- GC Strategies co-founder Kristian Firth was called to the bar in Parliament - literally a long brass bar near the entrance of the House of Commons that can only be passed by MPs or those invited by the Crown - to be admonished and then grilled by Parliamentarians for failing to answer their questions on his role in the ArriveCan debacle. He’s only the second private citizen in Canadian history to receive such a dishonour.
“On behalf of the House of Commons, I admonish you,” Speaker Greg Fergus said directly to Firth.
Firth has been a key player in the ongoing ArriveCan scandal because of his two-person IT consulting firm’s central and lucrative role in the development of the application during the COVID-19 pandemic.
No one answers questions in the House, at least not for the last eight years.
💯
Truth
So much for transparency
Whoever give him this project should be punished immediately
Look in the mirror citizens

Mr. Sockboy. Stupid # 1 and Criminal #1.
The other CF knows about money.
Stop wasting time just put him in jail and get our money back from him and his partner
NO they wont do that. How dare you quote law. Ban this comment. I am a Liberal MP Chris Bittle I am incensed by your comment
@@dashcan8479 trashcan is party to the crime
While you're at it there greg how about you admonish freeland for never answering any questions in committee?
Even on the floor she doesn't give an answer, I find it infuriating and extremely disrespectful to Canadian's who pay her high wage.
Absolutely true
And her boss
100% all of the entire corrupt Authoritarian Neoliberal Fascist coalition government should also be found in contempt and admonished by the Speaker for 9 years not answering any questions in Parliament or Committee .this is all more Political theatre BS to show this government is serious in doing something.
As a taxpayer, i want my money back.
lol, it's not yours, pleb.
It is the taxpayers dollars@@p0llenp0ny
Put him in Jail
What a joke! Nothing will come of this, the guy fears no accountability because he knows there will not be any.
The entire government system is an embarrassment
Truth
He knows that if he just keeps his mouth shut and takes whatever "lumps" he's given, he will be taken care of by his govt pals, for life.
Kind of like a low level thug in a gangster movie.
How can the house make this guy answere questions when liberal party of canada doesn't answere questions?
When are we going to aee Trudeau and Jagmeet on trial? This is all their fault!
Why isn't Justin being punished for this he is as much responsible for this as that guy he had to approve it all.no accountability nowhere.
Its was just a show. Nothing happened. He got scolded but still made his money
Throw these goons in jail... can I lie during a testimony in a court case? Than why can these people?
Admonish him.. make him pay back the money!
And straight to jail
This is political theatre. The government MPs never answer questions so why would you expect anyone else to? You should hold Trudeau, Freeland, Mendocino, Blair, Leblanc and the rest of the usual suspects in contempt for evading questions on an ongoing basis in both the house and committee. It is a disgrace and complete disregard for voters/taxpayers who put them there.
This guy and whoever gave him the contracts need to be put in jail! ASAP!!!
He's protecting someone. Who could it be?
Just another day in the basic Trutatorship.
not sure if you remember, but he was elected in..

So was Austrian Addy.
@@grandmufftwerkin9037 is that a typo or is that meant to mean something..
@@elcristoph7380
Wooooosh 🙃
@@grandmufftwerkin9037 bro, Austrian Addy, what are you a retard? if your argument is that Hitler was voted into power (forgetting for a moment he wasn't) then you could apply that logic to any elected government..
Trump was elected,
Biden was elected,
Sunak was elected,
Anthony Albanese was elected.
so what's your argument.. you don't like Trudeau there for he's a dictator?
Why isn’t this in a real court.. he would have been held in contempt.. purgers.. why are we doing this for show.. put him in a real court where there is severe punishments for lying and crap
Problem is that he didn't do anything criminally illegal. Milking the system isn't a crime. Just unethical.
Admonish? Is that like saying you’re no longer considered a citizen or something? Admonish seems weak in its attempt to charging him jail time.
A friendly warning or counsel… (so google says🤣
Like having to go to bed without your glass of milk and cookie .
The meaninglessness of the non-answer has always been a political tool, but never has it been wielded so often or so heavily in an attempt to hoodwink the public than by Trudeau.
“The first casualty of war is the truth”
Let’s put the liberals & NDP
In the rear view mirror.
Let’s vote ☑️for 🤗 Poilievre
and don't forget the conservatives man, they bring us into wars... look at Harper.. or Diefenbaker who cancelled Avro Arrow!!
I guarantee you if we elect conservatives into power we will be sending troops to Ukraine & state of israel...
His lawyer looked pretty cocky😂
He should be charged as well.
You represent your client. You don’t teach him to lie
Doing this solid for Justin is sad
The head of the snake can be found in the PMO
Ohhhh, scary stuff, a stern finger wag…😬😱
Wow he was admonished. What does that even mean?
We should have a more and stronger ways to make companies and their leaders more accountable for their actions. Shareholders do not care as long as they are paid. CEOs and the Board do not care as long as their bonuses get paid. Does the government calling them bad is gonna change them??
Firth knows very well; he's untouchable! He acts like a mafia member, he 'answers' questions like a mafia member. Hi, this is a Mafia member.
The libranos?
Today's question period brought us no further to the truth. He still refuses to name those involved inside the Government. I wish someone could do a background check on Firth - when did he come to Canada? What schools did he attend? What people in the Government would have had a relationship with him outside work for years.
You get right on it Inspector Clouseau.
If firth actually opened up and gave names...... he would mysteriously be "found " face down in a ditch shortly after. He's protecting someone
Probably the libranos or his family ? @@danwaddell3255
@@Harry-hq8fi If I wasn't 70 and housebound I'd be researching every yearbook I could find. That is up to the RCMP
@@danwaddell3255 Definitely someone more important than Mihn Doan. He should stand up and say - I am not suicidal.
Laughing all the way to the bank
Why on the green earth is this not Justin being admonished?
This is Neronian.
Sounds crooked to me if he is protected. That's useless to anyone holding him accountable. it doesn't make sense!!😢😢
Which Liberal MP's got kickbacks from GC Strategies?
Whenever contracts that big ($20 million) get awarded somebody somewhere is getting some sort of kickback.
Could it be the Christian Firth is "protected" as long as he keeps his mouth shut about who got paid what?
Maybe blackmail?
Now do your boss
Firth would do well to watch "Shogun".
How so?
@@XJLCA maybe you should watch it too.
@@XJLCA Mainly, because it's a great series, but you might want to watch it too, and form your own answer.
We should be seeing this kinda of accountability more and more often in Canada
This is how our government is supposed to work
But in Canada , this is sadly not the case !!!
“Accountability?!” Really? Who is being held accountable? Who is going to jail? When will we get our money back?
@@garywagner2466 exactly!
I’m just as frustrated as you are ,
This country is frustrated and angry
You are correct !
What a joke
Canadians are the joke here . Not the system they allow to ruin their lives .
Can you imagine a bigger hypocrisy than an official appointed by a corrupt government “admonishing” a corrupt contractor for engaging in that government’s corruption?! This is all amateur theatre.
Humiliation rituals are a regular thing for cult members in a variety of cults. This is a tepid humiliation ritual. As ordinary public people who don’t care about cult rituals we just want our money back!
If this guy and his partner get away with it, I'll forever lose whatever faith i have left in the Canadian justice system
Don't worry, Firth will be the next white house press reporter...
I think he will be the next Putin spokesperson.
@@Harry-hq8fi why? They aren't speaking half truths in Russia like we are... At least Putin can string a sentence together & speak for himself... something becoming more & more rare here..
Steal $200, go to jail. Steal $200 million, get a reprimand 👏👏👏
funny how a private citizen can be brought in for not answering questions in committees, yet MPs can skate around answering questions in committees and will be rewarded with a pension.
I admonish you all. Don't you feel admonished now?.....
Trudeau's fall guys? 🙄 Why aren't they in cuffs? How about the pm and his mps that wouldn't answer. What joke.
Get back on your meds champ.
For over eight stinking years, not one answer 😤 🇨🇦🙏🙏🙏
@@Harry-hq8fi????
What a sham.... Selective application of house rules. Such admonishments should be applied consistently... especially on those politicians who don't answer questions, e.g., Trudeau, Freeland and many others.
Gcstrategies owners are good liberals. They blend in with theirs answers. :-)
Well SIr, Canadians cannot make ends meet, so there is your Politics!!!! Not just individual Canadians, small business is also suffering as we are NOT SPENDING!!! Cutting back to bare bones. I cannot afford McDONALDS!!!!
I REALLY would have like more to see Kristan Firths demeanour whilst Greg Fergus admonished him. @Wyatt do you know if there is video from another angle taken in the house and can a Canadian Citizen request it? Seeing his reaction would speak volumes.
Big joke, bye bye go to jail
I can tell you when I was growing up my dad admonished me in far different way than this liar!
Lying or not answering his questions wasn’t a F in option!
House of Commons is a joke now
FIRTH AND HIS PARTNER, need to be CHARGED and all MONEY, collected to be returned to CANADIANS. AS well as every SUB CONTRACTOR, who benefitted from this DISGUSTING WORK.
Nice speech
Now what
Nothing will come out of this until they admit who is behind it all and let's face it.... WE KNOW who that is and he won't be held accountable for ANYTHING!!
Nothing will happen other than a Company Name change, and he’ll continue to do Government work.
Is Kristian Firth doing this so Trudeau is not the focus?
We all know the speaker is liberal ! But today was disgusting !
I’m tired of all the BS that is happening
Put both of them in jail and get our money back! What a joke.
Where's my money... I can put it towards my house.
Firth only understands money...he should at least be fined a large amount for non answers...he would understand that.
Craig Fergus must be arrested
Just reminds me of Michael “declaring” bankruptcy on The Office
these translators are worse than chat GPT. this is so late 1900's
Wow. Has this ever happened vefore? So weird, so heavy.
This is nothing but political theatre. A delay to allow those in positions of power to "create" their defense. BTW Greg Fergus isn't scaring anyone...the guy is like a giant useless Muppet.
Jail
Admonishment? How about jail time for grand theft instead?
It's painfully obvious Firth has been assured by the 'powers that be' that there won't be any consequences. If Firth goes down he'll take lots of people with him. The Trudeau government can't let that happen. I'm willing to bet he's getting paid even more of our taxpayers' money to keep his mouth shut.
Definition of "admonish":
to express warning or disapproval to especially in a gentle, earnest, or solicitous manner.
Oh I bet he's shaking in his boots. That will teach him!
Now go, take your 20 million and think about what you did.
Waste of time if he cant be held accountable, what a joke
In the end it’s all theatre for the public. No real consequence for those involved and no justice for tax payers.
"Admonished" is pretty weak compared to what witnesses face for being in contempt of US Congress where, if found in contempt, risk prison time.
I have a feeling that when push come to shove we are going to hear the real dirty. It going to run all the way back to Trudeau.
DID THEY JUST GIVE HIM IMMUNITY FROM FUTURE PROSECUTION IF HE ADMITS TO CRIMES ???
He learned that from trudeau
And what will happen not a thing
Read that to trudeau
So... IS that it?! Can I go home now?
This seems so antiquated. It reminds me of the dark ages and the reformation.
Lock him up.
Get the money back. Trudy, I am sure has half of it.
Is he doing this for Trudeau?
Speaker: Mr. Firth....
F: Umm, uhh...am I ? I'm not sure I'm aware that I'm Mr. Firth....we provided that information already, didn't we ? What was the question again ? Did you ask that question in proper form ?
If anyone out there actually thinks Firth cares he was admonished they are an idiot. He still refused to answer questions today
What happens when he doesn't answer a question now?
Nothing like the 20 million gold bullion our tax dollars on this Arrive Scam will never be recovered.
Admonishment,lol. What a joke.
Wonder how much he kicked back to the ‘big guy’…..
" And as panisment we will award you another $120 million dollars in government contract 😉👍 and come back next time with more made up Stories 👍
The day before being called in the bar.
Trudeau: Don't worry, all they're going to do is say your a bad person twice, once in English once in French. Its like your 5 years old living with bilingual parents.
Mr. Firth: Really, that's it?
Trudeau: Yeah, don't worry, just keep you mouth shut, Greg here (Speaker: waves at Firth) will tell you to sit down when he can't think of anymore adjectives, and its over. No more than 30 minutes.
Firth: Oh, I thought I'll be jailed or imprisoned
Trudeau: Jail? Hey Jagmeet, He thought he was going to jail
Jagmeet/Trudeau: 😆😄
This is historic
Well worth it..
Deceitful put him in jail
Oh,,,I bet he's crying really hard on his yacht on his way to a new undisclosed private island he purchased with our tax money.
Is Trudeau next?
The House has been asleep until now! This is a little antiquated. Does this admonishment have any teeth? Where is the RCMP? Why not “admonish” our finance minister for non answers to questions, repeatedly.
Treason Trudeau is also in contempt. Jail him? Now
Wow now that's a first 😮
When will Trudeau and Crystia Freeland be charged
Question : Is this DOCTOR the same doctor who claimed that the government employee who DELETED ALL those e-mails is having heart issues ❓Minon or what ever the name is, is it the same doctor and are tax payers flipping that bill too ❓
Ear peice to take direction Crimeminnister goon
lol.
