Mr. Speaker, during question period today a member on the other side of the House used what I consider to be unparliamentary language for this House.
The member for Lakeland, when the President of the Treasury Board was answering a question, said “You are lying through your teeth”. Then when the Minister of Fisheries and Oceans was responding to a question, he yelled twice “You are a number one scum ball”.
I am not aware of the type of language that the member for Lakeland uses outside of the House, but one thing is clear, that is unparliamentary language and I would ask that the member for Lakeland apologize and withdraw those comments.
