Mr. Speaker, if I may, on behalf of the members of the Bloc Québécois and our teams, I too would like to thank you and to thank the Clerk of the House, the Chief Administrator, the Sergeant-at-Arms and their entire teams in all areas, including finance, human resources, IT, the Parliamentary Protective Service and food services. I would like to thank all the staff who, day in and day out, make our jobs easier and support us in our daily work. I wish to extend a special, sincere and heartfelt thanks to our Bloc Québécois allies, for they are our voice and our ears. A very special thank you goes to the interpreters, who have had a tough time this year. We in the Bloc Québécois owe them a great deal because they truly are our voice and our ears. They never cease to impress. I congratulate them. We are impressed with the work of all the employees of the House of Commons and the entire administration, but it is fair to say that the interpreters are the favourites of the Bloc Québécois. We want to thank the government, leader and whip teams. We also want to thank the official opposition and the NDP. We have proven time and time again that when we work as a team toward the collective good, we can succeed. We would also like to thank the extraordinary staff who make us better MPs and better legislators. On behalf of myself and the Bloc Québécois, I hope everyone has a great summer. Enjoy.

Mr. Speaker, I rise on a point of order. I would also like to take this opportunity to thank the incredible folks who support the work that we do in this place. I would like to offer my gratitude, and the gratitude of all members of the New Democratic Party, to those who help us do our jobs in this esteemed place; to you, Mr. Speaker; to the clerks at the table; to the security personnel; and the incredible interpreters, who do so much. I thank all of our interpreters. I give a special mention to Cindy Runzer, who will be retiring. I thank her very much for her service to us. I would also like to thank those who feed us every day. I thank the amazing team of pages and the page supervisor. On behalf of all New Democrats, I want to thank everyone from the bottom of our hearts. I hope everyone in the House has a wonderful summer with their family and loved ones in their ridings, listening to their constituents.

Mr. Speaker, I would also like to add a few words to say a big thank you to all the teams at the House of Commons. I would like to thank the Speaker, the clerks and the pages, who have done great work while also studying. These young people from across Canada continue to inspire me. They work so hard. When we work long hours, we sometimes forget that our pages are here working hard too. They then have to go back and cram for exams. I say thanks to the pages, their families across Canada and all of the team here on the Hill, from the catering team to the waitresses, the cooks and waiters, and our security team. I particularly thank the Parliamentary Protective Service here on the Hill, which is here to keep us safe every single day. We have immense gratitude. I thank all of my colleagues. I thank the member for Battle River—Crowfoot and the member for Skeena—Bulkley Valley. It is too bad that we could not get unanimous consent. I was hoping for a team win here in the last few minutes.

Dear colleagues, as we prepare to focus on our families and our constituents, I too want to take a moment to thank all those who have made it possible for us to do our work here in the House of Commons. On behalf of all members, all parliamentarians, I offer my sincere thanks to administration employees. Without them, we could never have continued our work. I am referring to the interpreters, the IT team, the maintenance staff, the clerks, the pages, the broadcasting team, and members of the Parliamentary Protective Service, here to keep us safe, day after day. This year they faced some challenges. I would like to sincerely thank members of the team for their daily dedication. Their service inspires us, and we always appreciate it. All members, and especially those who support them, have earned a break. I wish everyone a safe and restful summer and time to connect with their constituents and with their loved ones.
