Remember that Greg Fergus has been in violation of the Ethics commission prior to becoming the speaker of the house. He has a history of being biased towards the opposition.
he's so obama
He’s allowed to be biased against conservatives when he’s just an MP. But as the Speaker of the House, you cannot be partisan, it’s a scared role.
He needs to resign
You have to give Mulcair points for being so fair.
he was the only normal NDPer
He's from another time
@@serenapimentel7372 Sadly, those times are over.
@@MsElke11Jack Layton?
Why is everyone bypassing the debacle of inviting a _az_ into the House of Commons??
Fergus won't resign because he likes all the extra perks that go along with being House Speaker.
as well as Turdeau's Tongue!! Remember??
And he,s a Trudeau bootlick that has the deny and deflect attitude
Fergus needs to go. He’s totally partisan. This administration is a bloody nightmare. I hope the conservatives get a 2 term landslide.
Really buddy are u really pulling the racist card?
yep, losers be losers all day long.
MP Rachael Thomas' words " I withdraw " were edited out of the official House of Commons transcript .
This was a cover up for Greg Fergus' .
That was the last straw , Fergus needs to resign .
.
100% correct. Where is the explanation or investigation of the QP Hansard transcripts being altered as per Thomas ejection. Altering official transcript documents of the House of Parliment proceedings is against the law. Someone intentionally altered the transcripts as Thomas pointed out in her complaint? How is that investigation going Fergus?
Yes. This is the biggest issue conveniently being overlooked!
Jagmeet will doing anything to cling to the tiny taste of power he has.
limp
Fergus needs to go
I’ve historically always voted Liberal but never again. Ridiculous
totally corrupt
Must be from Eastern Canada you don't seem very bright
@@user-qq9cj5ck7i So , only westerners are smart? GFY !
@@user-qq9cj5ck7i.. more than bright enough, actually.
Nice going, Rob.. you actually turned the discussion by calling Tory MPs racist. Inexcusable!
Fergus' job was to sit in the chair and look the diversity. FAILED again.
It takes a gigantic ego to mess that up.
The House is in a sad state of affairs. Embarrassing the country.
It just goes on and on. The NDP are repulsive
Fergus is a joke
LIBERALS are a joke.
Following your logic if the Speaker of the House was Caucasian he could and should be fired . Sounding more than somewhat Racist…!!!! 🤦♀️😡
Exactly
Out of line mentioning the colour of Greg Fergus's skin. It has nothing to do with his incompetence
Exactly! 🎯
Kick pierre out but not trudeau saying spinless, Pierre you get myself my families vote, and fergus needs to be FIRED
Mine as well
He needs to be fired....not resign
It doesn't matter what color or religion he is, HE IS BLATANTLY PARTISAN, he's a liberal through and through, and obviously treats the parties differently because of this!!
💯
Fergus is awful as a speaker. I am disgusted and he should resign. The guy is a complete failure in this role.
His skin colour has nothing to do with whether or not he's capable of doing his job.
Brian is tired of defending Fergus because he is indefensible.
The NDP's numbers: down
The NDP: Let's prop up a corrupt Speaker!
Anyone who has ever watched question period with Fergus probably wants him to resign his ill gotten postion..
He drips corruption and evil.
This repetition of questioning Fergus’ ability to serve as speaker is the answer within itself.
Fergus must resign.
As a Canadian taxpayer I expect that our Government officials do a better job at everything!!!! This notion of “ I didn’t know, I didn’t read it, somebody else wrote it “, is embarrassing!
💯
Mr. Singh will not support the resignation of Mr. Fergus. In any other parlimentary jurisdiction, Mr. Fergus would step down as it's the honorable course. But like the Liberals, the NDP and Mr. Singh have no honour.
The Biased Speaker of the house needs to resign!
Fergus should resign whether or not it was done on purpose, or because of incompetence. This is the 3rd time he's been called out. He could have been called out many times before.
The NDP just shown who their big boss really is and that’s not the Canadian but Trudeau!! Its shameful how Jagmeet is just waiting for his pension and does not care about anything else.
how about the question of privilege when kicking out Rachael Thomas? Remember changing the Hansard, sounds like fraud to me?!
Yup, that isn't even mention.
I'm disappointed, but not suprised that incident got buried and didn't become a big scandal.
He's laughing at Canada. Fire him. He has no right being in that position.
💯
This Speaker keeps stepping in it. And we all know what he's stepping in.
turd's tongue
Wallowing in it.
Well speaker Fergus is the story and he’s been a story too many times in the last six months so what does that tell you if the NDP agreed to keep them on it’s just another nail in the coffin for the NDP as far as I’m concerned. The NDP has really lost its way.
What about Rachael Thomas?
Fergus is a grandstander and certainly enjoys his power. He won’t resign and likely NDP will follow their bride and make sure he stays.
He should be fired
Most embarassing speaker since Bercow. Making an absolute mockery of the office
Again with this guy?
Im sorry but colour has nothing to do with it, wrong is wrong no matter what colour u are
Well said
He's small potatoes but Conservatives need to start exerting themselves with the Liberals somewhere.
Best day for Trudeau in over a year. For 24 hours, nobody has asked for his resignation.
Lol 💯
If you want a get out of jail card, become a politician.
Just replacing someone with full pockets with someone with empty ones!
If the neutrality of the Speaker of the House is in question, then the Speaker should resign. It should not really matter who made the gaffs that besmirched the position.
Exactly 💯
Fergus has a Liberal sign on his lawn 🤣
Fergus should resign but he won't the NDP is an absolute disgrace
I keep saying on videos on this subject. The convention should be renouncing party affiliation once speaker.
Fergusting
Lol
Trudeau is trudeauing and Fergus is fergusting...😊
Ferguson is DISQUALIFIED, ABSOLUTELY
💯
The house have the direct opposition party that is demanding the speakers removal should not even be a topic requiring any discussion. They have valid arguments and they have already been gracious enough for allowing the speaker a chance to learn and change which sadly he has not only not learned…he breached his oath of position much further without any remorse
Well said
You cant fire DEI hires. You're stuck with them.
DEI...didn't earn it...
I think you were a dei hire. You had to be.
@@ClarityDetermination what makes you say that?
Justice needs to take precedence before party partisanship. Fergus needs to go.
Yup
Forget the article. Did he actually say the words? THAT IS THE PROBLEM!
How many excuses can one person be allowed?
Why was Freeland not given a day in the park? If you say something in the house, it is said, even if you withdraw it, whomever was watching still heard and understood the words. In the old days, at school, if you said something offside in class, the teacher did not give you the chance to withdraw. You chose your words, and you are held accountable in that moment. Takesee-Backsee is on the playground, for children. Are we saying parliamentarians are children. I think that is what we are saying here.
He loses his pension if he supports this, will never happen!!!!
Bye Bye DEI Speaker!
Resign there should be fines for the speaker who doesn’t follow the rules! And not just $1000 but two weeks pay fine just like EI if you mess up on your hours. And Brian gallant was a horrible premier
There it is! Heaven forbid we get rid of an incompetent individual because, D.E.I.
Fergus has to go but he won’t is usual corrupt
The topic at breakfast this morning was who needs to go and the answer was Trudeau Freeland and Fergus the enabler to Canadian suffering, using Fergus as a campaign tool won’t work only make the colours of the liberal party stand out the rest of the way.
💯
A word spoken can’t be pulled back ?
Freeland called Pierre a phoney this week and Ferguson said nothing. But when she commented on him wearing makeup, she was asked to retract. Almost offended the alphabet crowd with that one.
OK. I have heard enough. And DON'T turn this into racism! Furgus' blunders are not all being duscussed here, and he is also not a novice Parliamentarian. How about his treatment of Rachel Thomas and the potential of scrubbing the Official record?! Shame on all of you!
💯
Fergus needs to be fired! Now his a Liberal
Fergus is a disaster and has to go. The rest of them are just corrupt
Rules are rules unless you are with the Liberal/ NDP
Continues to show liberal incompetence!!
What are we waiting for the 5th 6th 7th time wow.
Think we all know why he's getting extra chances
Speaker definitely needs to resign to save democracy 🙏 🇨🇦
Singh is committed. It doesn't matter what the speaker does. Singh will support the Liberals. He's a bigger problem than Trudeau at this point
Oh come on, Fergus needs to go!
Vassy: You gotta get rid of Bryan and that so biased Liberal Toronto Star reporter. We as viewers and listers ARE educated and informed. They are an insult to your and our intelligence.
Fergus has 3 documented strikes of out right partisanship. Do the honorable thing and resign Mr. SPEAKER
Well said 👏
What does the colour of his skin have to do with anything ?
Apology not accepted he needs to step down
Agreed
Apologize and step down.
FERGUS MUST GO
Ignorance of the law is not a defense.
The NDP is proping the Liberals up. So why would Fergus be unbiased to NDP but be favorable to the NDP. Think of Fergus as a referee in a hockey game that is highly favorable to one side. Fergus likes sitting with the Liberals, and then saying he is not fond of the Liberals.
What about mp thomas and the forms changedworh fergus
What is wrong with Freeland ... she can't stay on topic for one sentence !! She needs to be fired immediately !!!!
Canadians are so sick of hearing.. I’m sorry from the liberals 😡
I love it here in Canada !! Our politics is so tame.
Where do you get the clowns for your panel?
No redeeming qualities can be found within the NDP or Liberal parties.
Can we now all agree that the term, “word salad”, is, (yet again 🙄), another “Trudeauing” characteristic?
Gallent - you are looking silly defending the speaker -I knew what Benzies would say before he spoke
sorry Fergus needed to put in place the rules of his office...and his constituency office should have known that
In the real working world he would be fired, the colour of his skin should not allow him to get away with this.....
I think if he hasn't stepped down by now , he will
Just one more pile of dirt under the rug.
He blatantly has picked a side .... Get out
💯
Vassy: If you need a "liberal take on a topic, please employ Christy C over Bryan G....
intelligent objectivity vs nonsensical bias.
Wow! It sure is tough for Gallant to admit that Fergus is a "fool"...it takes one to know one!
Just another reporter for the Toronto Star who is sooooooo liberal biased that it is laughable what he is saying!
When Mr Fergus was Trudeau's secretary he was found guilty by the Ethics Commissioner.. and laughed about it on camera.
Absolutely agree with Tom
This is not about the colour of the person, this is about the partison of the person.whatever colour doesnt matter,if you are not fit for a job and keep messing up ,just give him a job that he is fit for ,simpĺe.
Defending the speaker, what a joke. He has lost the trust of all Canadians and doesn’t deserve to be speaker. Too bad you’re getting tired, take a nap!
Fergus needs to step down!!!
Color has nothing to do with it, he’s not capable of doing this job. Plain and simple
Come on, it's not about the speaker's color, it's about the terrible job he is doing.
