently,
Vote for Pierre
School food program is needed because the people are so over taxed that they can't afford to eat . How about we repeal the excessive taxes and the Parliamentary salaries .
Im 50 i cant find a job in windsor
Can always sell yourself 😅 jk
Love how the video cuts off right before PP calls out JT for lying about the carbon pricing being revenue neutral. ACTUALLY, the government has made 2Billion on carbon taxes. Where’s the money?
Bring it home 🏡
Yup
Do you Canadians need help impeaching your prime minister?
Sincerely from you American neighbor
my staple food is now eggs, and no more steaks, pork and other expensive meats. Eggs 3x a day😢
I am so sorry 😞
I cant lie im actually hungry right now
Spot on the carbon tax is a money grab!
Wacko to jail.
Why are Canadians hungry?
Because of cooperate greed and capitalism. The People struggling have not seen wages go up, while the big grocery stores that collude with each other to collectively raise prices. (Something neither the Conservatives, nor the Liberals have really done anything about) Carbon pricing is insignificant increase in the price compared to the alternative (doing nothing) which we know leads to worse wildfires and droughts... that will have detrimental effects on food & water supply, as well as housing and insurance costs.
It's something that both climate scientists and economist both agree on.
the carbon rebate was $245.00 which doesn't seem like a lot .. it will only pay my hydro bill..
were on a rocky road which is going to get worse, stock up on survival items, this is not going to end well!
I absolutely love this comment section. Lets stand together and end this disaster like Sophie did!
Who said when to applaud when Trudeau talk when Guilbault touch his glass 🍷?
99% of canadians have no idea what's going on so surveys don't tell you much.
SPEND, SPEND, SPEND - TAX, TAX, TAX The most expensive Government in Canadian history, Accumulating more debt in 9 years than all other governments in History COMBINED! 1 Billion Taxpayer dollars a week to service our current Federal Debt, that is 52 Billion a year which is more than Federal Health Care transfers to provinces. Now they intend to add another 60 Billion in new spending in 2024, all while they kill the middle class, doctors, veterinarians, dentists & chiropractors with their 67% Tax on small Business! Imagine not qualifying for UI, CPP, OAS even if you wished to, and then the only avenue to retirement allowed by the government is set to be destroyed by Communist levels of Capital Gains.... There is no Generational Fairness in taking 67% retirement funds from a Canadian who worked 40 years to accumulate wealth while still paying 30+% on savings and earnings in taxes , the then give this wealth to someone who potentially has not worked a day in their life!
