SaltWire's Atlantic regional weather forecast for October 6, 2023 | SaltWireOTTAWA — A Liberal MP apologized Thursday after comparing Conservative MPs’ attacks in question period to the work of the infamous Nazi propagandist Joseph Goebbels.
Conservative MP Melissa Lantsman, who is Jewish, said comparing her party’s questioning to Goebbels was outrageous. Goebbels, who was one of Nazi leader Adolf Hitler’s closest confidants, was the notorious Nazi propagandist in charge of vilifying and dehumanizing Jews, shaping German public opinion to enable their persecution and pave the way for their mass murder in the Holocaust. He set up similar propaganda networks in Nazi-occupied countries.Lantsman, when raising the point of order, said Hardie’s comments warranted an apology.
Hardie promptly deleted the post. When Lantsman raised the point of order, Hardie did offer an apology to the House saying he had gone “elbows up,” but added he was concerned about Conservative misinformation in the House of Commons.
