Off point Talking about something other than the matter at hand: the question asked, or the bill, motion or speech under debate. What the tags mean → “I do hope he will not just provide unanimous consent to the tabling of that document but that he also gives it to the Minister of Finance so that we can finally get the Liberals to stop causing the inflation that is causing so much hardship for Canadians.” Turns the tabling request into a partisan claim that the Liberals cause inflation rather than addressing the business of the House
Respect · no score
