CTV News is Canada's most-watched news organization both locally and nationally, and has a network of national, international, and local news operations.
CTV's definition of 'heckling' is different to mine. They weren't heckling the moron, they were trying to tell him the rules, but like most Liberals he chose to ignore the rules - only to preach about them! What a farce.
right wingers finally care about rules and decorum? give me a break
@@OK-hl6qdthe right is the only ones that care about rules and decorum
Only side that knows how to answer a question directly as well
OK, break granted. Go and take it. @@OK-hl6qd
@@OK-hl6qd Conservatives are about the rules. Look at the increasing number of rules that the Liberals are breaking, the biggest one of course being the invoking of the Emergency Act. Any government that would invoke such an act on their own citizens in a situation that doesn't qualify as defined by the act so they unilaterally decided to change that rule so they could inflict their unjustified will on Canadian citizens is absolutely vile and sickening! Walke up!
@@kimschwenker155 omg y'all are stilling whining about that after the commission resumed. They never changed the rule.. the matter fit what was intended by the statute. Y'all act like it was the end of the world just cause you're mad your illegal protest got disbanded and want some legal justification to your nonsense.
Maybe heckling would be reduced if the members actually answered questions
Then something would get done, how dare you 🤣
❤
I agree
He will forever be known as the guy who broke the rule to give a speech about following all the rules
know as the diversity hire. Regardless of whether he was or not, his actions will give him that dreaded label.
He will be running for P.M.the next election.
@richardwitham979 he will lose he's broken ethics and conflict of interest laws the liberals would be absolutely stupid to put him up as the leader of the party
He's being heckled at length for making a brief statement about better decorum. How hard is that?
@gabriepell that's funny because rota would say the same thing in 20 seconds....during question period....there was no need for what fergus did...it was also illegal and flew in the face of house and parliamentary rules....he was wrong to do it....end of story
Being the speaker does not give a person the ability to stop the business of the house, this is NOT a position to hold the house hostage and basically phillibuster the entire country's business.
I don't support the Liberals by any stretch of the imagination but this was not a filibuster. He wanted to ensure that the proper decorum was observed because of issues that have been happening for the past week in the House. This action taken by the speaker may have precedent and was well-intentioned. I don't think delaying Question Period a few minutes was a big deal. Ironically, all the complaining by the Tories delayed the House's proceedings even more.
GROOMED TO EAT ANYONE,
@@roen6800don't think, it hurts the team...
This is more than “a few minutes”
@@judyhittel4896 HE GRINDED
To me, the speaker of the house is supposed to hold all members to account and make them answer the question posed. This is just unbelievable. Just like everything going on in Canada.
Are you going to be able to sleep tonight? ❄️
This is Justin brother be nice!
right now in time, the liberal party is a cesspool of filth
@@thrillhouse7867lol oh Cletus back to using your other account lol
@jumbome7420 what other account? I'm in your dreams, apparently
Does he not realize how hypocritical he is? He's talking about adhering to the rules of the house while blatantly breaking the rules. This isn't how it works. Remove him
He's CASTRO'S NEW BOYTOY !🤣🤣🤣
HE HAS THE CONCH!!!
what rule? none were broken
@fraslex I guess you just put your fingers in your ears when the member of parliament reads the rule right out of the book. Typical Liberal, we can do no wrong even when we break the rules. Your Liberal party will be reduced to an afterthought when we get our chance to kick their corrupt asses out of power. Something which is way over due.
I don't know the process.. Can they get rid of him?
This guy cannot be serious. Who does he think he is? Total power trip.
Cuz libs won’t answer questions
@@Viewpoint11we never wanted a liberal speaker.
This clown has been found guilty of an ethics violation. Do you think he cares about rules?
@@Stoich827 really? i thought youd love it. i cant imagine why you wouldnt want that.
@@gororgelester985about as much as smoke in the eye!
Canada has become such a joke! I’m so embarrassed.
I’m so broke. No time to be embarrassed
@@ncook19701 poilievre is the reason for high cost of living
@@philipbloedow8296 Move back to USA please. We Canadians take our system of government seriously.
Things would only be far worse with Poilievre Conservatives in power.
Why are you embarrassed. The conservatives are just silly and they will be dealt with. Stephen Harper is coaching them to not get anything done. It is called fascism.
He violated the Ethics Law while just an MP, that should have disqualified him for the position of Speaker.
breaking ethics laws isn't top priority for liberals today.. liberals talk rule of law.... but that's where it ends for them. it's quite a corrupt party.
Trudeaus cronnies speaker
Well who in trudopes cabinet hasn’t? 😂
@@davidburdett1920 yup, if you haven't had an ethics violation you're disqualified
@@pegger-uh8ek because he is patient, forgiving, reasonable and always impeccably dressed.
another arrogant Liberal
He's gonna do something really bad before the end of the year and he's gonna lose his job. Canada will have had 3 speakers in a single year.
I. Love. This. Guy!!!! 😅😅😅😅😅😅
Hopefully we do not have to put up with non adults in the room anymore. They are sooooo annoying.
This is despicable that a speaker thinks he can change the rules of the house he needs to be immediately terminated
Unanimously elected...so the CPC voted for him too. Canada is dinked.
Perhaps the speaker should start demanding that the Liberals answer the questions.
@@PhilthyCasuallol the liberals hold the most seats. So mathematically conservatives could have not voted for him and he still got in. Math and facts really isn’t your liberals strong point
@@jumbome7420 But they didn't!!!
POMPOUS LIKE OBAMBA
That’s a really thick pile of speaking points. Since when does the speaker not have to follow the rules.
"Heckled"? No.
Held to account.
Guy is a control freak and a drama queen.
@@Viewpoint11I’ve never seen PP in costume or with face paint. I think you have it exactly backwards, as is the liberal practice
Speakers can come off that way, but its literally their job to keep order, even if their orders may seem like a buzzkill
Crazy, Liberal Speaker makes a speech on decrum when he should be giving a damning speech about the government side not answering the questions put forth by the opposition.
ethically challenged drama queen
Sounds like someone doesn't it ?
Hypocrisy at its best 👌 preaches about rules and decorum, whilst in open violation of house rules..... wow...
You said it dude.
well he IS a liberal, so , yeah
We need a new Speaker - NEXT! This one loves his own voice too much.
Also : doing this is like punching someone in the face to teach them that violence is wrong.
The speaker should be fired for what he did.
He was breaking house rules. The speaker isn't there to filibuster parliament. He violated house rules doing so.
Hate a break it to you, but this isn’t filibustering. Unless the conservatives are going to bring everything to a halt to argue this and waste more Canadian tax payer money on an inquiry for political theatre, who cares? They are just trying to pull out all the stops so they would have their way. We have bigger fish to fry than crying about this.
When he violated House rules, why did he not rule that he was in violation ?
@@michaelbodden-qp1cg his violation was like jaywalking. Who cares?
The liberals don't care about rules or ethics just like dozens of other liberals this speaker was found in violation of ethics rules before becoming speaker!
@@Viewpoint11 Who cares that he has had two prior ethics violations as well right? Or tried to change decorum while breaking decorum
And just like that, he’s now hated by Canadians. That was quick for him to ruin his reputation.
He is LOVED by Canadians!!😅😅😅😅😅
I love this!!
@@ClarityDetermination Canadians don't want corrupt politicians.
Hated by real Canadians and not the imported variety.
@@QUICKIRONS Racism is not a cool colour on you. I'm afraid you don't personally get to decide who and who is not a Canadian. Anyone with citizenship qualifies.
You mean the reputation of breaking ethics rules?
Greg, sit down, it's not a grade 8 social studies debate, but your starting to make it feel like one.
The opposition members should have walked out as this was an obvious filibuster
Except, if they did that, then the Liberals would have had what they wanted. No Conservatives have to hold them to account.
Yep they should have shouldn't have they really on
Turn their backs during his "speech" would of been useful.
Actually, no. They must not give any ground.
They wanted that.
Fergus Must Go and take Trudeau with you!
Wow this is unbelievable!!😮😮😮😮😮😮
He tries to correct Andrew Scheer, who was speaker of the house for years. Not two weeks like this "gentleman". This is hardly heckling, it was a very polite correction. This is an abuse of power on behalf of the speaker. The opposition should have walked out.
I wish they would walk out and stay out. Then the room would have just all respectful intelligent adults. Something would get done. 😅😅😅😅
Gotta love how Scheer had the rules with him. lol
@@ClarityDetermination "respectful adults" ...no one will take you seriously when you say crap like this....liberals and NPD are the furthest thing from respectful. If they had an ounce of respect they would have done Canadians a favour and called an election.
Nonesense!@@ClarityDetermination
They just don't have the testicles to do so. Never forget that they also ALL gave an ovation to an evil german.
Dude has the audacity to talk about order and decorum well breaking the rules of the house. However this is no surprise coming from a guy who has already broke ethic rules.
Here we go no respect from the chair step down now Fergus
Wondering how he got elected to be Speaker when he had ethics violations
Wait... They were complaining that he had given a speech when they were supposed to be doing QP, so he gave another speech? And he's just repeating the same thing over and over again. Huh, I guess the guy who suggested it was a filibuster was correct.
I think he was trying to mess with the Conservative MPs' schedules so that MP's would have to leave and make QP void of questions. Who was it that said, "Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah? Oh right, Greta. Somewhat ironic. Right?
This guy has to go! He just proved he has no respect for the house and his speech proved it!!!!!
Well actually if you were listening, and actually hearing, it was conservatives who were acting like spoiled brats and really do not deserve to be recognized on the floor, in my honest opinion. If Liberals did that and they would not, then Pierre Poilievre would have a tantrum.😅😅😅
@@Viewpoint11he doesn't have to break the time rule to enforce the rules...
This speech could have been made at many later.. There is time for this sort of thing. He can't break the unquestionable rules put in place to enforce the rules.
@@Viewpoint11100% disagree , if this happened to the Liberals, there would be a full out witch hunt for a resignation and cries about how unethical it is. I also wouldn’t call the need for an honourable and just speaker of the house a “waste of money”.
The Liberals seemed to love it.
He commits to "enforce the rules that you yourselves have given the house..." as he breaks the rule that question period starts no later than 2:15pm
It figures. Another Liberal speaker.
Ahh yes lest delay question period so my party doesnt look and sound like a bunch of morons in the wake of scandal after scandal after scandal.
dude thinks he can just bend the rules of the house whenever he feels like it
Ahhh Nope! He is finally enforcing the rules!!!! 😅😅😅😅😅
Sooooo happpyyy. No more conservative animal house crap! 😅😅😅😅
@YuhMothaYuhFeelMeh What do you expect? He is a Liberal speaker.
@@ClarityDeterminationlol except he broke the rules. Hey it’s not your fault you liberals have no idea what rules mean.
He's a lib, they do what ever they want, when they want, they all went to narcissist camp, remember?
That is the liberal party way ,hey, hey don't ya know.
What a nightmare. I’m still stunned this is happening during question period.
I don't care as much about bad behaviour as I do about truth and accountability.
The sad part is you fail to see the connection between the two...
Well said!
This is outrageous! He's refusing point of order! 🤯
It’s getting bad to worst .. ☹️
Perhaps you like it when question period is run by the rude and disruptive barnyard conservative cattle.
Worst to disaster.....
These political parasites need to be put in their place. This needs to stop NOW.
How come Trudeau is the new speaker of the house?
They weren’t heckling. They were stating the rules. Big difference.
Looks like we might have a dictator in the chair, or should I say throne. Not being on time wastes others time, Trudeau wastes everyone's time when he shows up late at almost every announcement.
Can't be for REAL in Canada.
Welcome to chinada
oh its real alright !!!
Not just delaying…USING question period time to do it.
Respect would be to have the Speaker hold the Liberals to account and actually answer one question or challenge from the opposition.
Maybe he should have given a speech about how the government and its leader are supposed to answer questions. They flat out refuse to answer 95% of any questions posed to them.
Shame on you speaker for breaking rules to talk about decorum and respect. You should be modelling proper behaviour, and shame on the members for being disrespectful to the speaker. You are all adults and should behave accordingly. I’m embarrassed to say that this is my government!
A already don’t like the guy !!
Flush it
Liberals NDP let it make skid marks on the way out.
I’m 100% to vote ☑️ Poilievre!!
Parliament needs to wizen up. The choice of the current Speaker of the House was a bad choice. When the Speaker decides to ignore the Rules of the House he is no longer following Parliamentary Duties of the Speaker of the House set out by said house. Greg Fergus should be removed from the position of "Speaker of the House" and get someone else to properly fill that job posting!
Thank you Andrew
These liberal speakers and liberal con artists need to go
Well, I do agree with the speaker's speech to use proper language, to prevent excess mocking to slow down the question period, and respect authorities.
However, I would like the speaker to more focus on ensuring the question to be answered properly. Most of the time, the question was never answered straight, beating bushes and time is out. If the speaker cannot force the answer, the speaker is useless, and his speech also becomes meaningless in my opinion.
I hate it when they turn the mic off
Clown show.
Respect for the rule of law is paramount in obtaining cooperation
Has to be a Saturday night live skit.
This couldn't possibly be the house of commons.
Could it?
Just when you think Canada can’t be embarrassed any more by our government …
Speaker of the House-“Hold My Beer”
What exactly did he do that was so awful except starting a few minutes later than 2:15? There is precedent for that, government quite frequently runs on precedent. Further, he was just requesting a better recognition of professionalism and decorum. If that's bad, and any part takes issue with that then that is concerning. I question that person's fitness to sit in the House
@@shadowguy321 Right, but as was pointed out he does have designated time slots to do this. Not during legislative hours.
little fergus had to read what justin gave him or wouldnt get any extra money
Exactly Pierre ❤
This speaker seems way too unbearable and arrogant
@@Viewpoint11lol he can’t even follow the house rules then gets mad once his liberal incompetence is pointed out
Former Speaker of the House of Commons trying to help the brand new Speaker of the House of Commons. The new Speaker of the House of Commons is arrogant...😮😮😮
The new speaker is a badass!!!!! I LOVE THIS!!! 😅😅😅😅
What an embarrassment. He seems to lack basic intelligence to understand the situation. Narcissists frequently believe they are more intelligent than they really are.
What did anyone expect ?
This is not starting well for this guy. Wrong guy for the job. I wonder why they chose him…
It just keeps getting worse and worse
wow how come hes giving speech its not his place correct me if im wrong
The muppets Clap like your told
Time to get rid of this speaker
What an arrogant price.
replace the E with a K...then you r right..
That Ferguson guy is a fool and and can’t wait until he has to resign
Wonder if the Speaker will make the Libs actually answer the opposition's questions, lol?
Liberals accountable? You ok ?
No one cares what the speaker has to say. He's unelected and inconsequential. He's just supposed to be the referee of the Parliament.
Dude giving advice is like, "He's right." New guy: "Yes, he is a righty...I'll just talk now."
Why are they muting the microphone? What is going on?
"And any unbecoming activities will be met with a serious response. Let me be perfectly clear! Any and all measures will be taken to enforce these actions, including taxes if required!"
How did he get elected for this position? The other choices must have been terrible.
Knee pads probably
Oh darn the libs are crying
We need a new speaker. Drop him now. Can just imagine how indecent of a person he is if he conducts himself like this.
He won by democratic vote, further Conservative MPs that also ran echoed these points. Fergus is right
@@shadowguy321no he isn’t, he isn’t supposed to make speeches, that’s not his job
Lecturing Parliament on how to behave is absolutely ridiculous
Might as well just resign now mr speaker, what an embarrassment
I, along with other Canadians, did not view this performance as heckling. I saw it as a complete disregard for Parliamentary Rules. While opposition members made several modest and valid objections to the abuse of his position, the animated support of liberal MPs illustrated that it had been planned and was supported by gov't. It further demonstrated that Fergus is not fit for the job. Conservatives should not have been a party to it and simply walked out as he began to read. Trudeau has made a mockery of Canada's Parliamentary Democracy and he should be held to account for his treasonist insanity.
Mr. Full of Himself Speaker.
Agreed
This is what happens when you give them some power!
Who “them” 😂
This guy is N F G
Wow this looks bad. He doesn't seem like he understands his job at all. Oh, groaannn...
The speaker needs to be terminated! And a new one comes in. He is blantly biased
This is so Unheard of ! whats wrong with Canada. If you wanna make a speach especially about nothing make it after.
Pierre Pollievre for Prime Minister
This guy is such a joke! Been in the chair for 5 mins, and thinks he is going to lay the law down. Sit down and shut up, and let the adults speak! Tell him the LAW Pierre!
😅😅😅 I can't wait to see what he does to little pissant tantrum peepee. 😅😅😅
Speaker needs to resign I feel like he'll pull more of these shananigans more often
YUP! he's a Liberal...needs to hear himself say "nothing"
"Well, ah say..."
Fergus said a lot!! 😅😅😅😅
You might not be able to listen or hear however that is not his problem.😂
Decorum in the House! Yeah!
Comedy hour in Canada... home of Le Cirque du Soleil 😂😢😢
He should resign.
So in other words:
"In a system designed to make our leader accountable and allow the opposition to challenge him/her, we will no longer accept any kind of talk that questions the courage, honesty, integrity or commitment of said leader... sorry... "anyone". If a question is answered only with misdirection or a simple refusal to answer at all by "anyone", the question may not be repeated as this will be taken as a form of disrespect and intimidation. Any personal attacks on "anyone" spending six figures on a vacation, five figures on a monthly grocery bill, randomly renovating their home and flying around in private jets with taxpayer money will not be tolerated. If said taxpayers are continuously growing in the number of the homeless, starving and ill (mentally and/or physically) as they spiral into poverty is irrelevant. This is not the place to mention any corruption and/or payouts "anyone" may be involved in and the sanctity of the house will be respected. If you cannot abide by this, you will force my hand and I will have you removed from the room to silence you. Despite the fact that the disruptions and outbursts that I am referring to stem from questions, criticisms and/or accusations being met by dishonest tangents and a complete disregard for accountability... I will not address that matter and that response will still be permitted."
Of course the Liberals did a standing ovation after hearing this, but did no one find it odd they also did the same before knowing what was going to be said? Not to mention coming from a speaker that follows a predecessor that was thrown under the bus for a guest the Liberals invited and walked into the house with hand in hand. Things are only going to get more dangerous and damaging for this country as the election creeps closer. Speaking of elections, where was "anyone"... sorry... Trudeau? I didn't spot him in the wide angles. Did I miss that?
Why is this guy getting paid tax $$
This guy is done.
Bad behavior? Do you mean like ethics violantions?
the world is literally on the brink of total calamity, meanwhile in Canada.... this.
I miss Anthony Rota.
He need to resign!!!!!
How long is this speech... omg
ADHD? Sort of like the non adult conservatives who have to have their disrespectful fascist disruptive gums flapping while others try to get something accomplished.
Really. You don't know what you're asking for.
13... almost 14 minutes.
Still going
It wouldn't surprise me that Trudeau written this ridiculous speech, it sounds like something he would do.
