Mr. Speaker, I rise to address the question of privilege that was raised by the member for Barrie—Innisfil earlier today. I want to take this opportunity to apologize sincerely and unreservedly to all members of Parliament for the unfortunate event that transpired last Friday. I ask the House and its members to forgive me for my lapse in judgment. I take this matter extremely seriously and I promise never to repeat this ever again.

I would like to return to the question of privilege raised earlier today by the House leader of the official opposition. I thank the member for raising this matter. All members, individually and collectively, are responsible for maintaining the dignity of the House. In light of the, I believe, sincere apology from the member for Brampton Centre, I consider the matter closed. With that said, as the Assistant Deputy Speaker stated earlier in response to the question of privilege, I too take this opportunity to again encourage all members to always be vigilant when participating remotely in proceedings of the House. If members do not have to have the camera on, turn it off. If they do not have to be in voting, turn it off.
