This is what the Bloc and Conservatives took offense to.

Fergus paid tribute to former Ontario Liberal interim leader John Fraser. The video was recorded in the Speaker's office while Fergus was wearing his Speaker's robes.

I want to take the opportunity to say that the Bloc is the most significant embodiment of the perversion of democracy in Canada. For anyone who doesn't know in the 2021 elections NDP had 17.82% of the overall votes and came out with 7.4% of the seats while Bloc had 7.64% overall and 9.47% of the seats.
