At least there was some humour out of all the gloom and doom from yesterday, love the CBC's hard hitting journalism.

A babbling baby briefly halted Finance Minister Bill Morneau as he was delivering his first federal budget in the House of Commons on Tuesday. Although precisely what the baby was babbling about is hard to make out, it sounded like "no, no, no" over and over. All this while Morneau spoke about the middle class and restoring "prosperity and optimism" with the budget.
At first, Morneau tried to power through the baby's babbles. But it wasn't long before there was laughter, heckling and some disapproving glares from a few MPs seated behind the finance minister. Morneau cracked a smile and stopped the budget speech to have a sip of water.
It wasn't the first baby noises of the day — shrieks and squeals could also be heard during question period. The culprit may very well be baby Daphnée, the daughter of NDP MP Christine Moore.
I'm all for modernizing the House as an institution and making things better from a family balance perspective, but maybe when the budget is being tabled or during question period it should be a grownups only (using that term loosely) policy in the chamber.
