1
Thank you, Mr Speaker.
2
I'm very glad to be speaking to this pressing issue that has really got Canadians glued to their televisions.
3
The convoy has been really all over Ottawa and across every major city in Canada.
4
We've even seen it spread to other countries around the world.
5
I'm very, very glad that after two long years of division on COVID,
6
that we're finally beginning to debate this important matter in this historic House of Democracy.
7
I did want to begin my remarks by actually I forgot to say this right off the bat
8
but I'll be splitting my time with the member from Megantec et L'Arables.
9
So I did want to begin my speech a little bit
10
about talking about what kind of politician I think you have to be to make a difference in this place.
11
And I think every MP in this house has a bit of a different style.
12
And when I first came here I really,
13
for me I wanted to be a bridge builder.
14
And that really came from where I grew up
15
and where I went to university university i grew up in
16
a small farming community in rural manitoba to four generations of canadian farmers
17
so i had very entrenched rural prairie upbringing and values
18
and then i went to university at mcgill university in montreal a very prestigious elite liberal sort of university
19
and i met kids from all over the world with all different political views
20
and world views and really got a incredible experience learning about how other people think about the world
21
and i did find that that often while parties will disagree and someone will say,
22
I'm a staunch Liberal, I'm a staunch Conservative,
23
I'm a staunch NDP, there's actually a lot more that we have in common.
24
And something that I found that all parties,
25
I believe, at their core have in common,
26
is that they do believe that all Canadians and all people of this world deserve to be treated with dignity,
27
compassion, and respect.
28
And so that's how I approach these divisive issues that we as MPs encounter all the time,
29
and they're never easy to talk about.
30
They're very difficult issues.
31
And I look to try to build a bridge so
32
that we can come together as Canadians and agree on a peaceful path forward.
33
And that's how I've been trying to look at the very divisive situation in Ottawa right now.
34
And what I'd really like to see is a Prime Minister who calls for national unity.
35
Last week I spoke in the House about a lot of the division that we're seeing in the country
36
between east versus west, rural versus urban,
37
and particularly now during the pandemic.
38
And we have heard so much trauma from our constituents.
39
If there's any member in this house that does not believe Canadians have been through trauma these past two years,
40
they clearly have not been doing their job and listening to their constituents, Mr. Speaker.
41
It has been horrific, the things that I've heard.
42
We hear young children who are so depressed they don't want to eat.
43
Eating disorders are through the roof.
44
We've heard seniors
45
and elderly in our care homes who've opted for medical assistance
46
in dying rather than live one more month through isolation in care homes.
47
I have had widowed elderly women call
48
and cry to me on the phone of how lonely they are and they don't want to go on.
49
I've had grown men who've called me crying because their businesses are falling apart.
50
We know divorces, abuse at home, alcohol dependency, drug dependency.
51
All of these terrible things are up in our country because people are just trying to cope and are breaking down.
52
So from that perspective, I don't really see what's going on across the country as all that surprising.
53
To me, it seems like an eruption of something that's been simmering of pain and trauma and frustration for two long years.
54
and governments have not been listening to that pain and trauma.
55
Despite having rapid tests, vaccines and all different types of tools and scientific knowledge,
56
governments have repeatedly relied on harsh lockdown measures and divisive mandates to control this virus.
57
Meanwhile, we are seeing a Prime Minister who today got up in the House
58
and again othered Canadians who don't agree with him.
59
This is a man for six years who said diversity is our strength,
60
but if anybody doesn't agree with everything he says,
61
you're in the bad books and you don't get a chance to be heard.
62
You don't have a right to be heard.
63
And again, last week I brought to the floor of the House of Commons remarks that $600 million unnecessary election.
64
He said so many times before he called that election,
65
vaccines for all those who want them,
66
vaccines for all those who want them.
67
It's a choice.
68
He said that repeatedly.
69
He must have said it a thousand times.
70
And then within days of calling that election,
71
he was yelling into a microphone at a liberal rally that you have the right not to get vaccinated,
72
but you don't have the right to sit next to someone who is. so to me
73
that doesn't really seem like someone what did he say in
74
his remarks today he said this is not a fight against
75
one another it's a fight against the virus those remarks mr speaker suggest very different very different
76
so when it comes to an election and scoring political points
77
and winning votes the prime minister is very happy to divide canadians and pit them against each other
78
for their different personal health use.
79
I, for one, am sick and tired of seeing politicians use this as an evil wedge tool to rip Canadian families apart.
80
I can't tell you how much anger and tears I saw in the last election.
81
That was six months ago.
82
And now it's even worse.
83
Neighbours won't talk to each other.
84
I mean, Christmas family dinners.
85
I mean, even if there wasn't lockdowns during Christmas,
86
it's almost a nightmare to get families in the same room now.
87
If there's one person who doesn't share their views,
88
I mean, it's a nightmare.
89
Colleagues at work.
90
Again, last week I shared the story of a social worker,
91
a young mom I met during the pandemic on her friend's step.
92
She was sharing with me a story that she got Hero of the Year Award last year.
93
And this year, she had gone above and beyond to help people during a pandemic.
94
Before there was vaccine, she stepped up Hero of the Year at her job.
95
And now she said no one would talk to her
96
and she was going to get fired because of one personal health choice that she made.
97
As much as others tried,
98
there was no convincing this woman otherwise.
99
And I just, I don't know how public health officials and public officials get behind policies that do that to Canadians.
100
We are one of the most vaccinated countries in the world.
101
And this government continues to use it as a bludgeon to get people to submit to their policies.
102
I've never thought that entering politics two and a half years ago at a federal level,
103
we would see a government that was so keen to divide Canadians on something so deeply personal.
104
And as I've said before,
105
and I'll say it again,
106
I denounce any hateful and violent act outside.
107
Whoever is up to no good,
108
who's ever up to that kind of mischief and that kind of hateful rhetoric and those actions,
109
shame on you.
110
But what I'm seeing across the country is people mobilizing
111
because their governments have not listened to them for two years they've been experiencing trauma for two years
112
and no one is listening to them.
113
So what choice do they have left?
114
These people have all emailed their MPs.
115
They've called them.
116
They've been turned down by their MPs.
117
I'm sure there's members of the public from Papineau,
118
from the Prime Minister's riding,
119
who've reached out, who have a different perspective on this,
120
who've been traumatized and fired from their jobs for a personal health choice.
121
There are millions of Canadians,
122
millions of them, that have been deeply ostracized from society.
123
And when you don't listen to those people, they mobilize.
124
And we've seen protests across this country for over a century.
125
And rightfully so, we have the right to peacefully protest.
126
And I would ask the protesters outside that they do their best and stay vigilant to stay peaceful.
127
But we are seeing other governments around the world step up with lower vaccination rates and say,
128
look, we hear you.
129
You've been traumatized.
130
We're moving forward.
131
Here's the deadline.
132
This is the plan.
133
No more mandates.
134
No more masks.
135
No more distancing.
136
You can travel.
137
You can live your life.
138
You can hug each other again.
139
Here's the date.
140
This is the plan.
141
Here's the threshold.
142
None of that in Canada.
143
Absolutely none of that from the Prime Minister.
144
people have been traumatized and they're mobilizing
145
because they need some hope they need somebody in this house of privilege to come down from our ivory towers
146
and say okay little people we hear you
147
so sorry we've traumatized you for two years we're going to step up
148
and we're going to give you some hope here's a deadline
149
the member opposite is laughing the people in this house are incredibly privileged you've kept pardon me
150
that member has kept his job thousands of Canadians have lost their job and he's laughing about his own privilege.
151
What has he done to serve members that are marginalized during this pandemic in his community,
152
Mr. Speaker, but laugh at them in this House of Commons?
153
Shame on that member.
154
I would ask this government to do everything they can.
155
I asked them this two years ago in the House.
156
Go to other countries, see what they're doing what are the best practices how is it
157
that other highly advanced developed nations like the uk ireland the
158
netherlands norway denmark germany sweden switzerland how the united states how is it
159
that they have all the same tools we have they have
160
all the economic resources we have they've done their citizens have done all the work
161
and made all the sacrifices why is it
162
that those citizens get a plan for hope of
163
when we get back to normal when we get our lives back
164
when the the people outside you think they want to be
165
here mr speaker those people don't want to be here they want to be working
166
but that right was taken away from them
167
when is there going to be a plan from this prime minister
168
when is there going to be compassionate leadership to say this
169
is what this is it you've done the work here's the
170
tools we're moving forward our public health doctors have told us
171
as well it's time to move forward it's time to revisit these harsh mandates and divisive policies.
172
Mr. Speaker, I will just end on this.
173
I'm very passionate about this.
174
I think we all are from our different perspectives.
175
But I will say I will continue to be a bridge builder,
176
to reach out, to try to understand where others are coming from.
177
It would just be incredible if we could see members of the Liberal Party,
178
the Prime Minister, do the same.
179
Time to build a bridge, Mr. Speaker.
180
Questions and comments?
181
Questioning comment on the honourable member for Halifax.
182
Mr. Speaker, I just want to first thank the member from Burnaby South for instigating this debate tonight and for his remarks.
183
Now, the member from Kildone and St. Paul knows that the interim Conservative leader,
184
the member from Portage-Lisgar, encouraged her party to not discourage protesters to leave,
185
but rather encouraged them to stay and make the occupation the Prime Minister's problem.
186
Shortly afterward, when confronted with the horrific and violent deeds of the occupiers,
187
their interim leader recycled Donald Trump's hateful and disgusting torn defrost.
188
There were good people on both sides.
189
And even tonight, in this very House,
190
in this very debate, that same interim leader tried to stoke the fires of division when asking the Prime Minister questions.
191
Perhaps the next thing the interim leader will say is she will tell the occupiers to stand back and stand down.
192
Mr. Speaker, the behaviour by some of the members on the side of the House of the members for Kildona
193
and St. Paul's has been repugnant as the behaviour of those out in the streets.
194
So I'd like to ask the member how in the world she believes the actions of her leader and her colleagues
195
will help to end this unthinkable and un-Canadian disaster unfolding outside of these very doors.
196
The Honourable Member for Kildona and St. Paul.
197
Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
198
I appreciate the question from the member who laughed when I said that members of Parliament in this House have extraordinary privilege.
199
We've been able to keep our jobs.
200
Actually, I've never seen that member before,
201
so it's great to see him participating.
202
What I would say is that I'm very proud of our leader for stepping forward today
203
and putting forward a call to action to the Prime Minister.
204
She asked him today, will he meet with members of the other parties?
205
Will they get together, sit at a table,
206
and say, look, this is unprecedented.
207
This is an unprecedented demonstration in Canadian history.
208
It's time that you get together,
209
put partisanship aside, and work together to see how we're going to have a peaceful resolution to this.
210
As the critic for public safety,
211
the shadow minister for public safety for Canada,
212
Mr. Speaker, I am growing increasingly concerned that without a peaceful resolution
213
and compassionate leadership from this Prime Minister and that Member of Parliament,
214
that we are going to see this escalate.
215
They're just stoking the fires anyway.
216
There's pouring diesel on it,
217
so to speak, and raising the temperature with their mean language,
218
their name-calling, when they should be being responsible and lowering the temperature.
219
So that's what I'd like to see from Liberal members of Parliament and from the Prime Minister,
220
some compassionate leadership.
221
It's time to get together at the same table and talk about solutions.
222
Questions and comments?
223
Kessina Kamalpa, the Honourable Member for North Island, Powell River.
224
Well, thank you, Mr. Speaker,
225
and I want to thank the member for her speech.
226
You know, as I walk through this occupation,
227
I often reflect as the veteran spokesperson for the NDP on the people who fought for us,
228
who fought for other countries to stand up and speak out against any kind of oppression.
229
The people who fought for the freedom to have a protest in this country.
230
And I know that I just read an article today
231
that spoke about a veteran who was
232
so upset to see people parking on the tomb of the unknown soldier
233
that he went there to take pictures of those license plates
234
so that he would make sure that they were removed and that those people would be held accountable.
235
And right now in our nation's capital,
236
both that monument
237
and the Aboriginal monument are surrounded by fences to protect those monuments for the very people who fought for us,
238
for us to have the privilege to stand in this house.
239
So I'm just wondering
240
if this member could talk about where the line is to stand up against people who are causing concerning violence
241
and doing things that we should all be appalled by.
242
Thank you.
243
The Honourable Member for Kildonan St. Paul.
244
Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
245
I appreciate the Member Opposite's question.
246
I think it's incumbent upon all members of Parliament to stand up against violence and bullying and divisive rhetoric.
247
And I've seen that repeatedly.
248
I have done that repeatedly,
249
particularly when, again, we see a Prime Minister of this country who for over a year
250
and a half said that vaccines for all those who want them,
251
vaccines for all those who want them and then within days of calling a $600 million unnecessary election that further divided wounded,
252
traumatized Canadians within days from saying,
253
vaccine's a choice, he said,
254
you have the right not to get vaccinated,
255
but you have no right to sit next to someone who is.
256
That's the kind of dehumanizing language that incites people and gets their temperature up and gets them mobilizing.
257
That is the type of language that is irresponsible,
258
that we need to bring down.
259
That is not a prime minister who...
260
That Prime Minister should not be saying things like that.
261
And what I would say to the NDP is,
262
you know, I'm from rural Manitoba.
263
We used to vote NDP for decades.
264
And you want to know why?
265
Because it was because the NDP stood up for the marginalized,
266
people who didn't have a voice in this privileged House of Commons.
267
Where has their voice been from the thousands of workers who've lost their jobs?
268
Where's the voice from the social worker who was too afraid to get a vaccine and lost her job?
269
Where is their advocacy for them?
270
I don't know.
271
I haven't seen it.

Guida Passo Passo per il Shadowing
Utilizzare il shadow speak rappresenta un metodo efficace per migliorare la pronuncia inglese. Ecco come affrontare il livello di difficoltà specifico di questo video attraverso il shadowing in inglese:
- Ascolto Attivo: Inizia guardando il video senza sottotitoli per cogliere le intonazioni e le espressioni.
- Ripetizione: Riproduci il video e prova a ripetere le frasi, imitando la pronuncia e il ritmo del parlante.
- Frasi Chiave: Concentrati sulle frasi che hai annotato nella sezione precedente: prova a usarle in contesti diversi.
- Pratica con Voci Diverse: Guarda altre interviste o discorsi e applica la tecnica del shadow speech per abituarti a diverse inflessioni.
- Registrazione: Registra la tua voce mentre pratichi e riascolta per valutare i tuoi progressi nella pronuncia.
Seguendo questi passaggi, non solo migliorerai la tua pronuncia inglese, ma svilupperai anche competenze linguistiche preziose che ti aiuteranno a partecipare a dibattiti e conversazioni quotidiane con maggiore sicurezza.
Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?
Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
