Mr. Schmidt: Now I hear the Minister of Justice raising his voice. I wish that he had raised his voice sometime between the end of June and the end of September, when vaccine passports were in place, because there were 80,000 people who got sick with COVID, and that minister said absolutely nothing.
Mr. Hunter: Calm down. Calm down. Holy smokes.
Mr. Schmidt: I hear the Member for Taber-Warner telling me to calm down. You know what we would like to see, Mr. Speaker?
Mr. Dang: Point of order.
The Acting Speaker: A point of order has been called. I’m surprised, although I am interested in hearing the hon. Member for Edmonton-South. I would also just like to make a comment with regard to tone in the House. I think one of the main jobs of the Speaker is to ensure that we have healthy, effective debate, and if individuals are outright screaming at . . .
Mr. Yao: Point of privilege.
The Acting Speaker: You cannot call a point of privilege in the middle of a point of order. That’s my understanding. So we will deal with the point of order first, and if it is not withdrawn, then we will move to the point of privilege.
Mr. Hunter: Point of order as well.
The Acting Speaker: You cannot call a point of order within a point of order either. What we will do is that we will deal with the point of order, this one. Then we will consider a point of privilege. Then we will consider a point of order.
