That香蕉视频直播檚 what Central Okanagan-Similkameen-Nicola MP Dan Albas told a Kelowna Chamber luncheon on Thursday, Feb. 22 just hours after Russia invaded Ukraine. Albas and Kelowna-Lake Country MP Tracy Gray were the main speakers at the event.

Albas said he agreed with most of what Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said Thursday in imposing sanctions against Russia.

香蕉视频直播淲e need to have a united front when it comes to these kinds of challenges,香蕉视频直播 said Albas. 香蕉视频直播淲e need to make it very clear that we will not tolerate this and anyone in the Putin regime that we can sanction, we should sanction, and we should encourage other countries to do the same.香蕉视频直播

Gray was in agreement with Albas regarding sanctions and Canada standing with its allies.

香蕉视频直播淥ur heart goes out to the people of Ukraine,香蕉视频直播 she said. 香蕉视频直播淲e do have a lot of people in our community, in the Central Okanagan, that have family back home (Ukraine). So we need to be there to support them during this really difficult time.香蕉视频直播

One of the other topics Gray and Albas spoke to was the federal government香蕉视频直播檚 use of the Emergencies Act to remove protesters from the streets around Parliament Hill. Gray said the Conservatives had asked immediately, and on several more occasions, what did the government need that they didn香蕉视频直播檛 have in place already?

香蕉视频直播淗ow can you go to the most extreme measure without having done other actions before then?香蕉视频直播 asked Gray. 香蕉视频直播淲e never had any answers from the government. We had seen many times in history where there were a lot of crises in Canada that never justified the Emergencies Act. So for a number of reasons we weren香蕉视频直播檛 supportive.香蕉视频直播

Albas said Prime Minister Trudeau didn香蕉视频直播檛 help the process and only added fuel to the fire. He said government should have used a different approach than the Emergencies Act.

香蕉视频直播淲e香蕉视频直播檙e a country of law,香蕉视频直播 said Albas. The party (Conservatives) has always taken the position that we will listen to people. We will try to represent as best we can in the House of Commons and raise views, some views the Trudeau government has dealt as out of hand. At the end of the day, we need to have good debates in the House where people feel represented. We also need to have the rule on the streets. That香蕉视频直播檚 how it works.香蕉视频直播
