A number of members wish to speak to this, so I will give the floor to the House leaders of each party. The hon. member for La Prairie.

The hon. member for Mégantic—L'Érable is rising on a point of order.

What I will say on this one is that we are not supposed to be wearing things that say something on them, that have writing on them. I know the hon. member is wearing something from Easter Seals; I will let her complete her report, but I will remind all members to be more judicious in what they are wearing in the chamber. The hon. member for Waterloo.

Again, the rule is more about slogans and props. They all fit in the same group of rules. If everyone would like to indulge me, I would be more than happy to read some of the rules, and then we will go back to the order. Chapter 13, the “Rules of Order and Decorum”, on page 611, reads: While the Standing Orders do not prescribe a dress code for Members participating in debate, Speakers have ruled …

I think I made that clear. I allowed the rules to be bent this one time in the interest of getting through Routine Proceedings, but let us just say it will not happen again. I believe that if we want to talk about what we are wearing in the chamber, I would invite the caucuses to maybe put a motion on the floor so that the Standing Committee on Procedure and House Affairs can look at it. It is not…

The hon. member for Shefford on a point of order.

That is a good recommendation, and something I mention quite often. I would remind hon. members to put their cellphones on their chairs or in their pockets, away from the microphones on the desks. The hon. member for Waterloo is rising on a point of order.

It is my duty, pursuant to Standing Order 38, to inform the House that the questions to be raised tonight at the time of adjournment are as follows: the hon. member for Sherwood Park—Fort Saskatchewan, Democratic Institutions; the hon. member for North Okanagan—Shuswap, Carbon Pricing; and the hon. member for Spadina—Fort York, Democratic Institutions.

Order. The hon. parliamentary secretary is rising on a point of order.

I will also suggest to members that we are here for debate. Let us have a debate, rather than just yelling at each other across the way. I think all issues that come before this House, regardless of what they are or who they are for, are important to Canadians. Let us have the debate that is on the docket for tonight, and let us be respectful of one another. The hon. member for Elgin—Middlesex—Lon…

Of course, members need to make sure that they run their questions through the Chair and not ask a question directly to the member. The hon. member for Elgin—Middlesex—London.

I just want to make sure people in the gallery sit down when they come to visit us. I see one of our members is giving a bit of a tour. I would ask him to sit down. The hon. member for King—Vaughan.

Before we go to the next speaker and I run off, I want to make sure that everybody prays for a bit of rain for Nova Scotia. Resuming debate, the hon. member for Regina—Qu'Appelle.

All right. Once again I will ask everyone to take a deep breath. The hon. parliamentary secretary.

I think the hon. member was ready to retract that. The hon. parliamentary secretary was really quick to admonish the hon. member for Winnipeg North. The hon. member has the floor.

I thank the member for his statement. I believe there are a couple of interventions. The hon. member for New Westminster—Burnaby.

Of course, we ask that members come back as soon as possible so that we can review this quickly and come back to the House as soon as possible. Resuming debate, the hon. member for Lac-Saint-Jean.

I am glad that the member did mention the forest fires back home. In my old constituency of Argyle-Barrington, a number of people have been shipped away, not knowing if they can go back home. I know that people in the riding of Halifax West are going through the same thing; thousands of people have been sent away, evacuated from the area. Of course, our thoughts and prayers are with them, and we h…
