00:00:00.000 When it comes to the broader demonstrations we've seen in Ottawa, in Quebec City and all

00:00:13.020 across the country, I will abstain from the kind of generalizations that we've heard these

00:00:18.200 last few days. I've seen on Radio Canada an interview with what seemed to be a very kind

00:00:24.580 grandmother who demonstrated for her grandkids. She looked and sounded nothing like a white 0.99

00:00:30.540 supremacist. Nor did the Black, Sikh and Indigenous Canadians I saw demonstrating on my way to

00:00:36.960 Parliament these last two weeks or in Quebec City this last Saturday. I have enough respect

00:00:42.240 for my fellow Canadians not to engage in these easy and absurd labels. Does the fact that you're

00:00:50.120 here today holding a news conference indicate that you had no faith that expressing your

00:00:55.180 views in caucus, sort of talking about these issues in caucus, would have little effect in

00:01:00.640 getting the government to change course? I still am hopeful that the government will change course

00:01:06.560 and adopt a different approach. And that's my ask today.
