Stephen Harper is a douchbag traitor who betrayed Canada and fellow Canadians.
People of Canada when will you wake up and see that all you're rights and freedoms are being violated and being removed by you're own corrupt government.
As a fellow Canadian myself I'm outraged at what Stephen Harper is doing and my fellow Canadians you should be outraged as well.
what an idiot. caught him lying right away. contempt is from the chair of the house, not the opposition. no confidence is what comes from the oppositions. this man is such a fail how can people be so stupid.
Harper you haven't a clue what the Canadian public cares about, all you know is what your puppeteers care about......how dare you speak about what I care about! How do we stop this lunatic before it is too late?
The opposition parties decided to vote "no confidence" in the government and cited "contempt" - a contested finding in a parliamentary subcommittee that voted along party lines. This was to complete a deal among the Opposition that they have been cooking up for months. The Contempt thing was a tool - not a serious finding if you read the transcripts - and totally bogus. -a quote from a well educated friend.
How come Candains are stupid and vote some one like this back in to office. He should have been voted out. I am outraged that hes allowed to be in office. If a regualr person beaks the law the full wrath of the justice seyetem is on their ass, but if Harper breaks the law he gets re elected WTF
@grownuptrunks Heyyy heyy I totally agree that this idiot is a joke . Stephen Harper in my opinion is an idiot that's running this country right into the ground and taking the common ppl along with him . I was hoping for someone else believe me . =/ . I for one have had enough of him already .
@scottweise18 Well the only thing that we can really do is just get as many people together and promote anti Harper group and just get more people aware and do what ever it takes legally.
If we split the vote tomorrrow Harper will probably be re-elected, with another minority. We all need to rally our support behind Layton. I traditionally vote Liberal but just can't do it this time. I decided that whoever was leading in the polls on election day (Liberal/NDP) would get my vote - its the NDP this time.
That is like Obama saying that Americans don't care that i violated the constitution and got us into an illegal war in Libya, shoot it has hurt his poll numbers.

Harper has got my vote. This election is about giving the conservatives a majority so they can get things done, and we don't have another election every 2 years. By ending corporate subsidies and raising business taxes, those pinko liberal bastards would drive jobs out of Canada. Harper is the only one who seems focused on increasing efficiency and creating jobs (and those are private, sustainable jobs and not jobs funded by tax dollars).
Thanks so much for posting this. Strangely, you can't find this clip anywhere on the media, and this is THE ONLY issue of this election. Either Harper is in contempt; or the Opposition is playing games, in which case the Opposition is in contempt. Either way, somebody is in contempt. Go vote on 2 May!
it was a parliamentary motion passed only for political/hyperpartisan reasons. Harper will get a majority on May 2 and he will be the best PM we've ever had
@1r0nsn1p3r Totally agree, we need to get rid of this pompous ass, he will turn Canada into an Egypt or a Libya, we are a country of laws- and that means for Stephen Harper too.
@1r0nsn1p3r: I'm from Ontario, but I've also lived in other provinces. I'm more of the feeling that we need to start thinking about our country as a whole. Mr Layton would not be a worthy leader of this great nation, in my opinion. I don't believe anyone in the running would be.
@TheBairdo Problem is : Canadians do care, if we are not a nation of laws -that our government must obey -then we become an Egypt. If Harper could he would disallow all protesters forever and declare a State of National Emergency. The G20 in Toronto was proof of this, and the over 1 billion dollars was far more costly as the Auditor General will reveal. Harper hired secret security police worth millions of dollars of contracts (that's taxpayers money -not his)
Steve-O is wrong, we do care about our leaders blowing off Parliament with contempt and he is right, that we do care about our economic well-being.. this is why we want answers on the true price of the largest military purchase in Canadian history, we do care when you kill off Canadian jobs with your anti-protectionist stance, we do care when you tell us that we no longer have a Canadian economy or when you tell us we need your version of enlightened sovereignty!
Actually, we do care - despite your adoption of some of the most pathetic and transparent of American-style campaigning tactics, we are paying attention to what you DO, not what you SAY, you lying, criminal little fuck. We're also aware of just how hard you're working with the US to subvert Canadian Sovereignty under the aegis of Deep Integration, but your fear-mongering will not work. You may be in the pocket of corporate America, be we're not, and you will fail.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
we dont care , i dont compared to the 100 million scandels of the last liberal governement ill take harper any day of the week he has led us out of a world disaster THANK YOU HARPER FOR YOUR GLORIOUS LEADER SHIP
@CNbismarck I care, I would care regardless if it were a Conservative or a Liberal found in contempt.. makes no difference to me! I'm a Canadian first. This is not really even a left/right issue, this is an Constitutional issue, a legal issue.. to convince people that criminal activity is part of the political process or can be remedied via the political process is part of the scam.
@1r0nsn1p3r: I don't know if I trust Layton either. I'd like to, but this is a really critical time, and we need a strong leader who genuinely has our best interests at heart. I don't see anyone offering what we really need right now. :(
Canadians are so angry with Harper and his Conservatives. This video might seem like propoganda, but I think of it as venting. We're fed up with this man and we want him out.
I also want to point out that cutting taxes (like Harper plans to do) will likely result in less funding for things like healthcare and education. both of those things are already suffering, at least in Alberta.
I really hope he doesn't get re-elected. maybe if there's a better voter turnout this time we won't get stuck with him again. last time there was only a 58% voter turnout. That alone disgusts me. PLEASE VOTE THIS TIME PEOPLE!
I can't count how many times i've heard him say 'Canadian public doesn't care' and that is such bull! We care deeply you piece of shit - clearly you don't get the hint! I wish we had a Vendetta day in which we all storm parliament and let them know who owns that bitch. If i hear Harper say 'Canadians doesn't care' (one more time) im going to do it myself...screw you guys
with all these comments , what everyone forgets is all politics are not about the people itsabout the parties and their leaders, they all do wrong! just remember that.
fuck harper, this guy will turn us into the Us. He wants to get rid of long gun registry, put teens in jail for experimenting with marijuana, he lies about taxes when asked, he's destroying canada's health care system,and he rapes little children (sorry got a little carried away) . But, seriously he's the worst fucking primeminister since bryan mulroney, who not surprisingly was also a conservative. LIBERALS, GREEN PARTY AND, NDP SHOULD ALL MERGE AND GET THE MAJORITY VOTE.
Remember that the reason for the contempt charge was the failure to produce true cost accounting of several major budgetary items. Canada cannot cut taxes while increasing spending without producing massive deficits that add to our $500 billion+ debt. We are a small country by population - tax revenue must come from somewhere and it must be used responsibly. Mr. Harper you have FAILED as an economic leader.
He's an IDIOT plan and simple. He's arrogant thinking that the Canadian public does not care about the parliamentary procedures... It smacks of arrogance - almost to the point - that he thinks we could not possible understand(uneducated) the process or how government is conducted... He needs to seek professional help quickly!
My, GOD, how quick can we change this government???!!!!!
The NDP are the only hope for Canada's sovereignty. When Harper says "there isn't really a Canadian economy anymore, it's a global economy", "it means a loss of national sovereignty" and "we need a global governance" the Canadian public should be very concerned. Also in light of the head of CSIS warning the Canadian public about Canadian political figures having fallen under foreign influence. When innocent protestors are stormed by riot police, something is terribly wrong.
@profbc Shame on you for saying Shame on You to this, or any other thing you feel we should be shamed by. It's the favorite phrase used by Republicans (and now Conservatives) whenever they are caught being the bastards that they are. Shame on You for not showing raw footage, and then Shame on You if you do show raw footage for some other asinine reason that I will invent.
The only thing I am ashamed of is our Prime Minister. He's a crook and a tyrant and would be a dictator given the chance.
"The Canadian public don't care about the manoeuvres in Parliament and the wording of various motions. The Canadian public care about their economic well-being and the standing of our country in the world."
I hate it as much as the next person when politicians say "Canadians want this or Canadians think that..." . I am just saying this vid is doctored and that can never be a good thing, no matter who does it.
@profbc Your quote is also doctored by your standard, his little speech obviously goes beyond even what you have written. I take no comfort in his previous words even after adding in the rest of it.. "The Canadian public care about their economic well-being and the standing of our country in the world." Its obvious we care about that, the problem is HE doesn't care! He agreed to resist protectionist measures, he stated Canada no longer has an economy..the list goes on and on.
Respond to this video... I wouldn't say this film is "doctored", I would say its "edited". If people wan't to hear more of what this sniveling idiot has to say they are encouraged to search for it. I'm pretty confident after hearing the rest of what he has to say, the main points will still stand. To try and minimize that by laying blame on an edited video may have worked on people several years ago but that shit is getting tired these days.. we all know who Harper represents..
@NAUresistance -- CBC carried Harper's delivery following his meeting with GG on March 26. Question asked, 17:28. Response begins 17:45 at cbc [dot] ca/news/canada/story/2011/03/26/cv-election-writ [dot] html
@profbc@profbc How was it doctored? Harper was asked a question, and he gave an answer-it's surprising he is out of touch with what Canadians want, an honest, ethical government. If the Canadian government doesn't follow laws, and procedures of Parliament -what does Canada become? Closer to an Egypt or a Libya where one dictator makes up laws and disobeys the country's established system of government that has served us for over 150 years.
@profbc Are you so partisan that you are willing to ignore that every major media outlet present at Harper's press conference reported that he responded exactly that way to that very question????
@profbc Are you so partisan that you are willing to ignore that every major media outlet present at Harper's press conference reported that he responded exactly that way to that very question????
@profbc Doctored implies deceit, this video was edited to isolate a point. By hearing the rest of what he says right after this in no way erases all of this.. people can check it out for themselves if they want to see the whole thing, I have full faith that even after they do, this issues we have will still remain the same. Defend the Conservative Party if you must, don't defend an individual that has betrayed our trust and is in contempt of our Parliament.
just because I do'nt watch the parliamentary channel, does'nt mean I do'nt care if proper procedure is followed.If we re-elect this clown then we really are as stupid as he obviously thinks we are.
@panto5310 we, Harper broke the constitution right? that's why he got the contempt of the parliament. That means Canadians still see the importance of obeying the constitution
@homer30 it means that parliament still sees the importance of obeying the constitution, whether or not that is a big issue among the average Canadian is up to them. I for one care more about the candidates platform
@flittingorg no he's saying focus on the main election issues like the budget and economy, all of which have a much larger impact on the average Canadian
@Neonectria People don't care. Canadians are politically the most apathetic on the planet. As long as "liberal" continues to be used a dirty word in popular media, I don't see the Conservatives ever losing their seat in government.
The implication, of course, on the part of Harper, is that the fellow that asked the question isn't part of the Canadian public. Or at the very least those of us who ask these kinds of pointed questions aren't part of Harper's "Canadian public."
Of course harper does not actually say what he is being quoted as saying. The motion was passed, but that does not allow the government to defend it's actions, or for the opposition to even make a specific allegation, or charge.
The day I see a politician say "I am getting the law passed that allows you the public to vote on ME the P.M. directly as to whether or not i'm fired from my JOB based on my actions while SERVING you the public". Thats the day i'll start voting....until then theres really not much accountability for anything when they would literally have to murder somebody before something was enacted against them...even then, they still might get away with it.
@hexusziggurat assuming that all politicians are the same is the kind of lazy, apathetic attitude that saddles us with men like Harper. They're counting on low voter turnout so that only their true believers will have the power to sway the election. Yes, the Liberals are bad, but these guys are genuinely worse. Please, don't use cynicism as an excuse in this election. Look at who can stop the Conservative in your riding. If you think these guys are bad now, just imagine them with a majority.
@eastvandb Cynicism !! HAH. I'm not looking to stop conservatives...cause then i'll be looking to stop liberals for trouncing our local healthcare.....then i'll be looking to stop NDP locally for screwing things up...then so on and so on. The only way you get people to perform ON THE JOB....is when they know there is IMMEDIATE reprocusions for doing a crap job or wasting monies. Thats what a job is all about...unfortunatey they all get protected by lame rules where they can just float & collect.
Excuse me, Stephen, but you do NOT speak for me & I DO care that you broke the Law. I am sick of pseudo-intellectual imbeciles presuming to speak for 'the little people' who they think are too dense; apathetic; innocent; or naive to speak for themselves. It is no wonder the South African gov't asked Canada how to deal with their 'other' population. Apartheid mind (ie: the ppl r too stupid to think for or look after themselves so we must do it for them.) seems encoded in a politician's DNA.
For those who are saying the Harper government turned around our economy, that's a big ol' lie too. Sixty countries recovered better than we did so far, including some countries which we view as "badly off". Google the Progressive Economics Forum, and search for that article.
I'm Canadian and I care. It's time to oust this criminal, dictator, mathematically challenged douchebag. The only reason we're as in BAD a shape as we are, is due to the incompetence of Harper and his "mini-me's". Let's have a repeat of 1993 when Mulrooney, who didn't screw the pooch nearly as bad, led to the fall of his party & a return of only TWO SEATS (aka not even official party status!).
Time to recognize the merger of the Conservative/Reform/Alliance Party for what they are. CRAP.
Lets see how well ignatieff does as prime minister. Really, like what politician doesnt waste tax payers money. If the liberals get control, we are all fucked!!!! Our banking system is great, and our economy is doing really well considering the circumstances. kurt9898 hit the nail on the head, ignateiff is a bigger douche. The journey000 doesnt speak for me, ive bigger waste than that on parliment hill
@lordrazr Despite their problems the Liberals built the banking system and left the economy in better shape than it is now. I'll take that pill over the Conservative poison any day. Educate yourself before posting quadruple exclamation points.
@oscarfellini one good action doesn't offset one breaking of the law. We the public oft times see no real good results for the "people" so when anything finally does happen in a "good" way, we tend to be forgiving of all the bad crap thats hauled along with that party. Both parties have had a good shot at running the country...if they can't perform with results in the first year...they're fired...onto the next group and so on. We need to be willing to remove bad politicians from politics.
imN0Ttheone - What is democracy if the government was not accountable to the parliament, to the MPs who were elected by their respective constituents? This is not the first minority government in Canadian history, but this is the first government found in contempt of parliament in Canadian history and the first in the Commonwealth too.
kurt9898 - I hope you remember how much federal debt Chretien had paid off before Harper took office. What Harper did during the recession was just increase government spending to keep the economy afloat, which is the right thing to do. However, it was possible to increase so much in government spending because the federal debt was low. I honestly would give the credit to Chretien.
Canada is leading the wold right now.. Why do any of you think now is a good time to change leaders? Michael Ignatieff is even more of a bigger douch then Harper, and even more of a thief. Give your head a shake ppl, our government has pulled us out this recession, and has restored and created more jobs than were lost in the first place. now is not the right time for change..
Harper is right the whole contempt thing was just political theatre that no one except political hacks care about . Harper has done a great job and will get a majority this time around .
It is formidable to me that people all over the world are dying ( litterally ) to access democracy and this man tells us we won't care if he destroys it.
The truth is most Canadians don't care about the manoeuvres in parliament and the wording of various motions, Harper totally right on there. If you walk down the street and ask people what they think about the Gov't being in contempt of parliament 90% will have no idea what you are talking about. If you ask me they should be concerned with it... but he is right most people couldn't care less. That is why so many people don't vote, they don't care.
@1988scottcarey You just said "People who vote,they don't care!", now you say "I'm going to vote.." so you are saying you don't care and are going to vote. Will you be voting Liberal or NDP?
If Harper gets re-elected, I'm going to have to come to the conclusion that the Canadian public might be stupider than Americans in the southern states. And that's BAD. Step up Canada, and get this conservative, corporatist, anti-human rights, anti-women's rights ASSHOLE out of office (and eventually out of this country)
I care deeply about this issue, Mr Harper. He thinks we're all too stupid to understand what happens in parliament - the reason committees are made up of so many members of the opposition is CONSERVATIVES ARE THE MINORITY! Stop trying to run this country like you have a majority mandate, because you don't. You have lied to us and abused your power for long enough.
The Canadian People find you in Contempt of Parliament!
Excuse me sir, but i do care about the motions, you are my servant, working for me and paid with my tax dollars, you owe me an explanation that i am willing to hear so give a better answer to us now, will you
What an obnoxious sociopath attempting to speak on behalf of the Canadian people that they only care about the end result, regardless of the treachery and deceit involved.
He's a thief (yes i think spending over a billion dollars on a police state for your G20 cronies that the Canadian people never approved or wanted is theft as is the 70 billion dollar underestimate of those fighter jets)and a tyrant(police state, fake laws, unaccountability) and a, well, just a fucking little bitch. OH and let me tell you something ste phen I CARE DEEPLY about all the shit you've pulled , you treasonous little turd.
@TheJourney000 I so agree, he puts a little spin on to any of the negative things they have stood for. I can hardly stand to see his photo ops on tv any more during the campagn. Notice when asked the tough questions how he loses his phoney smile and looks uncomfortable. He says liberals are overspending in their plan - like u said, what about the planes, G20 etc. etc. etc ugh he is unbelievable!
@gwilll2006 ....totally, it's all so very ridiculous! Not sure how the PM of Canada can be a PM of Canada when he's willing to sell out the people and the country in the name of global governance. Treason anyone? Time to go Stephen, and feel free to let the door hit ya on the way out!!!

Actually, we do care - despite your adoption of some of the most pathetic and transparent of American-style campaigning tactics, we are paying attention to what you DO, not what you SAY, you lying, criminal little fuck. We're also aware of just how hard you're working with the US to subvert Canadian Sovereignty under the aegis of Deep Integration, but your fear-mongering will not work.

Remember that the reason for the contempt charge was the failure to produce true cost accounting of several major budgetary items. Canada cannot cut taxes while increasing spending without producing massive deficits that add to our $500 billion+ debt. We are a small country by population - tax revenue must come from somewhere and it must be used responsibly. Mr. Harper you have FAILED as an economic leader.

The NDP are the only hope for Canada's sovereignty. When Harper says "there isn't really a Canadian economy anymore, it's a global economy", "it means a loss of national sovereignty" and "we need a global governance" the Canadian public should be very concerned. Also in light of the head of CSIS warning the Canadian public about Canadian political figures having fallen under foreign influence. When innocent protestors are stormed by riot police, something is terribly wrong.

He agreed to resist protectionist measures, he stated Canada no longer has an economy..the list goes on and on.

@profbc @profbc How was it doctored? Harper was asked a question, and he gave an answer-it's surprising he is out of touch with what Canadians want, an honest, ethical government. If the Canadian government doesn't follow laws, and procedures of Parliament -what does Canada become? Closer to an Egypt or a Libya where one dictator makes up laws and disobeys the country's established system of government that has served us for over 150 years.

kurt9898 - I hope you remember how much federal debt Chretien had paid off before Harper took office. What Harper did during the recession was just increase government spending to keep the economy afloat, which is the right thing to do. However, it was possible to increase so much in government spending because the federal debt was low. I honestly would give the credit to Chretien.
