  1. It just shows what a joke it all is… 2 french language debates and only 1 in english? Who are they playing to?…

    1. From an Alberta and probably an overall western perspective everything in this country under Trudeau is about Quebec it’s all on display in this election eith more French than English debates etc. We buy Quebec loyalty with Alberta’s money (equalization payments etc). No debates about western issues on a national stage. Fewer & fewer reasons for Alberta to remain part of Canada It’s all so insulting.

    2. @StraightSniper yes they don.t speak english like MAD M. saying he a true CAnadian
      just QUE. HAVE VOTE BLUE

    3. To be fair, originally there were 3 English debates planned and 2 French ones. Trudeau decided not to take part in the maclean one at the beginning of the campaign and the other English debate was cancelled because Trudeau decided not to show up either. In that sense, Trudeau by agreeing to participate in the other ”optional” TVA french debate did favor the French language.

    4. @StraightSniper Quebec has roughly half its citizens speaking fluent English even if it isn’t an official Quebec language. When comparing to the rest of the provinces, how many provinces can claim they know the 2nd official language as much as Quebec does? Probably 1 being New Brunswick. If anything, the rest of Canada fits much more the rationale of choosing not to learn French than Quebec not to learn English.

  2. Blocs are the most irrelevant party in all of Canadian history, it’s almost impossible for them to win just a minority

    1. @john ross martens can you please elaborate. I can see the ppc coming in 3rd. Not bad for a party that started a year ago

  3. May (est folle) is evidently completely neurotically insane. We’re all going to die in less than 12 years, if we don’t take action now, “Greta Thunberg is right,” there is a climate emergency, do you feel the panic yet, if not what is the matter with you, don’t you care about the environment type of thing. She makes Trudeau look completely main stream, and conservative. IMO, how can Canadians allow a mentally deranged person run for public office? Ca n’as pas d’allure!

  4. Right. No mention until 3/4 of the war through, then acknowledgement that Max will get more than 2%. You’re all going to look like the morons that you truely are.

  5. So, Trudeau can say that Quebec should control immigration to protect their culture, but when Bernier says the same thing about the ROC, that means he is a terrible racist? What?

  6. Then there’s a French guy with damaged wing (arm), contributing his question, he works in Toronto and complains he can’t get services in French (in Toronto)!!! Bro.why did you move to Toronto? Then May launches and says that we can expect “modernization”, in the policy regarding this affair, which is supposed to imply that even in Vancouver a French person can expect to receive French services in British Columbia? Are you kidding me? Chances are we’ll get Mandarin before French. Trudeau’s answer isn’t even worth a mention.

  7. Check out what a couple of journalists asked Trudeau post-debate about the school that he used to “teach” at…

  8. Bravo Philip Marcil!! Bringing up the two Canadians illegally held , and currently rotting in Chinese prison, which the current far left Liberal government has not shown any signals publicly to get these Canadians back. I ask, why hasn’t Trudeau gone on record to face China and DEMAND THEY RETURN OUR TWO CANADIANS???????????????

  9. May’s French is so bad, can’t understand what she’s saying relative secret trade dealing with China, relative previous Harper government’s agreement…Harper’s fault again…

  10. Im only 45secs in. Lol bet this interview will not mention Max. Like all Canadian MSM is doing during elections

    Edit* 6min til Max is mentioned briefly

  11. Do we not have one single pro-trump journalist or politician?

    Crow will be put on the endangered species list theyll be so many dining on it

  12. Love how you socialist propaganda mouthpieces, you barely even mention the ppc. Gotta suppress your competition.
