Miller’s blunt message to Poilievre: Step up and obtain security clearance

During a heated exchange in the House of Commons, Immigration Minister Marc Miller told Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre to “grow a pair” and get his security clearance. The comment came after Poilievre pressed Miller for details on the government’s plan to address immigration concerns that could potentially lead to a tariff on Canadian imports by U.S. president-elect Donald Trump. Miller accused Poilievre of pandering and making false promises regarding visas and deportation.

The exchange between Miller and Poilievre highlights the tension surrounding immigration issues in Canada, particularly in light of threats from the incoming U.S. administration. Miller’s remarks have drawn criticism for their confrontational tone, with many calling for an apology from the minister for his choice of language.

Despite withdrawing the comment, Miller has yet to issue an apology for his statement to Poilievre. The incident serves as a reminder of the contentious nature of discussions around immigration policy and the need for respectful dialogue in the political arena.
