Mr. Speaker, on the anniversary of the birth of Guru Nanak Dev Ji, the founder of the Sikh religion, two local media outlets in Surrey—Newton, Connect FM and RED FM, held radiothon fundraisers. Through the generous support of the community, RED FM raised over $1 million for the Surrey Hospitals Foundation, to bring two much-needed cardiac cath labs to Surrey Memorial Hospital, which will be the first-ever labs built south of the Fraser River. Connect FM raised over $175,000 in support of the Guru Nanak's Free Kitchen, a community organization that has been feeding those in need in the Downtown Eastside of Vancouver and other areas of B.C. since 2006. I thank all those who gave generously to both these worthy causes, and to the leadership, staff and volunteers of Connect FM and RED FM.

Madam Speaker, constituents in Surrey—Newton and across Canada are watching to see that we are investing in Canadians. They are going to see who is supporting them and who is not, so I request a recorded division.

Madam Speaker, I rise on a point of order. It has been over 12 hours of continuous voting, and I want to thank all the table officers, the pages, the security officers and the support staff who have put the effort in to make this possible. The only thing it has served is the ego and the arrogance of the leader of the official opposition.
