[00:01:13] FORMER U.S. TRADE REPRESENTATIVE CATHERINE TAI JOINS ME.
[00:01:16] IT STARTS NOW ON "ROSEMARY
[00:01:18] BARTON LIVE."
[00:01:24] HELLO, THERE. THANK YOU FOR JOINING US. BUSY WEEK FOR PRIME MINISTER
[00:01:27] CARNEY AFTER A JAM PACKED SUMMER AND THE HOUSE OF COMMONS
[00:01:31] RETURNING TOMORROW. >> Prime Minister Carney: THE LAST SEVEN DAYS WE STOOD
[00:01:35] SHOULDER TO SHOULDER WITH AN ALLY. WE'VE CATALYZED RECORD
[00:01:39] INVESTMENT INTO OUR COUNTRY. WE'VE DEEPENED OUR TIES WITH EUROPE.
[00:01:43] IT'S A LOT BUT THAT WAS JUST THE WARM-UP.
[00:01:46] GOING TO CARRY THIS MOMENTUM INTO THE HOUSE.
[00:01:48] THIS IS A CRUCIAL SESSION OF THE HOUSE OF COMMONS.
[00:01:52] WE'RE GOING TO INTRODUCE SOME OF
[00:01:54] THE MOST CONSEQUENTIAL LEGISLATION.
[00:01:57] NOT JUST OF THIS GOVERNMENT BUT IN DECADES. >> Rosemary: LEGISLATION NOT
[00:02:01] THE ONLY THING ON THE PRIME MINISTER'S AGENDA.
[00:02:04] HE PLANS TO FLY TO NEW YORK
[00:02:07] TOMORROW TO ATTEND THE UNITED NATIONS GENERAL ASSEMBLY.
[00:02:10] OTHER WORLD LEADER WILL ATTEND. DONALD TRUMP, EMMANUEL MACRON, WHO THE PRIME MINISTER IS
[00:02:14] MEETING AT THIS HOUR. PRIME MINISTER CARNEY WILL FACE
[00:02:17] QUESTIONS HERE AT HOME THE HOUSE OF COMMONS SITTING AGAIN.
[00:02:21] OPPOSITION PARTIES WILL HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO CHALLENGE THE LIBERALS AFTER A SUMMER THAT
[00:02:24] BROUGHT A FAILED TRADE DEAL WITH THE U.S. AND PUSH FOR CLOSER
[00:02:28] TIES WITH EUROPE.
[00:02:30] EARLIER I SPOKE TO GOVERNMENT
[00:02:33] HOUSE LEADER STEPHEN MacKINNON ABOUT THE LIBERAL PRIORITY.
[00:02:37] NICE TO SEE YOU AGAIN. I'M GOING TO GO THROUGH SOME OF
[00:02:40] THE THINGS THAT WE HAVE SORT OF
[00:02:43] BEEN TOLD BY THE PRIME MINISTER OTHERS ARE GOING TO HAPPEN OVER
[00:02:46] THE FALL AND GET A SENSE OF WHERE THEY STAND IN TERMS OF
[00:02:50] PRIORITIES. I'LL START WITH THE ONE PROJECT ONE REVIEW THAT THE PRIME
[00:02:53] MINISTER TALKED ABOUT LAST WEEK
[00:02:57] AT THE INVESTMENT SUMMIT THAT ALLOW THE GOVERNMENT TO
[00:02:59] STREAMLINE APPROVALS AND FAST
[00:03:03] TRACK PROJECTS. IS THIS AS THE PRIME MINISTER
[00:03:05] HAS SUGGESTED A LEGISLATIVE PRIORITY?
[00:03:09] >> ABSOLUTELY. WE'LL BE COMING FORWARD WITH
[00:03:12] SIGNIFICANT ECONOMIC LEGISLATION THAT THE PRIME MINISTER SPOKE
[00:03:15] ABOUT AT THE INVESTMENT SUMMIT
[00:03:19] AND HAS REFERRED TO ON MANY OCCASIONS.
[00:03:23] WE CONSULTED EXTENSIVELY EVEN
[00:03:25] EXTENDED THOSE CONSULTATIONS
[00:03:27] WITH THE TRANSPORT SECTOR WITH
[00:03:30] LABOUR WITH EMPLOYERS. OF COURSE, WITH INDIGENOUS
[00:03:34] GROUPS AND OTHERS. WE HAVE THIS LEGISLATION THAT
[00:03:37] WILL MAKE OUR ECONOMY STRONGER
[00:03:39] AND PUT CANADA IN A MUCH BETTER POSITION TO COMPETE.
[00:03:43] >> Rosemary: THE GOVERNMENT CONSULTED ON MODERNIZING LABOUR
[00:03:47] RELATIONS THROUGH THE SUMMER. I'M SURE YOU HEARD THERE HAS
[00:03:49] BEEN CONCERNS FROM UNIONS THAT
[00:03:52] IT COULD POSSIBLY COMPROMISE THEIR RIGHT TO STRIKE.
[00:03:55] WHAT WOULD YOU SAY TO UNIONS WHO ARE CONCERNED ABOUT HOW THE GOVERNMENT GOING TO MOVE FORWARD
[00:03:59] ON THIS?
[00:04:01] >> I'M RELUCTANT TO GET IN THE
[00:04:04] SPECIFICS BEFORE THE BILL IS PRESENTED IN THE HOUSE OF COMMONS.
[00:04:07] THERE IS A CONSULTATIONAL RIGHT
[00:04:10] TO STRIKE IN CANADA. THE GOVERNMENT SUPPORTS AND
[00:04:13] RECOGNISES THAT.
[00:04:18] >> Rosemary: MINISTER SAID, THERE ARE BETTER TOOLS NEEDED. WHAT IS YOUR UNDERSTANDING WHAT
[00:04:22] IS NEEDED TO MODERNIZE THAT? >> WITHOUT GETTING INTO TOO MANY
[00:04:25] SPECIFICS, WE DO HAVE TOO MANY
[00:04:31] CONFLICTS, LOCKOUT AND STRIKES IN THE COUNTRY.
[00:04:35] HARMS INVESTMENT. HARMS EMPLOYMENT.
[00:04:37] MAYBE EVEN PARTICULARLY IN UNIONIZED ENVIRONMENTS.
[00:04:40] WE NEED A BETTER FRAMEWORK FOR
[00:04:43] GETTING TO AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE EMPLOYERS AND THEIR
[00:04:47] EMPLOYEES AND THE GOVERNMENT WILL BE PROPOSING WAYS TO
[00:04:51] SUPPORT THAT. >> Rosemary: THERE WERE A LOT OF CONSULTATIONS FOR THE BUDGET.
[00:04:54] THIS IS THE SECOND FALL BUDGET THAT WILL BE HAPPENING AT SOME POINT.
[00:04:57] I'M NOT GOING TO ASK YOU FOR A DATE.
[00:05:00] I WONDER HOW MUCH OF THE FOCUS
[00:05:02] WILL BE THE GOVERNMENT SORT OF
[00:05:04] CENTRING A LOT OF PIECES AROUND THE ECONOMY. HOW IMPORTANT DRIVING THE BUDGET
[00:05:08] OVER THE FALL IS GOING TO BE FOR YOU?
[00:05:12] >> THE GOVERNMENT AS IT WILL BE
[00:05:13] ON THE LEGISLATIVE FRONT IS
[00:05:18] OBVIOUSLY TAKEN WITH CREATING JOBS, MAKING OUR ECONOMY BE ABLE
[00:05:22] TO TRADE WITH THE WORLD AND
[00:05:26] INCREASING PROSPERITY. WORKING WITH THOSE SECTORS THAT
[00:05:29] HAVE BEAFFECTED UNJUSTIFIED TRA.
[00:05:37] AND AFFORDABILITY FOR CANADIANS. WE THOUGH THAT THE PRICE AT THE
[00:05:40] PUMP SPIKED BECAUSE OF CONFLICTS
[00:05:43] ABROAD.
[00:05:44] WE THOUGH THAT GROCERY BILLS
[00:05:48] WEIGH HEAVILY ON CANADIAN
[00:05:52] HOUSEHOLDS. AFFORDABILITY IS A MAJOR PREOCCUPATION OF THE GOVERNMENT
[00:05:54] ALONGSIDE OUR CONTINUED PROSPERITY.
[00:05:58] >> Rosemary: THE CONSERVATIVES WILL BE PUSHING ONCE THE TRADE
[00:06:01] DEAL FELL APART FOR YOU TO BRING
[00:06:03] THE HOUSE BACK SO THERE COULD BE
[00:06:06] A REAL DEBATE ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED. THEY WANTED FURTHER TRANSPARENCY
[00:06:09] ABOUT WHAT WAS ON THE TABLE AND WHAT WAS LEFT BEHIND.
[00:06:13] WHY DIDN'T YOU DO THAT? WILL YOU BE MORE TRANSPARENT IN
[00:06:16] THE FOUCH -- FUTURE IF WE GET
[00:06:19] BACK TO THE TABLE WITH THE U.S.?
[00:06:23] >> WE WERE MIRROR DAYS, WEEKS AWAY FROM THE SCHEDULED RETURN
[00:06:26] OF PARLIAMENT. THE CONSERVATIVES WILL NOW HAVE
[00:06:29] THEIR CHANCE TO PUT THEIR POSITIONS ON TABLE.
[00:06:32] WE LOOK FORWARD TO HEARING WHAT
[00:06:35] THOSE MAY BE.
[00:06:37] ON MORE GENERAL BASIS, YOU THINK
[00:06:41] SEEN UNFOLD THROUGHOUT THE MONTH OF SEPTEMBER AN INVESTMENT
[00:06:44] SUMMIT WHERE THE WORLD CAME TO
[00:06:48] CANADA FROM THE LARGEST INVESTMENTS IN THE WORLD LOOKING
[00:06:50] TO PLACE THEIR BETS ON OUR
[00:06:53] COUNTRY AND ON THE THINGS THAT WE HAVE THAT THE WORLD WANTS.
[00:06:57] THAT CAN PUT CANADIANS TO WORK.
[00:06:59] YOU SAW THE PRIME MINISTER VISIT
[00:07:03] THE EUROPEAN UNION AND GIVE WHAT I THINK MANY FELT WAS A LANDMARK
[00:07:07] SPEAK, A VERY IMPORTANT SPEECH,
[00:07:11] INCREDIBLE DEVELOPMENTS ON THAT FRONT.
[00:07:13] THIS IS NOT BEEN AN INACTIVE GOVERNMENT.
[00:07:17] THE MAIN THING TO THAT'S
[00:07:19] IMPORTANT TO GET ACROSS TO YOUR VIEWERS, AS THE PRIME MINISTER
[00:07:23] FAMOUSLY SAID.
[00:07:24] WE CAN GIVE OURSELVES FAR MORE
[00:07:27] THAN ANYONE CAN PRETEND TO TAKE AWAY.
[00:07:29] THAT IS THE PART OF THE
[00:07:31] PROGRAMME THAT WE'RE WORKING ON.
[00:07:34] MAKING CANADA STRONGER, CREATING
[00:07:36] JOBS, ATTRACTING INVESTMENT INTO
[00:07:38] OUR COMMUNITIES, DEFENDING THOSE
[00:07:41] WORKERS IN THOSE SECTORS THAT HAVE BEEN AFFECTED, MAKING LIFE
[00:07:44] MORE AFFORDABLE. THAT'S WHAT IT IS TO MAKE CANADA
[00:07:48] STRONGER. THAT'S THE WORK WE'LL BEGIN IN
[00:07:50] ERNST ON MONDAY IN PARLIAMENT. >> Rosemary: THE PRIME
[00:07:53] MINISTER IS HEADED TO NEW YORK FOR THE UNITED NATIONS GENERAL ASSEMBLY ON MONDAY.
[00:07:57] HE HAS SPENT MOST OF THE PAST
[00:08:00] FEW WEEKS DOING INTERNATIONAL
[00:08:03] FOCUS THINGS FOR THE COUNTRY AND
[00:08:05] ON INTERNATIONAL TRIPS.
[00:08:07] HE WANT SUPER PRESENT INSIDE THE HOUSE OF COMMONS IN THE LAST SIT
[00:08:11] BEFORE THE SUMMER BREAK. I WONDER WHETHER YOU THINK HE
[00:08:14] NEEDS TO BE THERE MORE TO BE ANSWERING QUESTIONS?
[00:08:17] >> YOU AND I HAD THIS CONVERSATION AT THE END THE LAST
[00:08:21] SESSION OF PARLIAMENT.
[00:08:22] I WOULD REITERATE AGAIN.
[00:08:25] THE PRIME MINISTER LOVES PARLIAMENT.
[00:08:28] THE PRIME MINISTER RESPECTS PARLIAMENT AND PARLIAMENTARIANS
[00:08:30] AND THE COMMITTEES AND THE
[00:08:32] PROCESSES AND THE DEBATES THAT
[00:08:35] CHARACTERIZE OUR LIFE HERE IN THE HOUSE OF COMMONS.
[00:08:38] YOU CAN EXPECT THE PRIME MINISTER TO CONTINUE TO
[00:08:42] PARTICIPATE IN THOSE WAYS AND
[00:08:46] INCLUDING QUESTION PERIOD. >> Rosemary: I'M GOING TO ASK YOU.
[00:08:49] YOU HAVE TWO JOBS SOMEHOW. YOU'RE MINISTER OF TRANSPORT,
[00:08:53] WHICH ISN'T A SLEEPY JOB EITHER.
[00:08:55] CERTAINLY, IT'S GOING TO TAKE ON EVEN MORE IMPORTANCE GIVEN WHAT
[00:08:59] THE PRIME MINISTER PITCHED THIS PAST WEEK. A PRIVATE INVESTMENT IN FOUR
[00:09:03] MAJOR CANADIAN AIRPORTS.
[00:09:05] YOU MAINTAINED OWNERSHIP OF THE
[00:09:10] LAND ASSET BUT OPERATIONS RUN BY
[00:09:13] PRIVATE OPERATION. HOW WOULD THIS NOT RESULT IN
[00:09:16] MORE EXPENSIVE EXPERIENCE FOR TRAVELERS?
[00:09:20] INVESTORS DON'T DO THINGS LIKE
[00:09:22] THIS UNLESS THEY THINK THEY WILL GET PROFIT.
[00:09:26] HOW WILL YOU ENSURE IT BENEFIT CANADIANS REQUEST
[00:09:30] >> WHAT PRIME MINISTER ANNOUNCED
[00:09:31] WAS A PROGRAMME.
[00:09:34] RESTORES REGIONAL CONNECTIVITY.
[00:09:36] SUPPORTS REGIONS OF CANADA THAT
[00:09:44] HAVE UNAFFORDABLE AIR SERVICE.
[00:09:46] THE PASSENGER EXPERIENCE, THE
[00:09:49] AMOUNT OF TIME IT TAKES PEOPLE TO GET FROM THE CURB, THROUGH
[00:09:52] THE GATE AND ON THE AIRPLANE. WE WANT TO MAKE IMPROVEMENTS IN
[00:09:55] THAT AND INVEST IN THAT.
[00:09:56] WE WANT TO GIVE CANADIANS
[00:10:00] PENSION CAPITAL.
[00:10:02] THE PENSION CAPITAL THAT
[00:10:05] TEACHERS, FIREMEN AND PUBLIC
[00:10:08] SERVANTS AND NURSES INVEST IN EVERYDAY.
[00:10:11] THEY INVEST AND HAVE FOR DECADES ALL OVER THE WORLD.
[00:10:14] HAVE BECOME KNOWN SOME OF THE
[00:10:17] BEST FACILITY OR AIRPORT
[00:10:19] MANAGERS ON THE PLANET IN OTHER
[00:10:24] MARKETS. WE WILL BE LOOKING TO IMPLEMENT THIS PROGRAMME THAT WILL MAKE
[00:10:27] AIR TRAVEL BETTER.
[00:10:29] REGIONAL CONNECTIVITY BETTER AND
[00:10:32] GIVE CANADIAN PENSION FUNDS AND
[00:10:35] OTHERS THE OPPORTUNITY TO OPERATE THESE ASSETS AS THEY DO
[00:10:38] SUCCESSFULLY ALL OVER THE WORLD AND AFFORDABLE.
[00:10:42] WE WILL WRITE IN THOSE CONTRACT MEASURES THAT WILL ENSURE THAT
[00:10:46] FAIR AND OTHER INCREASES ARE NOT
[00:10:50] POSSIBLE. >> Rosemary: I WANT TO HEAR
[00:10:52] MORE ABOUT THAT.
[00:10:56] THE AUSTRALIA WATCHDOG, AUSTRALIA HAS GONE THROUGH THIS
[00:10:59] ALREADY. PRIVATIZED ITS AIRPORT. AIR TICKET PRICES SOARED AFTER
[00:11:03] THAT MOVE. YOU SAY YOU WILL MAKE SURE THAT
[00:11:06] COSTS REMAIN FAIR? WHAT WOULD THAT A LIKE?
[00:11:09] >> WE'VE LOOKED A THE VERILY.
[00:11:13] THERE IS VERY LITTLE OR NO
[00:11:16] CORRELATION BETWEEN THE OPERATING MODEL AN AIRPORT,
[00:11:20] PUBLIC, PRIVATE AND SO ON.
[00:11:23] THOSE FEES THAT ARE EMBEDDED IN
[00:11:25] THE COST OF AN AIR FARE NOW
[00:11:28] FACILITIES IMPROVEMENT FEES AND OTHER FEES. THERE'S NO CORRELATION BETWEEN
[00:11:32] THE OPERATING MODEL OF AN
[00:11:34] AIRPORT AND ITS OWNERSHIP MODEL.
[00:11:38] WE'RE LOOKING TO MAINTAIN THAT
[00:11:41] IN CANADA. AMONG THE LAST IN THE DEVELOPED
[00:11:44] WORLD TO MOVE DOWN THIS ROAD.
[00:11:46] WE'VE SEEN EXPERIENCES IN OTHER PLACES.
[00:11:50] THERE HAVE BEEN LESS DESIRABLE
[00:11:53] OUTCOMES THERE HAVE BEEN VERY
[00:11:56] DESIRABLE OUTCOMES AROUND THE WORLD. WE'RE GOING TO LOOK TO BE
[00:11:59] INSPIRED BY THOSE GOOD EXAMPLES. >> Rosemary: LET'S TALK ABOUT
[00:12:09] CONSERVATIVE PARTY OFFICIAL OPPOSITION OBVIOUSLY GEARING UP FOR THE RETURN OF THE HOUSE OF
[00:12:12] COMMONS TOMORROW. THE CAUCUS MET IN B.C. THIS PAST
[00:12:15] WEEK TO STRATEGIZE AND HEAR FROM THEIR LEADER FOR MORE ON THE
[00:12:19] CONSERVATIVE PRIORITIES THIS FALL.
[00:12:20] CONSERVATIVE HOUSE LEADER,
[00:12:25] ANDREW SCHEER JOINING ME THIS MORNING. I WILL GET BACK TO SOME OF THE
[00:12:29] POINTS THERE THAT STEVEN MacKINNON MADE. LET ME START WITH YOUR CAUCUS
[00:12:33] FROM LAST WEEK. PIERRE POILIEVRE SAID IN HIS
[00:12:36] ADDRESS TO CAUCUS THAT AS PROUD CANADIANS WE MUST REFLECT ON THE
[00:12:40] ROLE OF THE OPPOSITION IN THIS DIFFICULT TIME.
[00:12:42] I DID HEAR OTHERS TALK ABOUT
[00:12:44] WAYS THE OPPOSITION ROLE NEEDS TO CHANGE.
[00:12:47] WILL YOU GUYS BE CHANGING YOUR STRATEGY AT ALL IN THIS UPCOMING
[00:12:51] SITTING IN TERMS HOW YOU HOLD
[00:12:53] THE GOVERNMENT TO ACCOUNT?
[00:12:57] >> WHAT LEADER PIERRE WAS
[00:12:59] TALKING ABOUT WHEN WE FACE CITY
[00:13:01] , WEWANT CANADA TO SUCCEED.
[00:13:12] PIERRE POILIEVRE DID NOT
[00:13:14] CRITICIZE MARK CARNEY ON FOREIGN SOIL.
[00:13:17] BACK HOME, IT'S VERY IMPORTANT THAT WE CRITIQUE THE GOVERNMENT.
[00:13:21] THE CANADIANS DESERVE THE BEST
[00:13:23] OUTCOMES AND RUBBER STAMPING, OR SAYING YES TO EVERYTHING THE
[00:13:27] GOVERNMENT DOES DOESN'T DO THAT FOR THEM.
[00:13:29] WE ARE PROPOSING THINGS TO SAVE CANADIAN MONEY.
[00:13:33] THAT'S THE FOCUS OUR PARLIAMENTARY SESSION. PUSHING THE GOVERNMENT.
[00:13:36] LIKE REMOVING THE FEDERAL TAXES
[00:13:39] OFF GASOLINE. WE WANT TO MAKE THAT MORE LONGER
[00:13:43] TERM AND PORTLANDER RELIEF FOR CANADIANS.
[00:13:46] WE'LL BE FOCUSING ON POINTING
[00:13:48] OUT THAT WHILE THE GOVERNMENT IS
[00:13:51] ON ONE HAND DOING WHAT
[00:13:54] CONSERVATIVES ASKED FOR, THEY
[00:13:56] ARE FILING AHEAD WITH THE FUEL STANDARDS TAX.
[00:14:00] WE'RE GOING TO BE FOCUSED ON
[00:14:01] SAVING CANADIANS MONEY AND HIGHLIGHTING WHERE WASTEFUL
[00:14:06] SPENDING CAN BE ELIMINATED TO BRING DOWN THOSE DEFICITS AND
[00:14:08] EASE UP ON INFLATION. >> Rosemary: LET'S TALK ABOUT
[00:14:11] SOME OF THE ISSUES THERE THAT I
[00:14:13] RAISED WITH THE GOVERNMENT HOUSE
[00:14:17] LEADER.
[00:14:17] THIS IDEA FURTHER PARTNERSHIP
[00:14:22] WITH THE E.U. I WILL START WITH THE PRIORITIZATION AIRPORT
[00:14:24] OPERATIONS FOR PLACES IN CANADA.
[00:14:27] THE GOVERNMENT IS SELLING IT AS
[00:14:29] A WAY WE'LL MAKE MONEY AND PUMP
[00:14:31] IT BACK IN REGIONAL AIRPORTS
[00:14:34] THAT NEED MORE SUPPORT. WHAT IS THE CONSERVATIVE
[00:14:37] POSITION ON THIS IDEA? >> WELL, WITH LIBERALS, THE
[00:14:41] DEVIL IS ALWAYS IN THE DETAILS.
[00:14:44] WE WANT TO SAY WHAT THE PROPOSAL IS.
[00:14:46] I HAVE TO ASK, WHAT IS THE POINT
[00:14:49] IF IT'S NOT GOING TO SAVE
[00:14:51] CANADIANS MONEY.
[00:14:54] THERE'S COST LIVING CRISIS.
[00:14:56] RECENT SURVEY SHOWS 50% WORKING
[00:14:58] CANADIANS SAY THEY FEEL WORSE OFF FINANCIALLY TODAY THAN THEY
[00:15:02] DID A YEAR AGO. MANY PEOPLE HAVE TO TRAVEL FOR
[00:15:04] WORK TO SEE LOVED ONES.
[00:15:07] IF THIS PLAN DOESN'T HELP BRING
[00:15:09] DOWN COSTS OR VERY LEAST
[00:15:13] STABILIZE THEM, WE'LL BE ASKING THE GOVERNMENT TO WHAT END THEN?
[00:15:17] THERE'S A HABIT WITH LIBERALS A
[00:15:21] LIBERAL INSIDERS GET REALLY RICH.
[00:15:25] CONSULTANTS, LOBBYISTS, GOVERNMENT RELATIONS EXPERTS.
[00:15:28] WE'RE ON THE SIDE OF HARD WORKING CANADIAN WHO END UP
[00:15:32] PAYING THOSE COSTS WHAT THE
[00:15:34] TRANSFER MINISTER SAID ABOUT NO CORRELATION BETWEEN FEES AND AIR
[00:15:38] PRICES. BIG PART OF AIR TICKET COSTS ARE
[00:15:40] THE LANDING FEES THAT AIRLINE
[00:15:42] HAVE TO PAY TO TOUCH DOWN IN AIRPORTS.
[00:15:45] IF THOSE GO UP, THEY ABSOLUTELY
[00:15:49] WILL HAVE AN IMPACT. >> Rosemary: I WANT TO ASK YOU
[00:15:52] ABOUT THIS E.U. PARTNERSHIP. THERE'S A SUMMIT THAT'S HAPPENING NEXT MONTH.
[00:15:56] THE PRIME MINISTER HAS COMMITTED TO ALLOWING THIS TO BE DEBATED
[00:15:59] AND VOTED ON INSIDE PARLIAMENT.
[00:16:01] I NOTICED THAT PIERRE POILIEVRE
[00:16:03] IS REALLY DISMISSIVE OF THE IDEA
[00:16:06] EVEN ON SOCIAL MEDIA AGAIN THIS MORNING.
[00:16:08] DO YOU SEE NO ADVANTAGE TO
[00:16:11] TRYING TO BROADEN OUR
[00:16:13] RELATIONSHIP WITH THE E.U. IN
[00:16:15] THIS MOMENT? >> WHEN IT COMES TO TRADE.
[00:16:19] CANADA HAS A FREE TRADE DEAL WITH EUROPE.
[00:16:23] WE'RE PART OF NATO.
[00:16:29] WE'RE REALLY ASKING WHAT EXACTLY IS HE TALKING ABOUT?
[00:16:32] WHY DOES HE SPEAK TO GERMAN MEMBERS OF PARLIAMENT BEFORE HE
[00:16:36] SPEAKS TO CANADIAN MEMBERS PARLIAMENT ABOUT WHAT EXACTLY
[00:16:39] HIS PLAN IS? MR. MacKINNON SAID THAT MARK
[00:16:42] CARNEY LOVES PARLIAMENT.
[00:16:44] HE MUST BELIEVE IN ABSENCE.
[00:16:47] HE'S NOT THERE. HE SPENDS MORE TIME ABROAD THAN
[00:16:50] IN THE HOUSE OF COMMONS.
[00:16:53] HE HASN'T RECALLED PARLIAMENT.
[00:16:56] LIBERAL MINISTER SAID THAT THEY
[00:16:57] DIDN'T RECALL PARLIAMENT BECAUSE
[00:17:00] IT WAS GOING TO RECONVENE IN WEEKS.
[00:17:03] THOSE WEEKS MEAN A LOT FOR THOSE
[00:17:06] BUSINESSES AFFECTED BY TARIFFS.
[00:17:11] I FIND THAT VERY DISMISSIVE WAY
[00:17:14] OF CHARACTERIZING THE ROLE PARLIAMENT DURING THIS CRISIS.
[00:17:16] MARK CARNEY ON THE ONE HAND SAYS
[00:17:19] THAT BASICALLY CANADA IS AT WAR.
[00:17:23] DOESN'T UPDATE CANADIANS ON WHAT THE PLAN IS. DOESN'T COME CLEAN WITH WHAT
[00:17:27] HAPPENED WITH TRANSPARENCY AROUND WHY THE DEAL COLLAPSED.
[00:17:30] IT'S VERY DISAPPOINTING THAT
[00:17:32] MARK CARNEY HAS THIS DISDAIN FOR
[00:17:34] ACCOUNTABILITY AND TRANSPARENCY.
[00:17:38] >> Rosemary: LET'S SEE. HE WILL THERE TOMORROW. HE'S GOING TO THE UNITED NATIONS.
[00:17:42] WE'LL SEE WHAT HIS PRESENCE IMPROVES.
[00:17:46] BACK TO MY QUESTION ABOUT THE E.U. THE CONSERVATIVE PARTY, DO YOU
[00:17:50] SEE AN ADVANTAGE TO TRY TO
[00:17:52] DEEPEN THAT RELATIONSHIP?
[00:17:56] >> ANY TIME WE CAN REMOVE THE
[00:18:00] TRADE BARRIERS, THE
[00:18:01] CONSERVATIVES WILL SUPPORT THAT.
[00:18:05] IT'S IN THE CONSERVATIVE DNA. WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE E.U., WHEN
[00:18:09] YOU LOOK AT THINGS LIKE THE MASSIVE REGULATORY RED TAPE
[00:18:12] BEING POSED ON THE MEMBER. WHEN Y LOOK AT THE COSTS THAT
[00:18:16] ARE IMPOSED ON E.U. CITIZENS ON
[00:18:19] THINGS LIKE ENERGY BECAUSE OF
[00:18:22] THE ENERGY POLICIES.
[00:18:25] CANADIANS CAN'T AFFORD TO PAY MORE. WE DON'T WANT TO IMPORT ANY OF
[00:18:28] THE THINGS FROM EUROPE THAT ADD TO COSTS HERE ON CANADIANS AND
[00:18:32] THAT ERODE CANADIAN SOVEREIGNTY. WE BELIEVE THAT CANADIANS SHOULD
[00:18:36] MAKE DECISIONS ABOUT REGULATORY
[00:18:37] ISSUES AND CANADIANS SHOULD
[00:18:41] DECISIONS ON TAXATION. AGAIN, THIS IS ANOTHER EXAMPLE
[00:18:44] OF MARK CARNEY MAKING A GRAND ANNOUNCEMENT NOT REALLY A LOT OF DETAILS.
[00:18:47] OUR FOCUS FOR THIS FALL IS FIONA TO BE MAKING SURE WE CAN SAVE
[00:18:51] CANADIANS MONEY. ELIMINATE WASTEFUL SPENDING, BRING DOWN TAXES AND RED TAPE
[00:18:55] AND IMPORTING NEW REGULATIONS AND RED TAPE FROM THE E.U. WON'T
[00:18:59] DO THAT. >> Rosemary: I'M NOT GOING TO ASK IF YOU'RE UNITED BEHIND YOUR
[00:19:03] LEADER. I KNOW THE ANSWER. COMING OUT OF CAUCUS, I WOULD
[00:19:06] NOTE THAT PIERRE POILIEVRE IS ONE OF YOUR COLLEAGUE SAID THERE
[00:19:09] WOULD NOT TO BE A CONVERSATION TO MAKE SURE EVERYONE IS ON THE SAME PAGE.
[00:19:13] NOT JUST BEHIND THE LEADER BUT IN TERMS OF POSITIONS.
[00:19:15] HE POINTED TO JAMILLE JAVONNY
[00:19:23] WHO TAKES INDEPENDENT POSITIONS.
[00:19:27] WERE SOME THOSE THINGS DEALT WITH THIS TIME IN CAUCUS?
[00:19:31] WILL WE SEE MORE OF THAT?
[00:19:34] DO THEY GET THEY NEED TO BE ON THE SAME TEAM IN THIS MOMENT?
[00:19:38] >> AS YOU KNOW, DETAILS ABOUT
[00:19:41] WHAT HAPPENS IN OUR CAUCUS MEETING. WE HAVE A CAUCUS
[00:19:45] CONFIDENTIALITY. THE CONSERVATIVES ARE UNITED
[00:19:46] AROUND THIS MESSAGE OF MAKING
[00:19:49] SURE CANADA STRONGER AND HELPING CANADIANS SAVE MONEY.
[00:19:52] THAT IS OUR FOCUS IS.
[00:19:55] WE SAW A RECORD NUMBER OF CANADIANS VOTE FOR PIERRE
[00:19:58] POILIEVRE IN THE LAST ELECTION.
[00:20:00] WE SAW CONSERVATIVE PARTY GAIN
[00:20:03] SMASHING RECORD, 41% OF THE
[00:20:08] VOTE.
[00:20:10] IT'S A ROLE TO HOLD UP CRITIQUES OF THE GOVERNMENT.
[00:20:13] MILLIONS OF CANADIANS VOTED FOR US TO BRING DOWN THEIR COST OF
[00:20:17] LIVING, TO SAVE THEM MONEY TO ELIMINATE LIBERAL CAUSED INFLATION.
[00:20:21] THAT'S GOING TO BE THE FOCUS. I THINK EVERYBODY IN OUR CAUCUS
[00:20:24] UNDERSTAND THAT IS A MESSAGE
[00:20:27] THAT WILL RESONATE WITH CANADIANS.
[00:20:31] POSITIVE MESSAGE OF HOPE.
[00:20:36] >> Rosemary: THANK YOU FOR
[00:20:42] AS CANADA AND THE E.U. PUSH TO
[00:20:45] STRENGTHEN AIR PARTNERSHIP UAW
[00:20:49] COULD THAT MEAN FOR EUROPEAN INVESTMENT. I WILL SPEAK WITH THE EUROPEAN
[00:20:52] INVESTMENT BANK ABOUT THE MEETING SHE'S HAVING IN OTTAWA NOW.
[00:20:54] IT'S SUNDAY, WE'RE LIVE
[00:23:32] >> WE HAVE STOOD TOGETHER ON
[00:23:34] SUPPLY CHAIN, ABOVE ALL,
[00:23:40] DENMARK, EUROPE AND CANADA BELIEVES IN DEMOCRACY. >> Rosemary: THE PRESIDENT OF
[00:23:44] THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION, URSULA VON DER LEYEN, OUTLINING AREAS
[00:23:47] OF POTENTIAL COOPERATION BETWEEN
[00:23:51] U.S. AND CANADA.
[00:23:54] INCLUDING CRITICAL RAW MINERAL.
[00:23:57] IT'S GENERATING INVESTMENT
[00:23:58] INTEREST IN THE E.U.'S LENDING
[00:24:04] ARM.
[00:24:06] EXCELLENT TIMING THAT YOU'RE HERE.
[00:24:10] WHEN WE'VE TALKED ABOUT CANADA AND EUROPE.
[00:24:12] I WILL START BY ASKING YOU, WHAT
[00:24:15] YOU SEEKING HERE IN CANADA WITH THE EUROPEAN INVESTMENT WANK?
[00:24:19] >> THE EUROPEAN INVESTMENT BANK IS THE INVESTMENT ARM OF THE
[00:24:22] EUROPEAN UNION. VERY LARGE PUBLIC INVESTMENT BANK.
[00:24:26] WE'RE THE LARGEST IN THE WORLD.
[00:24:30] WE HAVE BEEN VERY ACTIVE IN CANADA UNTIL NOW. THE TIME IS NOW.
[00:24:34] I THINK MY VISIT HERE SHOWS THAT IN EUROPE, WE PUT OUR MONEY
[00:24:38] WHERE OUR MOUTH IS. >> Rosemary: INTERESTING.
[00:24:40] YOU DID IN MARCH ANNOUNCE
[00:24:43] SOMETHING TO EXPLORE FINANCING
[00:24:45] FOR CRITICAL RAW MINERAL
[00:24:48] PROJECTS. HOW ARE THINGS GOING TO MOVE FORWARD?
[00:24:51] IS THAT THE FIRST INVESTMENT PRIORITY FOR THE BANK?
[00:24:54] >> IN THE CASE OF CANADA, YES.
[00:24:56] I JUST HAD A VERY PRODUCTIVE
[00:24:59] MEETING WITH MINISTER HUTCHINS.
[00:25:02] WE HAVE AGREED TO BRING OUR ENGINEERS AND BANKERS TOGETHER
[00:25:05] TO SEE WHETHER THE PROJECTS BECOME AN INTEREST WHERE WE CAN
[00:25:09] JOIN FORCES. >> Rosemary: IS THIS LIKE WHAT
[00:25:13] THE PRIME MINISTER WAS DOING WITH HIS INVESTMENT SUMMIT.
[00:25:16] IT'S AREAS WHERE YOU INVEST FOREIGN CAPITAL IN MINING
[00:25:20] INFRASTRUCTURE PROJECT?
[00:25:23] >> CRITICAL MINERAL IS THE FIRST AREA. WE'RE WORKING WITH CANADA.
[00:25:27] I HAVE A MEETING WITH MINISTER CHAMPAGNE TWO DAYS AGO.
[00:25:31] I WILL BE MEETING WITH PRIME MINISTER CARNEY TOMORROW IN NEW YORK.
[00:25:35] WE'RE EXPLORING HOW TO HAVE A
[00:25:37] FRAMEWORK AGREEMENT WHICH ENABLE
[00:25:39] THE EUROPEAN INVESTMENT BANK TO
[00:25:41] FINANCE PROJECTS IN CRITICAL
[00:25:46] MINERALS. >> Rosemary: WHAT KINDS OF INVESTMENTS?
[00:25:49] >> WELL, DO YOU MEAN VOLUME? >> Rosemary: YES.
[00:25:52] >> WE DO AROUND $100 BILLION INVESTMENT A YEAR.
[00:25:55] WE HAVE A BROADER ARRAY OF INSTRUMENTS FROM LONG-TERM LOANS
[00:25:58] TO VENTURE CAPITAL, VENTURE DEBT. WE HAVE TO SEE HOW TO MAKE THE
[00:26:02] MOST OF OUR HIGHER POWER, WHICH
[00:26:04] IS QUITE POWERFUL.
[00:26:08] THE KEY IDEA IS ONE THAT PRIME
[00:26:11] MINISTER CARNEY IS STRATEGIC ALLIANCE, STRATEGIC CORPORATION.
[00:26:14] WE SPEAK THE SAME LANGUAGE. WE SHARE THE SAME VALUE.
[00:26:18] LET'S GET TOGETHER AND ALSO BUILD A BETTER WORLD GOING
[00:26:22] FORWARD FOR FUTURE VENGES. >> Rosemary: LET'S TALK WHAT
[00:26:25] YOU SAID THERE. FUTURE ALLIANCE THE PRIME
[00:26:29] MINISTER SAID, URSULA VON DER LEYEN CALLS IT ASSOCIATE MEMBERSHIP.
[00:26:31] HOW DOES THE BANK FIT INTO THAT?
[00:26:33] IS THAT A KEY PIECE DO YOU THINK
[00:26:35] WHAT THAT PARTNERSHIP IS LIKE?
[00:26:38] WE DO HAVE FREE TRADE AGREEMENT. IT'S HARD TO UNDERSTAND WHAT
[00:26:41] ELSE WE NEED TO DO HERE.
[00:26:44] >> I WOULDN'T WASTE ANY TIME TO BE FRANK ABOUT THE PROCESS AND
[00:26:48] PROCEDURES AND NAMES, HEADLINES.
[00:26:52] THE EUROPEAN INVESTMENT BANK IS A VERY PRACTICAL ORGANISATION.
[00:26:56] WE DO INVESTMENTS. WE PUT MONEY.
[00:26:59] WE SUPPORT PROJECTS. WE MAKE THINGS HAPPEN.
[00:27:01] I THINK THAT'S THE APPROACH OF CANADA.
[00:27:04] WHICH VERY MUCH R RESONATES WITH
[00:27:08] THE WAY WE LOOK AT THINGS.
[00:27:10] THIS WAS THE FIRST MEETING I HAD
[00:27:13] WITH MINISTER HUTCHINS AND CANADIAN LEADERS TO GET THINGS GOING.
[00:27:16] WE'LL TAKE IT FROM HERE.
[00:27:18] I WOULD SAY THE SKY IS THE
[00:27:22] LIMIT. WE'RE VERY AMBITIOUS TO OUR
[00:27:25] APPROACH TO CANADA AND VON
[00:27:28] EUROPEAN VOICE. >> Rosemary: ONE OF THE THINGS
[00:27:30] WE HAVE HEARD IN THE PAST FROM
[00:27:34] INVESTORS IS THAT CANADA HAS TOO MUCH RED TAPE.
[00:27:37] TOO MANY REGULATIONS.
[00:27:39] IT TAKES TOO LONG TO GET
[00:27:43] PROJECTS. HE'S PROPOSING ONE PROJECT ONE REVIEW.
[00:27:46] HAS THAT BEEN PREVIOUSLY A HIS
[00:27:50] -- HESITATION FOR EUROPE AND OTHER PLACES THAT IT DOESN'T
[00:27:53] HAPPEN FAST ENOUGH?
[00:27:55] >> IT'S A SHARED CRITICISM OF THE EUROPEAN UNION.
[00:27:59] WE HAVE BUILT VERY STRUCTURED PROCEDURES.
[00:28:02] WE ARE PROTECTING OUR CITIZENS. I THINK REGULATION IS GOOD.
[00:28:06] THAT'S WHAT ENSURES THAT WE HAVE CLEAN WATER, WE HAVE GOOD
[00:28:09] QUALITY FOOD THAT WE CAN ENSURE THAT ENERGY IS SAFE.
[00:28:12] WE CAN PROTECT YOU AND OUR CITIZENS.
[00:28:16] THAT'S PART OF THE HIGH QUALITY OF LIFE IN CANADA AND THE
[00:28:19] EUROPEAN UNION.
[00:28:20] WE NEED TO PRESERVE THAT.
[00:28:25] THIS IS A SHARED ENDEAVOR.
[00:28:27] WE CAN LEARN FROM EACH OTHER AND
[00:28:29] SEE HOW WE CAN WORK TOGETHER.
[00:28:33] >> Rosemary: HOW INTERESTED WILL BE INVESTED IN FUTURE
[00:28:36] PIPELINES WHETHER IT'S OIL OR
[00:28:41] L.N.G.?
[00:28:44] >> WE'RE MUCH MORE INTERESTED IN
[00:28:45] NEW TECHNOLOGIES IN GREEN
[00:28:49] ENERGY, GENERATION SOURCES WHERE
[00:28:52] THE MAIN IS EUROPE'S
[00:28:54] INFRASTRUCTURES, INTERCONNECTOR
[00:28:57] PIPELINE INSTRUCTION SYSTEM FOR ELECTRICITY.
[00:29:00] NET ZERO TECHNOLOGY JUST THIS WEEK. WE HAVE ANNOUNCED THE FIRST
[00:29:04] FINANCING OF THE SMALL MODULAR
[00:29:07] NUCLEAR REACTOR PROJECT IN FINLAND. WE'RE MUCH MORE INTERESTED IN
[00:29:10] CLEAN TECH AND DEVELOPING THE ECONOMY OF THE FUTURE.
[00:29:14] I THINK WE DISCUSSED THIS WITH
[00:29:17] MINISTER HUTCHINS THIS MORNING,
[00:29:18] I THINK THERE'S ALSO A GREAT
[00:29:22] OPPORTUNITY FOR US TO WORK TOGETHER. >> Rosemary: DO YOU THINK THIS
[00:29:24] WOULD BE HAPPENING IF IT WERE NOT FOR PRESIDENT TRUMP AND THE
[00:29:27] FACT THAT THE TRADE WAR HAVE
[00:29:31] INTENSIFIED OVER RECENT MONTHS?
[00:29:35] >> IT'S TOUGH TO SAY. I THINK CANADA AND THE E.U. HAVE
[00:29:38] BEEN WORKING CLOSELY TOGETHER. WE SPEAK THE SAME LANGUAGE.
[00:29:42] WE HAVE A SHARED HISTORY. WE HAVE SHARED VALUES.
[00:29:44] WHAT PROBABLY IS HAPPENING IS THAT THE REST OF THE WORLD, WHEN
[00:29:48] SOME ARE PULLING BACK, THE REST
[00:29:50] OF THE WORLD IS MOVING FORWARD.
[00:29:53] THERE'S A STRONG DETERMINATIONS.
[00:29:57] EVERYBODY IS LOOKING AT EUROPE
[00:29:58] AND WANTS TO JOIN FORCES WITH EUROPE.
[00:30:02] WE WILL CANNOT TO BUILD MUTUAL
[00:30:05] RESPECT, WIN-WIN PARTNERSHIPS WHERE EVERYBODY WINS.
[00:30:09] PEACE AND RESPECT. I THINK THESE ARE IMPORTANT VALUES.
[00:30:12] I WOULD SAY THIS IS WHAT GUIDE
[00:30:14] US AND GUIDES MANY PEOPLE AROUND THE WORLD. >> Rosemary: DO YOU THINK
[00:30:18] THERE'S A MOMENT HERE FOR CANADA? CERTAINLY THE PRIME MINISTER HAS
[00:30:21] BEEN TALKING ABOUT MOMENTUM. HE'S HAD A VERY BUSY WEEK.
[00:30:24] IS THERE A MOMENT WHERE THE WORLD IS LOOKING OR EUROPE IS
[00:30:28] LOOKING AT CANADA IN A DIFFERENT WAY THAN IT DID BEFORE?
[00:30:30] >> I THINK THE PRIME MINISTER
[00:30:32] CARNEY HAS A CLEAR VISION THAT MIDDLE POWER HAVE TO JOIN
[00:30:36] FORCES. WE CAN DISCUSS WHETHER THE EUROPEAN UNION IS A MIDDLE POWER.
[00:30:39] WE ARE VERY STRONG.
[00:30:41] WE ARE VERY STRONG, THE EUROPEAN
[00:30:44] UNION IS STRONG. CANADA IS VON. BUT WE'RE STRONGER TODAY.
[00:30:47] THAT'S THE VISION THAT WE NEED
[00:30:49] TO BUILD WORKING TOGETHER AND IN THE CASE OF EUROPEAN UNION,
[00:30:53] INVESTMENT BANK. WE DO NOT DO REGULATION.
[00:30:55] WE DO NOT DO HIGH POLITICS.
[00:30:58] WE PUT IN IN THE
