Poilievre calls Sean Fraser the 'most incompetent immigration minister in Canadian history”

The Canadian housing crisis continued to dominate discussion during question period in the House of Commons on Monday.

Conservative Party of Canada Leader Pierre Poilievre went toe-to-toe with Canada's Housing Minister Sean Fraser, assigning him a rather ignominious position in Canadian history.

During the debate in the House of Commons, Poilievre said in his opinion "[Trudeau] picked the most incompetent immigration minister in Canadian history, and put him in charge of housing."

Fraser shot back at Poilievre, saying "[Conservatives] get antsy when they're confronted by their actual record. Let's take a look at what he actually got done: Only six affordable housing units across the entire country — lost 800,000 more. Zero new apartments."

Sean Fraser is the worst immigration minister we had in this country.

Refugees with 7 kids makes $8900 a month tax free plus staying in 5 star hotels across the country. Shame on you Sean

Sean Fraser was in charge of the Dept of Immigration as Canada accepted 1.2 million refugees during his tenure. The provincial Premieres told him and Trudeau they could not take any more in. They did not listen and we still have too many people coming into Canada. The effect on the supply and demand of existing homes and rents has resulted in massive price increases for both. So now they made Fraser the Minister in charge of housing? The Liberals say they will build 3.9 million new homes, including rental units by 2031. Not a chance in hell they can reach that number in 7 years. First off governments don't build homes. Investors, developers and the trades build homes. If the economic conditions are not right they don't build unless it is on contract. Now the Trudeau Liberals are trying to get involved in homes, and apartment building in Canada. They have not got a clue on how to do it as home and apartment building construction has always been a provincial/municipal jurisdiction in Canada.

Wouldn't need a school food program if you cut the tax so we can buy affordable food for our kids ourselves

Immigration is a huge driver for the housing problems, which was lead by guy who is now saying he’s going to fix it 😂.
You got to love Canadian politics

[Abeysampson]

Sean Fraser should be ashamed and disguised he has 4398 sq feet mansion in Nova Scotia on the Ocean plus 4 rental properties.

My cost of living has doubled, these Liberal NDPs are very expensive and totally incompetent for Canadians.

[koshka]

I'm not entirely convinced Sean Fraser graduated high school.

[matthewst]

They don’t know what middle class is anymore

[TicklePickleLover]

They are building homes for rent not for sale. Big difference

[dutchcanuck]

Create the problem, provide the "solution." 🙄

[johnbrown]

Yet we took in 1.3 million new refugees last year. No new housing anywhere.

[Sandeep]

I think Mr. Ahmed Hussen is Canada’s worst immigration minister. He was there from 2017 to 2019 and introduced stupid policy changes on LMIA.

[karend.]

No one has an issue with 40k Afghan refugees, or from Syria or Ukraine etc. But 1.2 million students and 500, 000 new people a year in addition has wrecked availability of housing for everyone.

[jimmoore]

So, why didn't those 40, 000 Afghan refugees remain in abd fight for their own country? We sure as hell didn't need them here.

[LynneMarieTwambley]

Canada is NOT happy w the Liberals or NDP.

[georgesimon]

They are all the most incompetent in history. This applies to all 338 currently in the Ottawa clown show.

[jwatts]

Why do Sean Fraser's suits look like they're purchased at a gas station?

[Holdfast]

This is no longer a government - it is simply an Organized Crime Syndicate posing as one. Between the clown show of Sean Fraser, Shameless O'Regan, Freeland and Trudeau, just to name a few competence and accountability has become an entirely foreign concept in Canadian politics.

Good for you Global, lets expose these crooks!
