Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Legislative Blitz at Session’s End

• Volume and Speed:
  • The Carney government, bolstered by a recently secured majority (via floor crossings), expedited over 21 major bills before the summer break.
  • Notable quote: “...there was a lot happening all at once...” (Rosemary Barton, 01:50)
• Major Bills Passed:
  • Spring economic update (C30), including a pause on the federal fuel excise tax until Labour Day and for aviation fuel (02:22).
  • Legislation making it illegal to intimidate people outside religious/cultural institutions.
  • Coercive control bill targeting intimate partner violence.
  • Bail reform demanded by premiers and police officers.

2. Controversies and Criticism

• Bill C9 - Hate Speech:
  • Controversial for how it defines hate and the alleged risk to free expression outside religious/cultural sites.
  • “...the government was moving to define what hate is and somehow impeding people's ability to protest...” (Rosemary Barton, 03:21)
• Bill C22 - Lawful Access:
  • Expands police access to digital information, cutting required metadata retention from a year to six months.
  • Privacy concerns dismissed by Liberals as “tinfoil hat paranoid conspiracy theories.” (04:15, news clip)
  • “C22 was fraught and it has not yet become law... it was this push and pull between what can we provide to law enforcement... versus protecting people’s privacy rights.” (Rosemary Barton, 04:55)
• Pesticide Powers (within C30):
  • Quietly inserted provisions empowering cabinet to suspend pesticide bans for food or national security, sparking environmental and health group outcry.
  • “Generally when a government buries something in an omnibus bill like the spring economic update, you get a little skeptical about why they're doing that.” (Rosemary Barton, 04:55)

3. Unprecedented Parliamentary Tactics?

• Use of “time allocation, programming motions... very nerdy things... all have the same goal to stop debate...” (Rosemary Barton, 07:56)
• Critics on “At Issue” described this period as "unprecedented" due to the speed, volume, and use of procedural tools—although Barton tempers that by recalling similar moves under past majorities.
• “It is the number of tools the government used... and the timeframe... that has happened.” (Rosemary Barton, 08:24)

4. Looking Ahead: Big Tech and Privacy Bills

• Future-Focused Legislation:
  • Proposed creation of a digital regulator.
  • New privacy laws: third attempt, would let Canadians request personal information deletion (e.g., A.I. deepfakes).
    • “If passed, would allow for Canadians to ask for their personal information to be deleted... It changes the standards around, particularly children's data...” (Rosemary Barton, 09:36)
  • Enforcement shifted from Privacy Commissioner to the new regulator.
  • High fines proposed ($10 million or 3% of global revenue), but enforcement—especially with companies outside Canada—remains a major challenge.
  • “How do you enforce it when the companies don't actually exist in Canada, they're based somewhere else.” (Rosemary Barton, 10:36)
• Online Harms & Safe Social Media Acts:
  • Still in early stages; criticized for delays and lack of clear regulation on AI chatbots.
  • “Someone who is 14 and is worried about a social media ban probably doesn't have to worry because by the time this all gets done, they'll be 16.” (Rosemary Barton, 11:14)

5. Carney’s Priorities and Risks

• Twin Priorities Identified:
  • Immediate economic stability (affordability, fuel taxes).
  • Laying the groundwork for “Canada of the future,” especially through AI and tech regulation.
    • “I think the first one is the economy... the other one is about sort of... Canada of the future...” (Rosemary Barton, 13:12)
• AI Ambitions:
  • National AI literacy strategies, economic optimism about AI.
  • “...the Prime Minister in particular really thinks that artificial intelligence is going to solve a lot of problems for the government and for Canadians.” (Rosemary Barton, 13:58)
  • Potential for political risk if over-reliance on AI creates voter backlash or job loss (especially as NDP critique AI-related labor concerns).
  • “That opens up a real interesting space for the NDP, who have been talking... about the dangers of artificial intelligence and the labor force...” (Rosemary Barton, 15:16)
  • Notably, climate change and AI not connected in new policies.

---

Notable Quotes & Memorable Moments

• On the parliamentary blitz:
  “We saw the government use a series of different tools, procedural tools that allow them to limit or shut down debate... to stop debate from moving forward and to get the legislation through.” (Rosemary Barton, 07:56)

• On privacy reforms:
  "If passed, [the bill] would allow for Canadians to ask for their personal information to be deleted... all of that enforcement inside that new digital regulation commission..." (Rosemary Barton, 09:36)

• On government’s tech future vision:
  "The Prime Minister in particular really thinks that artificial intelligence is going to solve a lot of problems for the government and for Canadians." (Rosemary Barton, 13:58)

[Podcast Announcer]

this is a CBC podcast foreign.

[Jamie Poisson]

Hey, everybody, it's Jamie. It was a busy end to the season in the House of Commons with a lot of activity to wrap up and a lot still to look ahead to. So today, CBC's chief political correspondent, Rosemary Barton is here. We're going to talk about what happened, what it tells us about Carney's majority government and what we can expect in the months to come. Rosie, hey, it's great to have you.

[Rosemary Barton]

Hi, Jimmy.

[Jamie Poisson]

So I want to start with just a big picture snapshot of what the last couple of weeks before Parliament wrapped up for summer actually looked like because there was a lot of action at the end there. And. And frankly, it was like a little bit hard to keep up with. So maybe just take us through the broad strokes.

[Rosemary Barton]

Yeah, hard for me too, I should say, because there was a lot happening all at once and the government was also tabling legislation that's going to be followed up on in the fall. And I know we can talk more about that, but you could definitely see that as the Kearney government got their majority through all the things that we've talked about in the past, the floor crossing that allowed them to push things through so they could get some stuff done before breaking for the summer. So, for instance, the spring economic update got through, which was pretty important because it included things like the pause on the gas excise tax.

[News or Ad Voice]

Canada's new government will temporarily suspend the federal fuel excise tax until Labor Day. We're also removing the fuel excise tax on aviation fuels.

[Rosemary Barton]

There was another piece of legislation that got through that makes it Illegal to intimidate people outside religious or cultural institutions. There was another one that got through that prohibits engaging in patterns of coercive, controlling behavior, behavior against an intimate partner, a bail bill that had been demanded for months, if not years by premiers and police officers that also got through. So some pretty substantial pieces of legislation got passed. More than I think about 21 were all government bills. And it got done in large part because they had this majority and could push them through more quickly.

[Jamie Poisson]

And I know some of this legislation was fairly uncontroversial, but not all of it. And so what were the most controversial parts?

[Rosemary Barton]

Controversial would be around that C9. That was the one around hate speech. There were some concerns around the idea that the government was moving to define what hate is and somehow impeding people's ability to protest or express themselves outside of particular religious and cultural institutions, as I said. So that was a hard one for the government to navigate. But they got it to a place that they thought it was acceptable. And as I said, now even if there's controversial legislation, the government can push to have it done regardless of what anyone else is saying.

[Jamie Poisson]

Yeah, yeah. And we've also, we've talked on the show quite a bit about Bill C22, the lawful access legislation. It gives law enforcement the ability to get access to digital information more quickly and easily. The liberals recently dismissed critics privacy concerns around that as like tinfoil hat paranoid conspiracy theories.

[Podcast Announcer]

This is a very real set of reforms in terms of criminal justice. What it has met from the conservatives is this wall of conspiracy theory, frankly paranoia that I know many.

[Jamie Poisson]

I was also surprised to see that tucked within Bill C30, a finance bill that implements the spring economic update, were major changes to Canada's Pest Control Products act that gives Carney's cabinet authority to greenlight pesticides that ministers feel is in the interest of economic or national food security. So like a number of environmental and health organizations are denouncing this change as well.

[Rosemary Barton]

Yeah, so I'll take, I'll take the pesticide one first if I can. So that was, that was the idea that now cabinet or ministers can suspend bans on certain kinds of pesticides if there is a national security or food security issue. No one in the government has explained why that is needed or how they would use it. And, and you know, generally when a government buries something in an omnibus bill like the spring economic update, you get a little skeptical about why they're doing that. C22 was fraught and it has not yet become law. It is moving on to The Senate. But the government shut down debate on third reading on that. And it was fraught because again, it was this push and pull between what can we provide to law enforcement agencies to help them uncover things to do their job better versus protecting people's privacy rights. They got to a place with some government amendments that shorten the amount of time that these companies can hold on to the metadata that accumulates around your activities online. They got that down from one year to six months, which the government thought was in some ways a compromise. That thing will also be reviewed by an independent agency. The government makes the point that we are the last G7 country to not have authorities that have this ability to do this. And so that's. They felt they needed to act with some urgency. So it's. It is still controversial, but there were some changes made to respond to some of that.

[Jamie Poisson]

Is it possible that any of these bills, like, like the Lawful Access Bill, that, that haven't yet gotten through the Senate could still get scuttled?

[Rosemary Barton]

It's possible that the Senate makes a stink about C22 for sure. But generally when the government hands something off to the upper chamber, the upper chamber must move on the advice and desires of the government. But it would be another opportunity to make amendments or to make sure that the legislation is as good as it can be. All these other ones that I've mentioned, they are all done and dusted. I mean, C30 on Saturday received royal assent, so it is done.

[Jamie Poisson]

I was listening to at issue your kind of weekly politics, Joe, as I do, and I was kind of struck by the tone of the panelists. Althea Raj was saying, we have never seen anything like this, ever. Chantelle Baird called it unprecedented to find

[Rosemary Barton]

the government using its newly found majority not obtained at the polls to speed up or force feed nine bills to the House of Commons.

[Jamie Poisson]

And what is so unusual that's happening here? Is it the speed? Is it the volume? Like. Like what are they talking about when they say that?

[Rosemary Barton]

Yeah, I'm always hesitant to use words like unprecedented because I've been here for a long time and I remember other majority governments doing a lot of things to make sure their agenda was accomplished. But I, I will say this. We saw the government use a series of different tools, procedural tools that allow them to limit or shut down debate things like time allocation, programming motions, a bunch of like, very nerdy things that our friend Aaron Wary could explain to you much better than I can. But they're all, they all have the same goal to stop debate from moving forward. And to get the legislation through. Part of the reason the government says it does that. Yes. Is to advance its own interests, but also because they say the opposition parties were not having a real debate. We're filibustering. We're just shouting into this air about things and that it was time for the legislation to proceed. So I think it is the number of tools the government used to do this and the timeframe in which it did it, because that's a lot of legislation in a very short period of time. And I think part of the reason why that has happened is because, again, as I've been saying before, they had a minority, then they had a majority. Much easier to push things through, obviously, when you have that.

[Jamie Poisson]

Yeah, yeah. Okay. So I also want to talk about these bills that they've tabled that haven't passed yet, big signature bills focused on regulating technology that came out in the last few weeks. Really. We've talked a lot about the online harms bill on the show already. But there's also the proposed creation of a new digital regulator and an update to Canada's privacy laws. And can you just walk me through that a little bit? Yeah.

[Rosemary Barton]

So I'll do the privacy one because I think that probably didn't get enough attention because it came towards sort of the end of the city. It's the third attempt to get this kind of legislation passed, much like the Safe Social Media act, which I know you've talked a lot about. And again, this is another example of how far can the government go in regulating something versus protecting people's rights. So this piece of legislation, if passed, would allow for Canadians to ask for their personal information to be deleted. There'd be some exceptions to that, but take, for example, all the AI generated deepfakes of Rosemary Barton that are out there, and there are a lot of them. I would be able to go and try and have those pulled down. It changes the standards around, particularly children's data, to better protect them online. And it very interestingly, actually puts all of that enforcement inside that new digital regulation commission that that the government also wants to create. So it would no longer be the purview of the privacy Commissioner in Canada, who would be dealing with public, like, government things, but private issues, citizen issues, corporations, that would all now go inside this commission that the government has yet to create. And there'd be some big fines attached to this kind of thing. $10 million or 3% of global revenue. I think the central issue, though, there, much like the Safe Social Media act, is enforcement. Right. How do you enforce it when the companies don't actually exist in Canada, they're based somewhere else. So how do you go after it? The government says that it plans to do it, but enforcement as much on the privacy issues as the social media issues, I think is, is where the Ripper is going to hit the road a little bit. You know, someone who is 14 and is worried about a social media ban probably doesn't have to worry because by the time this all gets done, they'll be 16.

[Jamie Poisson]

Yes, sorry, that's a good point. That all of this is looking like will likely be implemented, what, like 18 months from now at least. Right, that's one of the criticisms. You know, certainly another one is that they haven't done enough here on AI chatbots, which are like a growing and very imminent concern. So complex

[Jamie Poisson]

As you look back over not just the last few weeks, but the last few months since Carney got the majority, what would you say all of these actions say to you about what his priorities here are?

[Rosemary Barton]

I think there's, I think there's two priorities. I think the first one is the economy and that's why that spring economic update and some of those affordability measures contained in it were important, obviously vital. And then I think the other one is about sort of, for lack of a better term, Canada of the future. And maybe we are coming to some of this stuff belatedly. But I think between the AI strategy, the safe social media, the privacy, the lawful access, it's about putting all of these pieces together to make sure that Canada is on a certain path to being on the, I don't want to say the cutting edge because as I said, we're behind it in some ways. But to be a little More sure of where we're going with some of these big things. And that's in part because the Prime Minister in particular really thinks that artificial intelligence is going to solve a lot of problems for the government and for Canadians. And I know you've talked to the Minister about that kind of thing and the trust piece, but that is part of what he sees as the economy of the future for Canada.

[News or Ad Voice]

We're launching a national AI literacy initiative offering training to all Canadians across the country in classrooms, workplaces, libraries, community centers with free and trustworthy AI learning kits, including courses and modules. Canadians will better understand AI, be able to use it safely and confidently, and put it to work in their own lives.

[Rosemary Barton]

So I think they all are sort of driving towards his economic vision of the country in very different ways.

[Jamie Poisson]

Do you think that his kind of all in attitude on AI or his confidence in AI being the future could also become a liability for him moving forward? Considering the polling is showing, basically half the country is very skeptical about this technology and actually thinks that it's going to have a net negative effect.

[Rosemary Barton]

Yeah, And I think we don't know the answer to that yet whether it will have a net negative effect. Right. But I think that is a totally normal way for Canadians to feel about it. And I think what the government has to be wary of moving forward is that it doesn't put all its eggs in that basket without thinking about some of the consequences. If you think about job loss, again, we don't really know how that will shake down. But think about job loss. That opens up a real interesting space for the ndp, who have been talking, as you know, so much about the dangers of artificial intelligence and the labor force. So there's a concern there. You think about the data centers and people's concerns around the environment and water use. That again, opens up the government to potential criticism from its progressive flank. So I don't know how they're going to juggle that moving forward, but it does seem to be a really strong aggressive push in that direction without us really understanding the other side of it. I would note they really didn't talk about climate change and that AI strategy at all. So how they're going to navigate that I'm not sure that. I'm not sure that we or they have a clear sense of that yet.

[Jamie Poisson]

Let's pitch forward now. Often the summer months are kind of sleepy for the federal government, much to my own chagrin, because we're always trying to find stuff to put up on the daily. On a daily show.

[Rosemary Barton]

Well, I Like it. I like it.

[Jamie Poisson]

I know.

[Rosemary Barton]

Take a break.

[Jamie Poisson]

I know. And you deserve it.

[Dominic LeBlanc]

Thank you.

[Jamie Poisson]

But I'm not sure. It is actually kind of looking that way this summer. Right. Because we do have this deadline approaching on Cuzma negotiations July 1, which is the formal deadline for when we are supposed to review or extend Cuzma. And we saw Trump and Carney chat a bit at the G7 last week. On the sidelines, though, I don't think there was anything official. Where are things at with these very important negotiations right now? Like, what are you hearing?

[Rosemary Barton]

Yeah, I mean, first of all, just a reminder that, as Dominic LeBlanc said,

[Dominic LeBlanc]

I try and demystify this July 1 deadline. It's not a cliff that everybody goes hurtling off. It's a moment where the three countries could decide to extend the agreement by adding six more years, so 16 years. And if on July 2, we haven't done that, the agreement remains in place for another 10 years. And there are these annual reviews back to what you said earlier about the

[Rosemary Barton]

talks are picking up. I think that's fair to say that they are moving in the right direction, that they are talking about specific issues. They are trying to find resolution to them. Look back at the complaint or the tariffs that the president put in place around forced labor. Well, the government went and then tabled its own piece of legislation to try and tighten up supply chains on forced labor. So there's things that the government is doing that it can say to the United States, states, we are moving on this. Give us a minute. We'll see how far we can get. I would say, though, that there's kind of one step forward, two steps back very often here, that the minute the Canadians think that they have got a handle on something and are resolved something for the US Something else pops up. And it's generally because there's something that the president has thought of that is on a list. So I would say that nobody that I talk to thinks that this deadline will be hit, that they are going to go past it. But nobody that I talk to thinks that the president is actually going to terminate the deal, in part because he would have to go to Congress, in part because he would get, you know, there would be a lot of trouble from the business sector if he did it. But the uncertainty of not knowing what's going to happen continues to be a big concern for the government because that's how private investment is done. Right. If you know that something's going to be in place and you can benefit from it, you'll go ahead and invest capital. And that uncertainty is contributing to some of the concerns that the government has.

[Jamie Poisson]

Is it fair for me to say that, you know, just at this moment, the most likely scenario here is that Trump is probably going to complain about a bunch of things and they might make like a couple of deals and that this is probably going to roll into a year to year review as opposed to them deciding we're going to renew this thing. Sixteen years and just a rear to your review is not necessarily great either.

[Rosemary Barton]

It's not great. And I think if that's the outcome, it still doesn't solve anything when it comes to the sectoral tariffs for us, which are really the biggest problem. Obviously you hear the prime minister say all the time it's 85% of Canadian goods are still under Kuzma, but the sectors, whether it be softwood, steel, aluminum and others that are feeling the brunt of those tariffs, need them to come down. Nobody thinks that they're going to go down to zero. That's not realistic under Trump. But if they could somehow get them decreased, that would be a win. And I would just say there from a political perspective, I was mentioning this on my show on Sunday. I do wonder how long the prime minister can go without getting something out of the US Administration. If you're elected on a promise to get a deal and to protect Canada from Trump, there's all the things that he's doing to find new trading partners, shore up the Canadian economy, build out. But if you can't get anything from that guy, at some point do Canadians say, oof, I thought you were going to do better than this? I don't know. I don't know the answer to that. But I think that's something to watch as that July 1 deadline comes and goes.

[News or Ad Voice]

Foreign.

[Jamie Poisson]

Let's stick with July 1st because it is Canada Day. But it is also the deadline for Alberta to submit their pipeline proposal. Fire season is already starting in BC Just this past weekend, we saw evacuation orders in Lytton. This is the village that was actually totally ravaged by fires just five years ago now. But what kind of action do you think we could be seeing on, on the pipeline front this summer and, and what kind of opposition might, might that face?

[Rosemary Barton]

Well, first of all, obviously it's Alberta that has to come up with the plan, that has to come up with the, the route, a proponent or the promise of a proponent and how this is going to work. But because of the, the referendum in the fall, it's all tied together. It's all you know, 10 times more complicated than it needed to be, frankly. If the government had just said, yes, let's do a pipeline, and we'll deal with the criticism from people inside caucus or environmentalists, that would be one thing. But it is going to push forward a pipeline, probably make it a project of national interest in the fall, in part because it has to prove something to Albertans around how this country works. And that is a heck of a, heck of a place to be politically, especially with a, With a Quebec election Right. In the midst of all this, in the fall. Quebec is the prime minister's power base, really, for, for his own government.

[Jamie Poisson]

And this could piss off Quebecers. Right. There's a separatist party.

[Rosemary Barton]

Yeah. And it's a separatist party. And it could. You know, climate change is usually far more valued in Quebec than in other parts of the country in polling. So to see a prime minister that you've elected appro. Another bitumen pipeline that could create problems for the Liberal Party there, I think you're going to see a lot of people at Stampede. I think you're going to see a lot of people ramping up the conversation around why Alberta matters. And that is necessarily tied to the idea that Alberta should be able to use its resources and get another pipeline. I, I don't know, though, how the prime minister manages all the expectations around that. I've talked to people in his caucus who say, oh, no, there won't be another pipeline. And I'm not sure that that's the signal the Prime Minister is sending. Definitely not. And the reality is that the issues in Alberta, and I'm not in Albertan, but I've talked to enough of them, the issues in Alberta far exceed just a pipeline. So if you approve a pipeline and don't deal with all the other issues, then what's the next thing you're going to have to deal with? And I think that's the fear that a lot of people have to.

[Jamie Poisson]

Okay, that feels like a good place for us to end. Rosie, thank you for this. Thank you.

[Rosemary Barton]

Thank you.

[Jamie Poisson]

Okay, that's all for today. I'm Jamie Poisson. Thanks so much for listening. Talk to you tomorrow.
