Chrystia Freeland Grilled by NDP MP Matthew Green: Did Liberals Take Notes About Decision to Invoke the Emergencies Act?

The Emergencies Act Committee has repeatedly been asking for transparency and documentation to back-up the Liberals decision to invoke the Emergencies Act with no luck.

Green stated during the meeting “So I’m going to put the question to you directly: What were the economic impacts of the occupation? And were they significant enough to meet the threshold of a threat to national security under Section 2 of the CSIS act?” said Green, referring to CSIS’s definition of threats to national security.

Freeland did not answer directly but honed in on Green’s comment about Canada’s reputation, saying the country’s reputation was key to a strong economy.

“Canada’s reputation as a reliable trading partner, as a reliable investment destination, as a country with peace, order and good government, as a country with stable and effective political institutions, these are some of the most precious things we have as an economy, and they are the foundation for our prosperity.”

Green responded “That’s not the question I asked you,” repeating his previous questions on economic impacts. “I’m not talking about pontification, I’m talking about facts here.”

Freeland replied “I don’t believe I’m pontificating”, “The economic impact was absolutely, clearly there.”

Pierre Poilievre : Trudeau Censorship Stop this blatant censorship. Keep the internet free for all. https://canadianriley.com/pierre-poilievre-trudeau-censorship-stop-this-blatant-censorship-keep-the-internet-free-for-all/ https://canadianriley.com/pierre-poilievre-trudeau-censorship-stop-this-blatant-censorship-keep-the-internet-free-for-all/?noamp=mobile#respond Wed, 08 Jun 2022 04:55:10 +0000 https://canadianriley.com/?p=247 Pierre Poilievre : Trudeau wants to empower more government gatekeepers, so they can control what you see and say on the internet. Stop this blatant censorship. Fire the gatekeepers. Keep the internet free for all Canadians.

I thought this bill CLM it, which would give the CRTC the ability to determine what you see and say online, it would give privilege to certain types of content that would then appear in your newsfeed and on your YouTube channel. Because of manipulating the algorithms, using bureaucratic powers behind the scenes. These powers exists nowhere else in the free world. Furthermore, Trudeau now has a proposal to bring in something called a digital Safety Commissioner. This is someone who would have the ability to take down content that he doesn’t like on the internet.

Now, let’s be clear, about you get a lot worse if this passes, in fact, they had an online consultation and the Twitter Corporation, not somebody’s individual tweet, but the company itself said that these powers remind the company of what already exists in North Korea and Iran. Right? That is what Trudeau wants to institute here in Canada. It shouldn’t surprise anyone he said that he admires the basic Chinese communist dictatorship, right? That is the mentality that goes in to these things. And why why did you want to do that course he’s afraid of criticism. He doesn’t want to debate because he knows can’t win a debate.

In fact, he’s terrified of debating me in the morning figured that instead, he has tried to censor me and other people like me by shutting down social media platforms so that every piece of debate has to go through the liberal media in Ottawa, which he has bought off and which are loyal entirely to him so that they can continue to just regurgitate his talking points rather than letting the people speak freely. Ladies and gentlemen, I pledge to stand up and fight back against C 11. And the digital Safety Commissioner for appeal that law and fire that commissioner and reinstate freedom.
