Speaker rules government violated House powers over 'green slush fund' docs

House Speaker Greg Fergus ruled that the government appears to have violated the vast powers of the Commons when it failed to surrender records on the so-called "green slush fund" so they could be turned over to the RCMP, even though the force doesn't want them.

I wish more Canadians would educate themselves by watching the government committee meetings where you clearly see the hard work the Conservatives are doing to protect Cabadians. The Liberals need to be made accountable and clearly the Conservatives alone can't do that alone. We need media to shape up, we need the RCMP to step up, we need MORE Canadians to show up! Please every riding, Province, and every school board, City Mayor, every election needs community to show up and vote to scrutinize until we turn thid failing Country around. We have 4 minority parties one ONLY concerned about Quebec separatist issues but votes effect all Canadisns, and they are playing dirty bavk room politics openly. Never so much cortuption has hone on in Canada at one time as today 9 years of this penitrated WEF leaning ideoligy that invludes lies, twisting of facts, alteted and corrupted science and forced on the people involvment in global agendas that harm and threaten every person in Csnada.

[@G-2678]

However, the big problem in Canada are the Bills that Trudeau & the Senators passed in Canada and the media are not allowed to report the True News. No Canadian can comment or they are fined or jailed where in fact Trudeau & his lying Ministers should be JAILED for all their unnecessary Spending of the Tax Payers' monies and at the same time this Liberal Government had destroyed our Healthcare Systems, infrastructure & Education Systems and above all, our Defence, the Military. This is the worse Government ever in Canada. Another thing I have to say, it is a waste of time to hear English & French in the HoC. 11 Provinces are English, 1 Province is French???? English is the Business Language, Worldwide. Speak English and quit wasting our time & monies.

Then he helps his party push this issue down the road despite the rules already being in place, that part was in English. Then covered his own butt in French.
