After Singh-Poilievre’s heated exchange, House Speaker Greg Fergus tells MPs to behave better

House of Commons Speaker Greg Fergus said before question period on Monday that he expects members of Parliament to behave better than they did last week, when an exchange between two party leaders got so heated one MP thought it may actually come to physical blows. Fergus’s warning comes after NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh stepped out from behind his desk to shout at the Conservative leader last Thursday, when Pierre Poilievre called Singh a phoney and a fraud for his refusal to vote to bring down the Liberal government.
