What I indicated was that when the Speaker was here, he indicated that he was not sure who had said what and that they would be reviewing the tape and we would come back to the House. Therefore, I just want to ask members to please wait until that decision comes back. There were two other points raised that I want to address.
The first one was from the hon. member for Edmonton Griesbach, and I am glad that I am able to come back to that. Sometimes, I cannot hear everything perfectly at this end of the House, and I do not think that all Chairs can either, but what was said was, “We are expecting a quick and judicious response to what is extreme cowardice from...that side of the House.” After reviewing this and after discussion, we recognize that this is not directed directly to any particular party. The member said “that side of the House”. Therefore, I want to indicate that the hon. member will be able to speak. I am not going to ask him to withdraw the comment, but I do want to ask members to please be careful with respect to how they say things because it does create quite a difficult situation. Again, we are all hon. members and we should all be conducting ourselves according to what is expected of us.
There was another point of order, which was raised by the hon. member for Cariboo—Prince George, about what the hon. member for Edmonton Strathcona had indicated. After reviewing the footage on that, I do not see an issue with what was said. It was not directed at members here. The member for Edmonton Strathcona specifically said, “Conservative social media people...identified as being in the pocket of Putin”, so it was not referencing individuals here in the House.
Again, I want to ask members to please be careful with respect to how things are said. Sometimes, they are misunderstood or misconstrued.
The hon. deputy government House leader has a point of order.
