Madam Speaker, I rise with a heavy heart as well. As many know, my family is first nations as well. The comments that came from the member for Sydney—Victoria on a day before truth and reconciliation day are indeed damaging. I remind the House that not only did the member for Sydney—Victoria use disparaging remarks toward indigenous women prior to his elected life, but our Prime Minister also heckled indigenous protesters and thanked them for their donation. Madam Speaker, through you, I ask for unanimous support to table a document that highlights that our Prime Minister thanked indigenous protesters for their donation when they were protesting his inability to fight the potable water situation in our first nations communities throughout our country. This is shameless. I seek unanimous support to table this document.
