Mr. Spooker, in recognizing it's All Hallows Eve, from time to time, as you know, I attempt to bring a little levity to this House. Mr. Speaker, it's important that we help keep our job interesting and engaging, not to mention laugh at ourselves, as we try to keep grounded. So today, strictly in jest, I've elected to make my All Hallows Eve statement in the theme of Adams Family or, rather, the Simpson Cabinet family. I do apologize in advance for the singing trauma I intend to inflict. It may be a trick, but it may be truly a treat. And, of course, I welcome Members to join in with me during the chorus or the snapping of the fingers. So, Mr. Spooker, shall we begin.
[Musical snapping of fingers and verbal melody]
Our Cabinet's kind of spooky. Their policies are often whooky. Their vision's quite mysterious. The Simpson Cabinet family.
[Musical snapping of fingers and verbal melody]
Most days I dread to see them. Their plans have Members screaming. Their decision can be cryptic. The Simpson Cabinet family.
[Musical snapping of fingers and verbal melody]
The Members are here a' working. We're not here to scare 'em. We're bringing solutions to them. To the Simpson Cabinet family.
[Musical snapping of fingers and verbal melody].
So the budget's leave us a scratching. But beware of their distractions. The Cabinet may be icky because they are the Simpson Cabinet family. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.

Thank you, Member from Yellowknife Centre. Bring little humour. I'll have to thank you very much. It was quite enjoyable. Members' statements.
