Diversity and Inclusion  Mr. Speaker, disinformation, extremism and violent hate are on the rise around the world, including here at home.

The Budget  Mr. Speaker, I rise on a point of order. The Conservatives seem to have taken offence to that and are now heckling the member on his assertion that fifth graders do understand a lot and can contribute. Perhaps you could ask the Conservatives to keep the heckling down so the membe
