I want the privacy of my financial data protected from hackers, thieves, corporations and ALL GOVERNMENTS. If they want it they should have to apply for a warrant. Privacy commission isn't doing its job.

Answer the question!! Speaker says he can’t hear the answer that is because Trudeau NEVER answers the question.

[Ruddibruce]

Then Trudeau why don’t you answer the question.

[moewilson]

God, Trudeau does not get it. Cannot answer a question. I will be voting for sure to try and get this guy out of office. What should be out of order is that Trudeau will not answer the question. It is obvious since he won’t answer the question, there will be a tax on the carbon tax.

Well, PM if it comes down to it, the whole concept of "human rights " is an ideology.
This is how the cracks begin.
And it's the welfare class, not the middle class, that the TruLibs is growing.
Also, if Trudeau is so concerned about the environment, why is he so frantic to add over a million additional people per annum? Think of all the additional tax rev...er carbon footprints that would add.

Enough of this prime minister spewing nonsense, we don't care about past events, we care about this gross misuse of power to breach Canadian tax payer privacy, vote them out in 2019!!

Can anybody put up a picture of a party celebrating the long form census return????

[jasoncayen]

They sound like the worst classroom of children in grade school.

[kodac]

He’s having trouble hearing the answer. There is no answer.

OMG, please Stop saying "once again"

Let's be honest if the conservatives get into power they will answer like this too, and vice verse. We will always complain :D

This is good stuff, though. Atleast questions are being thrown and we get to watch
