Before we begin, we have some angelic voices up in the Speaker's Gallery today. With the summer adjournment approaching, I would like to thank the pages for their extraordinary work this year. Voices: Hear, hear! The Speaker: Normally, on the first Wednesday in June, the House of Commons pages sing the national anthem at the beginning of the sitting. However, these past two years have been exceptional for everyone, including this year's group of pages. Although they are not able to sing grouped together on the floor of the House this year, the pages will lead the anthem from the Speaker's Gallery to safely maintain tradition. [Pages sang the national anthem]

I am going to have to interrupt the Right Hon. Prime Minister. I am trying to hear the answer, and I am sure the hon. member for Elgin—Middlesex—London wants to hear the answer as well, so I am going to ask everyone to tone it down a bit. There are a couple of members out there who have very strong voices, and I admire them, but please try to restrain them while somebody else is speaking. The Right Hon. Prime Minister, right from the top, please.

We are getting close to the end, and I know everybody is getting excited, but I would just like to remind members, especially the ones with loud voices that carry well, that I can hear them. As well, some of them do not have masks on, so I can see their lips moving. I know who they are. The hon. member for West Vancouver—Sunshine Coast—Sea to Sky Country.
