When Independent Sen. Bernadette Clement  moved to put off further debate on the legislation on Nov. 9, Plett rose to speak to her, Saint-Germain and Sen Chantal Petitclerc, the Independent group’s “chair of deliberations.” They engaged in a heated exchange.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Independent Senators Group (ISG) LeaderSaint-Germain said Plett “violently” threw his earpiece and “stood before Sen. Clement and me as we sat at our desks, yelling and berating us for proposing this routine motion that would see debate resume the following week.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She said Plett “pointed fingers” at another ISG member, Sen. Lucie Moncion, and suggested he would block work she’s doing on the Senate’s human resource subcommittee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She said another Conservative, Sen. Michael MacDonald, called Independent Senators Group members “fascists” during the ruckus.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
