I thank the hon. member. I did not catch it. I am not perfect. I did mention that using false titles is not allowed in the chamber. We will go back and look at it to see exactly what words were used and come back.

Before we move on, I just want to say that “puppets” is one of the words we tend not to use. Earlier, we heard “sellout”. A number of false titles have been used, and I want to make sure that everybody stays away from false titles today during question period.

I have the floor. Let me finish talking, then I will recognize the hon. member. I said I would go back and look at it. I allowed the member to ask that question. The member is answering the question that was posed to him. We are still going to go back and look at what is going on. If the hon. member accepted that I allowed the question to be asked, then everyone should allow the answer to be given…

I was giving the hon. member for Leeds—Grenville—Thousand Islands and Rideau Lakes the full opportunity to answer that as he saw fit. I was not the one standing on points of order and stopping it. I allowed that. In the House, when somebody stands on a point of order, I have to recognize them. It is in the Standing Orders. I can cut members off when I feel they are not points of order, which I did…

Read full speech →Government Orders
Order. With all the seriousness of this debate, I would ask hon. members to keep their comments to themselves and participate in the questions and comments portion of our debate.
