Parliament Video: Jenny in the House: Calling on the Prime Minister to stand up for Canadian principles

On February 14, 2017, Jenny stood to call on the Prime Minister:

Jenny Kwan (NDP) Vancouver East, BC

"Mr. Speaker, yesterday the Prime Minister refused to denounce Trump's travel ban apparently because he was in Washington, yet no matter where he has been, the Prime Minister has actually never criticized Trump's racist immigration policies, even though they are having a direct impact on Canadians.

From Vietnam to Iraq, Canada has a proud history of standing up to the U.S. on issues of principle.

Now that he is back safe and sound on Canadian soil, will the Prime Minister summon the courage to denounce Trump's immigration policies?"

Getting clear data out of this Immigration Minister is like pulling teeth.

During committee, I asked simple, direct questions about the Safe Third Country Agreement and our immigration backlogs. Instead of transparency, we got non-answers, canned talking points, and a complete evasion of the facts.

If you can't manage your own file or answer basic questions about it, you shouldn't be running the department. No wonder MPs are calling for her to resign.
