Thank you, Chair.
First of all, I want to say that based on personal experience, the type of language you both have been subjected to by members of the public is unacceptable. I think that's something we all can agree on. I think the question now is, how do we move forward?
As a member of the opposition, it is my job to hold the government to account. For me, when I come into the House of Commons sometimes and ask the Prime Minister questions, I will state a fact that's in a report. Then he'll stand up in the House of Commons and say that I'm spreading misinformation. You've both had good suggestions. You've said that we need to allow room for legitimate criticism of the government. But how can we do that when we have a Prime Minister who stands up over and over again—many of the ministry as well—when there is a legitimate concern, and rather than defending the policy, it's just that there's misinformation, or that Conservatives are spreading misinformation? Do you think that also degrades the environment that happens in question period that Ms. Khalid described?
