NDP MP Rathika Sitsabaiesan’s population math may need fine-tuning

How is it that someone who has lived in Canada for most of their life and has a graduate degree from a top university not know how many people live in Canada?

oops. To immigrate into Canada you must pass a test. To serve as an MP you should also have to pass a test.

Mouth in gear but brain sleeping.

Maybe they should have a mandatory exam for prospective politicians.

Everyone makes mistakes but this one takes the cake, its like the pope forgetting which church he belongs to!

Tamil spoken in the House of Commons? Taking this multiculturalism a bit far. she says she is "The first female tamil member of parliament in the world outside India and SirLanka"
Isnt she Canadian? A Canadian Member of Parliament advocating for Canadians? Or a Tamil advocating for Tamils on the island of SriLanka? Lest we forget June 2008 Govt of Cda formally listed the World Tamil Movement as a 'terrorist organization" Wonder where her loyalty lies, the more i hear her speak.

And people who are that ignorant of Canadian facts are representing us?! Beam me up, Scotty, we're in trouble ...

May I remind you Sitsabaiesan that you are a representative for Canadians please leave
your Sri Lanka Tamil problems at the border do not import them into our society.

She should not be in Politics.

and she wants to draw us into a human rights conflict, maybe she should learn about Canada first... absolutely disgusting display of playing Canadians for fools.

I don't care what race, color,religon or sex......anyone who knows that little about a country should not be representing it's people......says a lot about the people who voted for her

dreamer -- bet she doesn't know the population of Sri Lanka either. Actually probably the only thing she does know is that as a "politician" she earns about 135,000 a year to fight for Sri Lanka, or whatever. This money is paid to her by Canadian taxpayers . This makes me think that someone is getting lucky on the taxpayer's wallet.

Maybe she was in Vegas partying it up with that NDP chick from Quebec

What have our great country come to?

last time i hear it we were 33 million strong ! what happened lol !

and we're paying for this stupidity? along with the gold plated $23 taxpayer contribution - $1 MP contribution pension plan
Who is more stupid, her or us??

Ha ha to those of you who voted for this idiot.

I am an immigrant from India and I agree Canada is bringing in too many people unnecessarily. Canada should only bring in qualified people who can work in certain job sectors which is lacking in talented personnels. If I am not needed here I will definitely go back. I neither want to take anyone's job nor do I want to work in areas where I am not trained to work for. This comment is not related to the news here ... but in response to all the agitated local Canadians who are getting more and more frustrated by the day.

She seems to know a lot more about Sri Lanka than she does Canada. Who exactly is she representing??????!!!

There are thousands of Canadians who are more capable of representing us . She is not one of them .
