harper's government. despite a letter signed by the opposition leader, it was a political letter, but the voice of the house was paramount. before christmas, we won three nonconfidence votes. and we are going to have to retest the confidence of the house in march. to get a budget through. in 2008, the governor general correctly concluded that because the very last times in the previous weeks that the confidence of the house had been tested, it had passed that confidence test. stephen harper had the confidence of the house because it would bear out, stephen harper won a confidence vote once again. so a political document of political speeches doesn't carry the kind of weight that. this will take us into march and will be confidence votes in march and the passing of supply that will allow parliament to weigh in on confidence intake a of a way that is in keeping of all the presumes of democracy and the workings of our strong institutions. >> [speaking french] with respect, don't you think this is undemocrati

government is not the solution to our problem. government is the problem. for. from time to time, we've been tempted to believe that society has become too complex to be managed by self-rule. that government by an elite group is superior to government for by and of the people. well, if no one among us is capable of governing himself, then who among us has the capacity to govern someone else? all of us together in and out of government, must bear the burden. the solutions we seek must be equitable. with no one group singled out to pay a higher price. we hear much of special interest groups. well, our concern must be for a special interest group that has been too long neglected. it knows no sectional boundaries or ethnic and racial divisions, and it crosses political party lines. it is made up of men and women who raise our food patrol, our streets, man our minds and factories, teach our children, keep our homes and healers when we're sick. professionals in dust, realists, shopkeepers, clerks, cabbies and truck drivers. they are, in short, we the people. this bree

i'll start first with the government, the central government, the government under the articles of confederation. as i said, it is a product of its time. right. so if you're trying to throw off what you regard as onerous, central. then you don't want to replace it with another onerous central authority. right. so you look at the confederation congress and the emphasis is on the congress the way in other words, it's on the legislative it's not on the executive. right. they have an advisory board that handles executive decisions, but the focus is on the legislature, the congress. right. you might say sort of people power. right. and it's very, very weak. it has to by this time in the 1780s, literally, members to attend. it can only beg attendance, can't compel. right. it can. provision an army on paper. it can pay for it. it can ask for money from states. but it can't compel them to turn money over. if you want to change the articles of confederation, it's very, very difficult. you have to get unanimous to even amend that. so it's not very impressive from the standpoint of nationhood to look at th

a privatization of governance? is it or are they a partner in adding more power to governments in sometimes in some bad ways, right. so i think politically speaking, we have to conclude that politicians from the democratic and the republican party in, other parts of the world, from the left and the right, from progressive and conservative sides have put too much faith in market forces hope that the technologies themselves as though there was some magic effect of them, would lead to democratization and would sort of render the best results without putting in place guardrails, without putting in place these checks and balances that we actually have in almost every other part of our society. and so we shouldn't be surprised in many ways, the space that was left open has been taken by companies. so that i think a sort of a political reality. then there's the more, you know, daily operations of governments where they are indeed also very dependent and relying on tech companies themselves, software suites, big, big compa

governance and rightly so, a.i. governance is becoming increasingly essential to global security and includes inclusive multilateral engagement at all levels including within the security council. as the secretary-general has noted artificial intelligence represents both the greatest opportunity and at the same time an existential threat. we need constant stability a.i. can on one hand be harnessed positively for example to support efforts for conflict resolution and peace building. on the other hand a.i. can enhance disinformation campaigns, violent extremist content and propaganda. used to fuel the proliferation of autonomous weapons. therefore, we strongly believe that the council's primary role in maintaining international peace and security necessitates addressing a.i.-related risks to ensure that a.i. is designed, developed, and deployed in use with full compliance of international law and humanitarian law and human rights law. mr. president, the risks aren't speculative or distant. they are a reality in conte

whether they have been created by the government or are just possession control of the government. that means we have access to them with some wonderful exceptions. what surprised me when i first learned about the federal access to information laws is that you do not even have to be a united states citizen to gain access to information . other countries and their citizens may request to see what records the united states has about that. my first experience came far too late in my life . it was 1991. somehow i managed to go through all of high school , college and law school and had not heard much or even used the freedom of information act until my mid-20s when thanks to alan morrison who's joining us today and president joan cleburne i became the director of the us freedom of information clearinghouse. public citizen litigation group was started by with ralph nader and alan morrison in 1972 and it ran . alan who is legendary as an advocate for government transparency had a small but mighty swat team of lawyers working on a wide array of consumer and civic oriented litigation. i ha

the government inherited a child care strategy from the previous government, the rollout of an expandedours offer which is almost exclusively aimed at targeting working families. there is evidence that in doing so, there is a risk that provision will be reduced for the poorer children who stand to benefit the most from high-quality early years provision. are you concerned that the government's early years education and child care strategy is at odds with the work of the child property task force? >> the child property task force is doing his work at the moment. it will issue its report in the spring of next year. and so, we want to bring these things together. i completely accept what you put to me. what happened -- happens in the ears fur to five of a child's life are more impactful than any other point. therefore we have to put the support in there. plan for change, making sure children arriving in reception are ready to learn. as you know children arriving in reception have very varying abilities, some are able to get on very quickly and be ready to learn -- >> without the resolution

and there's no coincidences in government. let me give you an example of the news that's been back in play thanks to great reporting about the details of how fast russiagate was, how the intelligence communities were using operatives overseas . when you go to england in a place like that and you save you the intelligence community go out there and surveilled illegally donald trump associates someone's got to authorize that. now we know it was john brennan and obama but who issued the order on the ground to allow that to happen? gina hassell, london station chief in 2016 would go on to be trumps cia director, she's the one that blocked the report that you guys are familiar with about john brennan's corrupt ica . that report still sits in a skiff as the cia under lock and key because she blocked donald trump's release of that report so you could see the corruption so the fight is not over . chris ray, rob rosenstein ran the cover-up, signed illegal warrants to surveilled donald trump while he was president of theunited states .

if the government _ national enquiry. if the government will - national enquiry.onal enquiry. if the i government will not order national enquiry. if the - government will not order that statutory national public enquiry, we will table an amendment to the children were being built later this week to put the matter to a vote. the issue was _ put the matter to a vote. the issue was thrown _ put the matter to a vote. the issue was thrown into - put the matter to a vote. the issue was thrown into the spotlight following a series of incendiary post by elon musk. he has produced no evidence for some of his place. a former greater manchester blizzard sector accused the government of a knee—jerk reaction. we of a knee-“erk reaction. we need a of a knee—jerk reaction. - need a thorough, honest, deep dive into the reasons why and an honest acknowledgement that we have failed generations of children. this is not a local problem, it is a national problem, it is a national problem and it will not go away and ifor one will carry problem and it will not go away and i for one wil

government funding. they were a company. they were spreading their money around to the bidens. should they make a law so you can't take money from cutouts in that way? i thank you for answering my questions. guest: those are absolutely excellent questions. i will try to answer in order. this in some ways has been a loophole. states are not allowed to use their funding to hire lobbyists. they cannot go out like a lot of other firms can and hire a lobbying firm. when you look at the work think tanks are doing, you are absolutely right. it's not just about the reports and the research and of it. it is really just the beginning of what they do. they are testifying before congress. they are outright helping to write legislation. if you believe funding is influencing what think tanks do, you know that think tanks are helping to write legislation you could see a path for the u.s. government giving money to think tanks that are moving on to directly influence legislation on their behalf. there should be some ser

instead, it made itself a vessel for government propaganda. it began suppressing the voices of the dissents, silencing and gaslighting the powerless. hamilton, madison and adams said they put the first amendment and put the right of free expression into the first amendment because all of the other rights depended on it. a government that has the capacity to silence its critics has license for any kind of atrocities. i grew up reading sci-fi authors. and the consistent theme in all of those works was the presumption that censorship of speech was always wrong. that it was always the first on the slippery slope towards tyranny and totalitarianism. there's no time when we look back at history and we say that the people who were censuring speech were the good guys. [applause] they're always the bad guys. the framers didn't write the first amendment to protect, convenient or desirable speech. they wrote it to protect the kind of speech that nobody wants to hear. [applause] they wrote it to protect incendiary speech. they wrote it to protect insults.

federal government as well. what it leads to a succeed myth that's perpetuated in this discussion of how we take on the administrative state so far we've established that the u.s. president has pursuant to five usc3302 sole authority to set the regulation, rules governing office of management with competitive service. well, the myth number two that's been taken for graduated in our national history is that the president of the united states is limited in his ability to fire those employees pursuant to part of the u.s. code known as 5us7513a which creates so-called fore cause limitations. would say that the u.s. president cannot fire a bureaucrat unless it is what you call forecause that's the status quo in washington, d.c. turns out that is actually a myth. [applause] turns out large scale reductions in force are not covered by the statute. they're corp.ed by a different statute five usc3502 that says reduction force subject to 60 day notice requirements and further what you call order of retention rule, the ord

government is hard. it is history, contemporary, future, ideas, arguments, personalities, we can't squeeze it into one semester at a time. every subject we they are, we start with concepts and advocacy and wrestle with things but don't give enough time to do this in the united states. we also know and look at our dollars and cents on this, for every $50, only $0.05 go to civics. i work at a school where i understand there are benefits of stem but it is out of whack with what we need. we don't need more innovations. we don't understand the system we are innovating for or we could do better we understand our levers of power. in the book i go through a few roots, one is hard, government is hard to understand. it's multilayered, multiple personalities, it changes over time, it is difficult. another reason is in a lot of parts of the country we have a tradition of not talking about politics, a bucket of taboo with religion or sex or drugs or money and we can't talk about something, it's hard to learn or teach

and operational sustainability of local governments. goodness would improve service delivery and support green industry since the 6 initiative was us the kind of chart and for security invest thinking no can production navigation system. what is the, is it is, and did us dependence on inputs as i'm finally the 7th initiative, this low cost of education for development, aligning indication with labor market demands. and then pressing digital platforms were prepared on what to use for future opportunities. these initiatives do minus 3, it's our commitment to for starting resilience. and then they bring our people to build their lives and livelihoods. but to make all these initiative possible and make their implementation feasible, we also adopting a major program for institutional reform, which has, as it said, about 50 milestones. 45, i'm not worried progressing. any improvement. but i'm gonna summarize these the form i just had on 4 plus times the 1st class soon as to do with the discount policy and public financial management wash and

government is the problem. and then laid out a call f less regulation, lower taxes that how he governed. that became so dominant that other republicans would cite government as the problem, as the operating philosophy of. the republican party. before donald but reagan also made clear a pragmatic commitment to make government work. a few paragraphs for paragraphs after his famous attack on government, he said now. so there will be no misunderstanding. it's not my intention to do away with government. it's rather to make government. make it work. work with us. not over us to stand by our side. not ride on our back. government can and must provide opportunity, not it foster productivity, not stifle it. at the times, the new york time, at the time of the inaugural, new york times wrote that reagan to be in dialog with franklin. remember that if one more moment in that dialog come and those views dominated american politics, that government had gotten too big, taxes needed to be cut, that we needed to have pragmatic
