During Question Period in the House of Commons on Wednesday, Government House Leader Steven MacKinnon responded sharply to Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre’s questions.

MacKinnon countered Poilievre’s questions about the Northern Gateway pipeline by taking a dig at his time as a minister in Stephen Harper’s cabinet and said, "When this member was a minister, the only pipeline that got built was full of hot air."

In a separate exchange, after Conservatives questioned Prime Minister Mark Carney’s international travel and failure to reduce tariffs, MacKinnon jabbed at Poilievre again.

"Why is it when the leader of the opposition flies out of this city to far-flung places across our vast and grand land his polling results go down every single time?" he said.
