Before I recognize the Prime Minister, I would like to remind members not to make fun of each other, which is unparliamentary. We do not call each other names. This is a reminder to members on both sides of the House for the upcoming questions and answers. The right hon. Prime Minister.

Order. I apologize for interrupting the minister, but I can barely hear her answer, so I will ask everyone to breathe. Then, we will listen to the minister's answer. I would like to hear everything she says and I am going to ask her to start her intervention from the beginning. The Minister of National Revenue.

I want to remind hon. members to place their questions through the Chair and not directly to each other. The hon. Minister of Innovation, Science and Industry.

Order, please. I had somebody shouting in my ear on my left. I will not mention who he was, but I want to remind everyone that when someone is asking or answering a question, a little respect would be nice. The hon. minister.

I declare the motion carried. We have a point of order from the hon. member for Sherwood Park—Fort Saskatchewan.

I will come back to the House with that; I am looking into it. I want to see exactly what was said and the intent of what was said. Thank you for bringing that up.
