1. Video from Global News showing the white-haired speaker being jokingly "dragged" by the Prime Minister Mark Carney on the right and the leader of the opposition Andrew Scheer on the left, each hold an arm of the speaker Francis Scarpaleggia. This is a tradition in the Canadian House of Commons, and Scarpaleggia is offering only token resistance.
