Learn English with Justin Trudeau. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau speaks to the House of Commons on the issue of Crack, Heroin and Meth use in schools, hospitals and schools next to children, and calls for the reintroduction of crack and heroin in schools.
00:00:00.000The Honourable Leader of the Opposition.
00:00:02.380The Minister is not worth the drugs and death.
00:00:06.180His extreme and radical drug policy has increased overdose deaths in British Columbia by 380%.
00:00:16.860In the year following his decriminalization of crack, heroin and other hard drugs in hospitals, transit buses, coffee shops and parks where children play,
00:00:30.780there has been a record-smashing 2,500 deaths.
00:00:34.120Will the Prime Minister accept the B.C. NDP's demand to recriminalize those drugs?
00:00:43.860Mr. Speaker, I just answered that question.
00:00:46.060What hasn't been answered by the Leader of the Opposition is why he chooses to continue to court extreme-right nationalist groups like Diaglone.
00:00:54.360He refuses to denounce these extremists who don't believe Canadians should coexist with each other.
00:01:01.100Instead, they call for war and tell people to follow their instincts accordingly.
00:01:06.540The Leader of the Conservative Party is actively courting the support of groups with white nationalist views.
00:01:12.520It is disturbing and he needs to stand up and apologize now.
00:01:16.480Colleagues, so soon in question period, it is important that we try to control ourselves.
00:01:28.080I'll ask the Honourable Member from St. Albert, Edmonton, please, to allow members to ask the questions and members to respond.
00:01:35.940The Honourable Leader of the Opposition.
00:01:37.480Mr. Speaker, I always condemn extremism and racism, including from the guy who spent the first half of his adult life as a practicing racist,
00:01:48.760dressing up in hideous racist costumes so many times.
00:01:52.480The Honourable Leader of the Opposition knows that to make an accusation directly at the character of a single person is not appropriate.
00:02:20.640Mr. Speaker, I will also condemn the extremism of a Prime Minister who gives hundreds of thousands of dollars
00:02:50.240of anti-racism money to a Jew-hater who has proposed shooting Jews in the head.
00:02:56.360I condemn a Prime Minister who allows the IRGC, which murdered 55 Canadians, to remain legal.
00:03:05.060And I condemn a Prime Minister who allows open use of crack, heroin, meth, and weapons in hospital rooms
00:03:13.380that threaten nurses and on school buses next to children.
00:03:17.680Will the Prime Minister reverse his extremist policies?
00:04:35.980Ms. Harder, I have to name you for disregarding the authority of the chair.
00:04:47.980Pursuant to authority granted to me by Standing Order 11, I order you to withdraw from the house and from any participation by video conference for the remainder of this day's sitting.
00:05:42.420Now back to the original point, I'm going to ask the Prime Minister to please, as I'd ask the Leader of the Opposition to start from again and to make sure that he does, to start his question,
00:06:03.140reframe it in a way that does not call into the character of an individual Member of Parliament.
00:06:11.860Mr. Speaker, the Leader Opposite is showing us once again what he will do to try and earn votes through personal attacks.
00:06:19.860He shakes the hands of the leader of a white nationalist group, then goes to actively court the support of the group's members and thinks he can get away with it.
00:06:28.580This is a group that advocates for violence against 2SLGBTQI plus Canadians, against Hindus and Sikhs, against Muslims and Jews.
00:06:38.580Diagalon stands against everything we stand for as Canadians, and yet he will not denounce them or what they stand for.
00:06:48.580The Honourable Leader of the Opposition.
00:07:00.900Mr. Speaker, that, like everything else he says, is false.
00:07:03.860He uses fears and fear and falsehood and this latest distraction because he doesn't want to face the fact that he has become so extreme and radical
00:07:13.860that even the BC NDP is distancing themselves from his decriminalization of crack, heroin, meth and other hard drugs
00:07:26.180in hospital rooms, causing nurses to have to stop breastfeeding their babies for fear that their contaminated air might end up in the breast milk of the baby.
00:07:44.820He will still won't condemn these groups.
00:07:47.940Any leader that needs the support of a far-right white nationalist group to fundraise and get closer to power does not deserve elected office.
00:07:58.420This is a 19-year career politician who knows exactly what he's doing and thinks he can get away with it.
00:08:07.940It was a choice to pander to white nationalists, not an accident.
00:08:12.480And it is a choice to continue to not condemn them and condemn everything they stand for in his quest for votes.
00:08:28.420I'm going to ask the Honourable Member for the second time, from St. Albert, Edmonton, to please withhold his comments until he has the floor.
00:08:43.460The Honourable Leader of the Opposition.
00:08:45.920Mr. Speaker, it is a choice for him to implement extremist policies that have taken the lives of 2,500 British Columbians every single year.
00:08:58.440Since the NDP has asked him to reverse course on his and formerly their radical policy, 22 British Columbians have died of drug overdoses.
00:09:10.500But he continues to allow those drugs to kill the people in our hospitals and on our public transit.
00:09:18.060When will we put an end to this wacko policy by this wacko Prime Minister?
