"Turned tail and ran": Trudeau calls out NDP on 1st day back in parliament
Canadian parliamentarians returned to the familiar halls of the House of Commons in Ottawa on Monday, to a political landscape that shifted significantly over the course of summer recess. Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre kicked off question period by calling for Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to “axe the tax,” while Trudeau defended the carbon pricing scheme as necessary for climate response and rebates. Trudeau also took aim at the NDP, accusing the party of trying “to save themselves” after NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh pulled out of a political pact with the Liberal government just weeks ago. “As soon as hard things got hard, they turned tail and ran,” Trudeau said. Following the appointment of Mark Carney as the chair of a Liberal Party economic task force, Conservative MP Melissa Lantsman claimed Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland was being “shoved aside” and demoted. Freeland responded by saying she was “not going anywhere” and criticized the opposition party for being focused on “personal mudslinging.” Conservative MP Don Stewart, who was elected in the historically Liberal stronghold of Toronto-St. Paul’s back in June, also spoke for the first time in parliament and referenced his “successful byelection campaign.” Government House Leader Karina Gould responded by welcoming Stewart to the House of Commons and took a jab by describing him as “someone else who knows how to repeat three-word slogans.” For more info, please go to https://globalnews.ca/news/10756597/parliament-return-trudeau-ipsos-poll-canada/ Subscribe to Global News Channel HERE: http://bit.ly/20fcXDc Like Global News on Facebook HERE: http://bit.ly/255GMJQ Follow Global News on X HERE: http://bit.ly/1Toz8mt Follow Global News on Instagram HERE: https://bit.ly/2QZaZIB #GlobalNews #Trudeau #Poilievre
