Dominic Leblanc is the Minister of Public Safety. Jennifer O'Connell is the Parliamentary Secretary of Public Safety. Why is this guy, the Parliamentary Secretary of Health on TV answering questions about ArriveCan and CBSA corruption? Where is LeBlanc or O'Connell. We want to see the Minister who is in charge of Public Safety to answer questions about this theft of our money and charter violations of our rights.
This is a typical Liberal ploy. No Liberal cabinet minister ever answers for their department. Instead some other minister who is not responsible makes a statement that they can then deny carries any weight on the grounds that the guy didn't represent the department. It is pathetic, but then Trudeau is pathetic, as is his cabinet.
Everyone who works in consulting knows the unethical practices that come with it. Whoever involved in the ArriveCan project did this at the highest level.
A laughing stock of the Developed Countries. This kind of liberal government scandals mostly only happens in a developing countries like Philippines with Marcoses government a father and son.
Dominic Le Blanc asked after his ethics conviction "I wish someone could tell me what I did wrong" Idiocy is acceptable in politics but not outright denial.
One question to this guy - what's the point of putting more stringent requirements in place when nobody in 3 departments were following the original requirements?!
I heard "we needed to line our friends companies pockets, at a time that no one was looking, and in hind sight we were hoping you would never notice... our bad". "From now on we will only use your tax payer money to bail out our friends companies, so that we can buy votes in places that ensure we can continue to feed at the trough."
So, the app which recorded your every move, and reported to the authorities when it thought you were doing wrong, was somehow nefarious? No waayyyy. Btw, what happened to all the data? Who was that sold to?
I want a refund because I never traveled out of the country or used this stupid app. Top down corruption can't be stopped even if you supposedly put more rules and regs because nobody follows them or won't report those who are not complying.
"Jimmy Mcjuggernuts": as Clyde calls him, is just riding along, trying not to make too many waves, he has a job that he has to do nothing for, and if he can keep his place for a few more months, he will collect a pension that would choke a horse. Nothing he has to say is of any importance anyhow, He is another one who is not concerned about Canada or Canadians, He is repeating words that have been prepared for him, he too is a Flake! Can his sorry ass as well!
It appears gov't representatives have either committed fraud (by mislabeling personal expenses as business expenses) or bribery (giving money to consultants / contractors with no deliverables). It is absolutely illegal and the MPs involved must be trialed in a court of law. If I did this at my place of work I would be in jail. Are public servants above the law?
it was improper, the firms cant show the goods, get the money back, who signed of on those payments and did they get some kick backs, it needs to be investigated. follow the money! RCMP
Great job, Vassy! It's crucial for accountability and clarity that responses to questions are addressed clearly without repeating the same answer repeatedly.
“We are going to take the recommendations of AG to ensure it won’t happen again”. The current rules weren’t followed, why would new rules make a difference.
Happen again ??????????? Such a pathetic response with respect to being responsible from the outset ! Canadians are paying for these atrocities! WE can't TRUST this Govt. and haven't been able to from their inception !! They've never protected our Values nor our safety ! How egregiously inept .. Intendedly!

You've lived in Canada at the absolute worst time. JT was elected 8 years ago. Canada was a great country until the Liberals took power and ruined this country
Ya she is one of the best in main stream but even she is very biased in a lot of her interviews witch I think is just her boss telling her to toe the line it's very very sad
When anyone one says “they’re working very hard” you know they’re full of it. It’s a dead giveaway. Hard work is seen and all we see is them making money disappear into the abyss of non-traceable corruption.
Pierre Poilievre is right. How is it that over 100k extra employees added to the public dime (tax paid) employees) and the government still needed to go outside to create an app?
CBSA learned its lesson, the public was protected, the federal government worked hard, no one was punished, and again everyone won except the hapless taxpayers.
THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO EXCUSE FOR A 60 MILLION DOLLAR THEFT OF OUR MONEY...IF ANYONE DID THIS IN PRIVATE SECTOR THEY WOULD ALL BE IN JAIL...SO MY QUESTION IS...WHERE IS THE COPS IN ALL THIS???? ABSURD!!!!
Who is going to jail? Who cares about human resources? You guys didn't do your job to begin with. Where is the auditor This should have been audited every year.
this is horrible waste of money by the Federal Liberal Government supported by NDP and BLOC. we've all lost significant amounts of money at the hands of the Liberals NDP and BLOC! it's time to end these constant scandals and overspending and outright theft from the taxpayers.
An emergency is not a valid reason to let loose existing Policy & Practices .... it is a time of Super Diligence. Pure Incompetence by all working on ArriveCan.
Excuse after excuse....typical liberal government
It's disturbing to know that the government of Canada is a criminal organization.
Vassi, you failed to ask a very important question: Is the stolen/wasted money going to be returned to the Canadian tax payers?
because she also got some of our money to shut her mouth.
No, they will try to do better next time is always their response. Or blame Harper and Pierre.
You don’t really think that would happen do you?
It’s because she knows the answer is no. The liberals don’t want to even acknowledge that they are ultimately responsible
Vassy is liberal, what do you expect?
The pressures and speed with which the government was expected to act was self imposed in my opinion. There's no excuse for this, it's an absolute disgrace. They... are... a... disgrace. Just to be very clear.
Right, self imposed pressure. 🤔 No pressure from the public or truckers to open the border 😂🤣😂

That was before. Now it's becoming demonstrably criminal as well.
Liberals and NDP went out of their way to shut this down in committee,Liberals were supposed to have oversight for this spending and failed miserably
The shutdowns were imposed by premiers, including the 7 Tory ones in 2020.

Both health and CBSA had equal hands in developing the arrivescam app
Everyone who works in consulting knows the unethical practices that come with it. Whoever involved in the ArriveCan project did this at the highest level.
Yes. This was no accident or mismanagement. The Liberals must be forced to give back the money they stole or face jail
Wow! What an amazing world salad. The liberals are amazing at empty language.
Newspeak
They chose this minister to be the spokesman for this issue since Indians are shameless.
Money laundering 101
Yes! Follow the money and make arrests
How much money made its way back into Liberal pockets?
Stevo you r 100 percent correct
You too Mike
kickbacks 101
The rules are aleady in place. There are no lessons to learn. It is the Law and the RCMP need to do their job.
If all else fails, blame Covid. If that doesn't work, blame Harper.
Lather rinse repeat
Trudeau MUST GO. Jail with no bail
I want ppl in jail for this fraud
This country has become a joke.
The real Joke is that these slimy Liberals are getting away with all this !
A laughing stock of the Developed Countries. This kind of liberal government scandals mostly only happens in a developing countries like Philippines with Marcoses government a father and son.
Why do we need more rules? I don’t remember hearing anything about the conservatives doing this when Mister Harper was prime minister.
Have other countries had this much scandal with Covid protocols?
Do other countries have a Justin Trudeau running their government?
Yes look at the UK & EU
Do other countries have as many non nationals in there government as Canada has
How can any human being with a conscious still support the Liberal party ?
Right! It's crazy!
They don't have one.
Those ArriveScam contractors support him.
Because they want free stuff.

Idiocy is acceptable in politics but not outright denial.
Dominic LeBlanc is pleading innocent. This is pure illegal activity by the Liberal Party and they all must be responsible for their corruption. ❤ 🇨🇦
ArriveCan was never needed!
Technically, ArriveCAN was needed (as a vehicle to move taxpayer money to Liberal buddy bank accounts)
Truth
It was a test run for the permanent measures coming

Ha Ha it recorded our every move, but they can’t find the records of how much it cost, the AG had to guess!
Uncle Klaus, who else?
They’ll have to go on a retreat to discuss that, paid for by taxpayers of course.
It’s sickens me to remotely listen to a Liberal be it from a voter, to a MP or Senator.
Jeez…. They’re blaming COVID for mismanagement?
Canadians should be angry about this
Yes! Should be. They should be upset about all the other scandals and ethics violations too, yet we’re in year eight of this mess now.
I am!

Take it out of their pensions.

Imagine listening to her explaining this, it would take 3 hours and we’d be no the wiser! Torture

They shouldn't face criticism. They should face charges.

Never underestimate the stupidity and incompetence of a Liberal government

No answers from a Liberal. Typical.
“We are going to take the recommendations of AG to ensure it won’t happen again”. The current rules weren’t followed, why would new rules make a difference.
This is embarrassing... leaves you speechless really...
Putting on additional measures will not do much if the existing measures were ignored without consequence.
interviewer: Will there be accountability and consequences for this?
liberals: We will be sure not to do this again
Happen again ??????????? Such a pathetic response with respect to being responsible from the outset ! Canadians are paying for these atrocities! WE can't TRUST this Govt. and haven't been able to from their inception !! They've never protected our Values nor our safety ! How egregiously inept .. Intendedly! But hey .. the budget as with the Law will "balance itself! 🤬
Trudeau Freeland and Guilebaut must be held accountable. Same for the sellout Gagmeet
it smells like kick back follow the money
It’s always a “lesson learned for next time” but no accountability. Trudeau must go!
They welcome this report. No they don’t. They tried to shut it down. He is talking in circles, and avoiding saying if there will be consequences.
That $16 orange juice sure sounds like pennies now
Clearly he doesn't want to answer to the accountability question
You’re 60 million dollars too late for learning a so called lesson. Most Canadians see this “differently.”
Nice work Vassy don't let them off hook!
Nice work…..softball questions
“We are learning….” and yet you wanted to close down the parliamentary committee!!
Bunch of corrupts passing each other our money!
We will not forget these Liberal Criminals
Trudeau is done
Money went into pockets of Liberal hierarcy, So no conquences
I will be so grateful to stop hearing these criminals spin.
Why was Canada the only country with an App?
Who’s going to jail????
Lots of excuses. But this is just the tip of the iceberg about how the Feds operate all the time.
They basicly stole $1.50 from EVERY Canadians pocket.
No they do not get to use the pandemic as an excuse and the auditor found out that the money goes way higher to the same company. What’s that excuse
He literally sounds personally guilty...
So nobody is getting fired!!!
He said nothing in the whole interview. Pathetic.
It's absolutely Criminal.....there needs to be accountability!!
This is 60 million dollar learning opportunity for all Canadians! The Liberals are not corrupt, they just experience tax payers money differently.
I have lived in this country for 8 years, Vassy is the only somewhat serious Journalist I have seen.

CBSA learned its lesson, the public was protected, the federal government worked hard, no one was punished, and again everyone won except the hapless taxpayers.
And off shore accounts are full.
AG, did not charge any Liberal member no matter the crime.
ArriveCan was developed before the Pandemic.
Our government untouchable no one to blame i guess to much wasted money out we Canadians are to suffer for their corruption simple
Consequences are only for private citizens without any friends or family inside the Government.
A digital app did not save anyone’s life.
If, as this flunkie says at 3:04, this contract was being issued in early 2020… WTF?!?!
Otherwise, it was issued when there was NO emergency.

How about finding out where the money went and holding those responsible accountable. Pay back, jail time.
Best answer!
Who is going to jail?
Who cares about human resources? You guys didn't do your job to begin with.
Where is the auditor
This should have been audited every year.
At the speed of science! Want the money back. Better call the better business bureau.
this is horrible waste of money by the Federal Liberal Government supported by NDP and BLOC. we've all lost significant amounts of money at the hands of the Liberals NDP and BLOC! it's time to end these constant scandals and overspending and outright theft from the taxpayers.
If they could get 50% of the money back then there might be a little more forgiveness in this matter.
Excuses….excuses…..excuses….inaction and pretty opaque for a government that touts its “transparency”
They failed but take no responsibility. They think it's like school and everyone gets a taking part medal.
In business they would have been sacked.
And again, no questions were answered :) 2024 and this is our leadership :).
So basically no consequences.
The government should speak to criminality
The question was “SHOULDN’T SOMEONE BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE”? “WILL THERE BE CONSEQUENCES”? ANSWER THE QUESTION DUDE!!
An emergency is not a valid reason to let loose existing Policy & Practices .... it is a time of Super Diligence.
Pure Incompetence by all working on ArriveCan.
