Private Members' Business

There being no amendment motions at report stage, the House will now proceed, without debate, to the putting of the question on the motion to concur in the bill at report stage.

Private Members' Business

If a member participating in person wishes that the motion be carried or carried on division, or if a member of a recognized party participating in person wishes to request a recorded division, I would invite them to rise and indicate it to the Chair.

Is that agreed?

Private Members' Business

The Chair wishes to draw the attention of the House to a particular situation concerning Bill C-323, an act to amend the Excise Tax Act regading mental health services, standing in the name of the hon. member for Cumberland—Colchester. The bill was previously the subject of a ruling on December 12, 2023. The Chair addressed the similarity between Bill C-323 and Bill C-59, an act to implement certa…

Private Members' Business

The amendment is in order. The time provided for the consideration of Private Members' Business has now expired, and it is dropped to the bottom of the order of precedence on the Order Paper. It being 2:31 p.m., the House now stands adjourned until Monday at 11 a.m., pursuant to Standing Order 24(1). (The House adjourned at 2:31 p.m.)

It is my duty to lay upon the table, pursuant to subsection 40(1) of the Privacy Act and subsection 25(1) of the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act, the Privacy Commissioner's report for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2024. Pursuant to Standing Order 108(3)(h), this report is deemed to have been permanently referred to the Standing Committee on Access to Information, Pr…

Routine Proceedings

Yes, but in a point of order, we normally have to look at what standing order we are specifically looking at, because what I am hearing sounds more in the line with a question of privilege, which requires an hour's notice to go to the House. I do not really want to cut the hon. member off, and I understand the sensitivity around this, but I want to make sure that we are following the Standing Orde…

Routine Proceedings

We are getting into the debate of the other night. Could I ask specifically what the point of order is, or what standing order the member is referring to so that we can have a better idea of what we are looking at? The hon. member for Winnipeg Centre.

Routine Proceedings

How about if we speak off-line about this to see what would be most appropriate? It sounds like it may be something that would fall more into the privilege range, and there is a different process for that if we are looking at a specific standing order to try to make a case. I understand the importance of what the hon. member is trying to bring forward, but I think the tool that is being used is no…

Routine Proceedings

I think it would be best to consult with the Table and see how we can tighten it up just a little to make sure that it is in the correct order for hearing in the chamber. Let us do that. We will see if we can come back with that.

Routine Proceedings

Private Members' Business

Seeing no further speakers, I recognize the hon. member for Cowichan—Malahat—Langford for his five-minute right of reply.

Government Orders

I cannot answer that, but maybe the hon. member for Kenora can.

Government Orders

It being 7:19 p.m., pursuant to order made on Tuesday, June 4, it is my duty to interrupt the proceedings and put forthwith every question necessary to dispose of the report stage of the bill now before the House.

I declare the motion defeated.

It being Wednesday, we will now have the singing of the national anthem. The singing of O Canada will be done by the pages today. [Pages sang the national anthem]

If only the pages could do that every Wednesday, it would be great. I thank all the pages. I do want to quickly thank them for all of their hard work. I know we have only a few weeks left with them. There is a big gang of them here, and I just want to thank each and every one of them for their participation in the program and for the great work they have done during this season.

Oral Questions

I just need to remind individuals that we cannot say whether someone is here or not, so please be careful on those lines. The hon. member for Regina—Qu'Appelle.

Oral Questions

I would caution members to be careful in using the proper names of individuals in the chamber. The hon. government House leader.

Oral Questions

Order. That is enough. The hon. government House leader.

Oral Questions

The hon. member for Louis-Saint-Laurent.

Oral Questions

That is not a point of order. Just after we said congratulations to the pages for their great job in singing O Canada, it is a shame that we have to say that they lost at soccer. I really think the hon. member should apologize for that.

Oral Questions

I wish to draw the attention of members to the presence in the gallery of Mr. Salvatore Sciacchitano and Mr. Juan Carlos Salazar, representing the International Civil Aviation Organization as council president and secretary-general, respectively.

Oral Questions

I would also like to draw the attention of members to the presence in the gallery of the Hon. Barb Ramsay, Minister of Social Development and Seniors for the Province of Prince Edward Island.

Private Members' Business

The House will now proceed to the taking of the deferred recorded division on the motion at second reading stage of Bill C-353 under Private Members' Business.

Government Orders

I will remind members not to use the proper names of members in the House. The hon. member for Winnipeg Centre is what I think the hon. member meant. The hon. member for Victoria.

Government Orders

The hon. member knows that we cannot use proper names. The hon. member for Victoria.

Government Orders

Let us have a quick count. We obviously do not have a quorum right now, so I will have to call in the members. And the bells having rung:

Government Orders

We now have quorum. The hon. member for Victoria.

Government Orders

Order. I need to remind members about referring to the proper names of members of the Parliament. This is the third time this has happened in a row, and it gives an opportunity for the podium to be inserted into the hon. member's desk. The hon. parliamentary secretary.

Government Orders

I just hope they get along and talk about the Edmonton Oilers at some point. The hon. member for Edmonton Griesbach.
