Mr. Speaker, I would like to take this occasion to advise the House that, for the eighth consecutive year, North York General Hospital, in my riding of Don Valley North, has been Canada's top-ranked community academic hospital.

Mr. Speaker, I have a great deal of respect for my colleague across the aisle, but the Conservatives are demonstrating classic obstructionist behaviour from committee. We have seen this. They are distracting from the real work we are doing to improve health care across the country. Let us set the record straight. The Conservatives voted against health care.

Mr. Speaker, the hon. member works really tirelessly for his community, and I respect him a lot for that.

I look forward to working with him to resolve any outstanding issues that he has brought up.

C-242 Mr. Speaker, it is a privilege to rise today to speak to Bill, the Conservative bill on Canada's bail system. I want to begin with something that unites every member of this House.

I have a point of order. Can we take turns, please? I also think it's difficult for the interpreter to catch up on the.... Thank you.

Chair, I just really didn't appreciate the tone.

I also want to ask you about the national conversation on the well-being of men and boys, recognizing the growing concerns around mental health, social isolation and access to services. Could you explain why the conversation is so important at this juncture and how the health portfolio can help improve mental health outcomes for men and boys across the country?
