There are a lot of epithets going around today, and I think we should maybe refrain from some of them. The hon. member for Beauce.

In the interest of fairness, when that word was used before by another member, I expressed disappointment, and I will do the same, because I want to be consistent. I just do not think that elevates us in the eyes of the public. The hon. Minister of Industry.

I will give the member a few extra seconds, because it was very loud on the left, like it can be very loud at the back on the right. It is a good way for the Chair to learn the names of ridings when members do that. I will give the hon. minister a little more time.

At this end, it is difficult to hear exactly what is being said way back in the corner, but I will concur that the member for Hamilton West—Ancaster—Dundas is disruptive in question period. I will not argue with the member on that. I did not hear what was being said. I keep my ears open and I endeavour to react to such disturbances. They are coming from both sides, but I take the member's point ab…

I do not need to rewatch it, because I heard some of those adjectives. I will ponder on what the member is saying. Yes, we have a duty to uphold a minimum level of decorum.

That is unparliamentary, because anything that creates disruption is unparliamentary, regardless of whether a word is…
