Privilege

The House dealt with a question of privilege raised by the member for Edmonton Strathcona, who complained that the member for Halifax had attacked her integrity by describing her opposition to Bill C-39 as “wild disinformation.” The Liberal member for Kingston and the Islands asked the Speaker to dismiss the complaint, arguing that members use the word “disinformation” routinely in debate, that the complaining member has used it herself, and that unless the House bans the word members remain free to say it. That was the only substantive statement in the debate.Written by AI from the debate. Updated .
