Mr. Speaker, my colleague had previously asked the member if he could cite an example of the use of the religious exemption.

Does the member genuinely believe that a pastor or a priest in a gurdwara would really be in difficult times by just quoting from the Guru Granth Sahib or a holy book? Does he really believe that?
