Well in Australia now, you can only yell and/or call people names if you're from the government, because the speaker is on your side. For example Member of the Opposition: *"The Morrison government is unstable, and is not fit to govern Australia."* And he will be promptly shut down and/or thrown out But Deputy Prime Minister Michael McCormack: *"That's right Mr Speakah what a disgrace the member is, you're a disgrace to this parliament, you don't even live in your electorate!"*

TayZonday LOL, with a hearty , big laugh, I'm going to say no, probably like a lot of Canadians ! That being said, for you , I'm sure it will make getting Trump out of his office, oh, all the much more sweet ! Cheers :)
I'm disappointed that not one person thought of ripping a loud one into the microphone. It's the perfect response. This is the land of Terrence and Phillip, dammit!
maybe you should watch more Aussie movies and actually pay attention to the characters......I won't bother to give you the clue you need to win this level. Go back to cleaning the spitoons,son.
I remember when Elizabeth May got drunk in the press gallery and went on stage, started swearing like a sailor, cracking jokes that nobody laughed at, started playing music on her phone, and got so unprofessional that Lisa Raitt had to come on stage to pull her off. But all of a sudden, the word 'fart' is too much for her. And they wonder why nobody takes the Green Party seriously.
The discussion quickly changed from Alberta, to the use of a word. Rempel made a very accurate statement in that room, a statement that sadly came true.
I remember my mom had to drag me to some PTA thing when I was about 5, and the issue of appropriate language came up. I announced to a room full of teachers and parents that my daddy said the F-word all the time, to which my mother hastily replied "Fart! She means fart!"
+chbclark That's right, and as leader of the Green Party it is her duty to speak out against a potential pollution catastrophe whether gaseous, solid or liquid.
I love how May was told to sit down twice by the House Speaker. She needs to get the stick out of her ass and stop trying to distract from the actual issues that need to be addressed. Good job, Ms. Rempel.
Elizabeth May has such delicate sensibilities! That's why she said, on stage at an Ottawa press gallery dinner, that a terrorist had "more class than the whole fucking cabinet."
Holy have they lost their minds? 😂 unparlementary words? Wtf man I expected more from canadian politics, if she was using swear words I would understand but get real. That lady shouldn't watch Dutch politicians she would lose he fucking mind hahahahha
Only respectful 'parliamentary words like peoplekind'are permitted.Tut tut ! Platullance would be more appropriate? I guess the 'old fart' identifies with the term and felt threatened and needs her 'safe space' !
This reminds me of a substitute teacher I had that yelled at me and lectured me for not TAPING OVER A STAPLE so I would not get “poked” by the staple. While she was doing this a kid was getting beaten up in the back of the class. This substitute was later banned from subbing for telling a 10 year old he was gonna get blown up by ISIS on his vacation to Europe.
Oxford Dictionary: 1 An emission of wind from the anus. ‘I thought that everyone understood that farts are funny.’ 2. A boring or contemptible person: Elizabeth May! ‘She is such an old fart’ So if speaking English is unparliamentary, what language are we permitted speak: Islamic?
The reality is fart is the common parlance for flatulence, used in the abstract would be barely borderline unparliamentary, but the Rempel used fart as the literal in an analogy. Therefore it's not unparliamentary. If she'd have said that the opposition was a fart face and she should go back to Mustard Fart Station and leave politics to people that aren't offended by adult conversations, then fart would be unparliamentary.
Oh my Lord, making an issue over the word fart? How is fart unparliamentary? Would you rather she used more syllables to say the same thing? Elizabeth May, you can make a better argument than that.
Canada needs to get rid of parliament and do their own thing. Don’t be like the UK. The leader in the room is wearing a cape and a Quaker oatmeal tie for Christ sake!
She's awesome, "Mr speaker I said fart I will not retract my fart I stand by my fart and I take no lessons from the opposition for farts " opposition "I do not forgive farts" shed hate me then rofl 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
You know, normally Elizabeth May is pretty reasonable, but seriously? This is not a Kindergarten classroom, aren't there better ways to spend your time than arguing about using the word "fart?" It was not even targeted at anyone in particular, like I can understand if maybe she had said "The liberals are a bunch of farts" that would be disrespectful, but the context in which she used the word fart in this case is fine, and debating it is just a waste of time.
Okay now we are dealing with the more important issues in parliament. My God I NEVER realized how screwed this country has become with our current day politicians. The inmates are definitely running the asylum.
All of it, they should just separate and leave us alone... till they run out of coal and the tar sands are depleted, that is. Then they'll want back in, I imagine.
One Canada - We are so tired of seeing all the leaders and politician standing there spend hours and hours of their life arguing against each other wrong doing to gain votes? Please stop This is time to work all as one, One Canada, united. Put yr heads together and actually care for each other, not battle each other and create more chaos. In order for a nation to be strong. It needs to be united. All your resources and money united and allocated visely. Not going into someone pocket. There is karma when you are high officials getting paid highly. You are responsible for your actions. If you really care. Show us your power now. How you going to resolve homelessness and crimes? Yes u spend money? did it work? No, cause u didnt really look at the root of the problem. 1)Before you bring in immigrant and have more children. Please set up educational system that teach morals, teach kids and parents true financial knowledge, have them invest at young age, then everything is paid for and self sufficient, safe government thousand of dollars in social welfare, it should be building from ground foundation and not trying to fix broken building. You can only patch up building here and there call fake jobs. But if there is foundation peoblems, it needs to rebuild. If you dont rebuild, before you know it. Everything is deteriorating. Body, mind and soul all corrupted. We are all here for a purpose, that is to help each other out. We should be one big nation, working together and not working against each other. If you are christian, catholic, and all religion. if all are god child why fighting against each other, doesnt make sense. We all should be expressing kindess and if we encounter someone, ensure they are better off. The time is now, please united and do something to rebuild canada before it become 3rd world. Education system and moral is foundation of the future. Should look and employ some of the good example i see in some countries. See how singapre turn polution and recycles into clean air, land and water. Dont be blinded. Open your eyes and lights of you own true nature. May our nation be healed and be light for others. Please inspire each other to be better and not to highten the ego and step down on other to promote oneself. That is not leadership. Great leaders are wariors that save peoples lives and turn the wold to be better place. Blessings.
