Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre is not allowed to speak in the House of Commons today as his public feud with Foreign Affairs Minister Mélanie Joly spilled into a second day.

House Speaker Greg Fergus delivered the penalty to Poilievre this morning, a day after he asked the leader of the opposition to withdraw a remark made yesterday accusing Joly of pandering to supporters of the terrorist organization Hamas.
