Microphones muted after Poilievre calls out NDP, Bloc during Question period

The House speaker had to step in after Poilievre questioned the NDP and the Bloc Quebecois over their support for the Liberal government.

This mic muting business is absolute nonsense. Canadians deserve to hear what's being said.

[andg]

MPs speak on behalf of Canadians.
Muting MPs is muting Canadians.

[timt]

As a Canadian i dont agree with thr mic being muted. I want to hear everything said in that room

[ironcloudDMproductions]

If the house speaker cared about ethics he would have stepped down a long time ago.

[BC_N]

Our government and system is a big joke

[marckblay]

The Speaker has no right to deny Canadians on hearing what he is saying to The MPS

[marklundy]

Singh is constantly going after Poilievre during QP. Tables are turned and mic’s get shut off.

To think Jagmeet has Jack Layton's job. Im no conservative, but Jack Layton was smart dude with Canadians' interest in mind, not his personal gain. Jagmeet is a disgrace to his name.

This is a joke silenced for telling the truth. This government needs to go

[natesportyboy]

This will help the Conservatives push themselves past 250 seats next year.

Why am I paying taxes to these oligarchs?
Can someone tell me why I'm obligated?

From Financial Post:
"The federal government’s debt interest charges already cost taxpayers more than $1 billion every week".
"The government now wastes more money servicing the debt than it sends to the provinces in health transfers".

This speaker needs to resign, his blatant bias is disgusting.

[patcharles]

That is not allowed!!!! We as Canadian Citizens have every right to hear what is going on in the house… WE HAVE THE RIGHT TO KNOW WHAT’S GOING ON!

[darcylund]

We need to get rid of this biased speaker now.

[Toms_Woodworking_and_Carpentry]

Are we too sensitive to hear the truth?

[kellycarter]

Pierre was asking questions of the government. By their own admission and "deals", both the bloq and the NDP are working as part of the official government.

It's time for a complete system overhaul, enough is enough

[perryfefchuk]

So the bloc sold out like sell out singh.
