Routine Proceedings
The hon. parliamentary secretary to the government House leader is rising on a point of order.
Routine Proceedings
There is a point of order from the hon. member for Winnipeg North.
Routine Proceedings
On the same point of order, we have the member for Cypress Hills—Grasslands.
Routine Proceedings
This is descending into debate once again. It seems like it is the same thing. We keep falling into debate. I know that the Speaker was thinking of coming back with something on this. The hon. member for Edmonton—Wetaskiwin.
Routine Proceedings
A number of points of order came out on Thursday and Friday, and I know the Speaker is seized with trying to come back with an answer. He wants to read the transcripts and listen to the audio to make sure that what we heard is what we heard. I would rather wait for the Speaker to come back with that decision than continue. The hon. member for Cypress Hills—Grasslands is rising on a point of order.
Routine Proceedings
I said that we are done with that. The hon. member for Edmonton—Wetaskiwin.
Routine Proceedings
Before proceeding, it is my duty pursuant to Standing Order 38 to inform the House that the questions to be raised at the time of adjournment are as follows: the hon. member for Renfrew—Nipissing—Pembroke, National Defence; the hon. member for Port Moody—Coquitlam, Transportation.
Routine Proceedings
I thank the hon. minister for that notice. Resuming debate, the hon. member for Scarborough—Guildwood.
Routine Proceedings
That is close to a point of order, but the member did not specify which member was coming in or out. I think it was a general thing. I saw two members coming in at the same time, so I do not know which one he was referring to. The hon. member for Edmonton—Wetaskiwin.
Routine Proceedings
The hon. parliamentary secretary is rising on a point of order.
Routine Proceedings
I am in the chair. This is the same debate we have been having for three days, and I have ruled the member out every time he has stood there and tried to bring it forward. That is not a point of order. It is a good point of debate, but I just want to make sure we have heard it and gotten it in Hansard. We have been over it a number of times, and I am hoping that, when the debate continues, we can … Read full speechShow less
I am in the chair. This is the same debate we have been having for three days, and I have ruled the member out every time he has stood there and tried to bring it forward. That is not a point of order. It is a good point of debate, but I just want to make sure we have heard it and gotten it in Hansard. We have been over it a number of times, and I am hoping that, when the debate continues, we can maybe stop accusing each other of things and just proceed with the information we have before us. The hon. member for Edmonton—Wetaskiwin.
Routine Proceedings
When it gets into points of debate and when we are part of the point of debate, it makes it even more difficult sometimes. All I ask is that when members stand on points of order, they are based on the rules and the Standing Orders of the House of Commons. The hon. member for Edmonton—Wetaskiwin.
Routine Proceedings
I believe we have a point of order from the hon. parliamentary secretary.
Routine Proceedings
On the same point of order, the hon. member for Sherwood Park—Fort Saskatchewan.

The hon. parliamentary secretary to the government House leader.
Routine Proceedings
We are definitely getting into a grey area. The hon. member for Edmonton—Wetaskiwin.
Routine Proceedings
The hon. parliamentary secretary to the Minister of Canadian Heritage is rising on a point of order.
Routine Proceedings
I want to speak to the point of order. It is correct that the Speaker has brought it to our attention that many people will just stay standing. We would rather that they sit down, so as not to intimidate the member they are asking a question of or receiving a question from. The parliamentary secretary to the leader of the government House leader is rising on a point of order.
Routine Proceedings
I am standing, so let us follow that rule for tonight.
Routine Proceedings
Order. I would really like to get the next member started, but we need to finish up these questions and comments.
Routine Proceedings
Order. We are done. Order. The hon. member for Edmonton—Wetaskiwin has the floor.
Adjournment Proceedings
The motion to adjourn the House is now deemed to have been adopted. Accordingly, the House stands adjourned until later this day at 10 a.m. pursuant to Standing Order 24(1). (The House adjourned at 12:18 a.m.)
Government Orders
The hon. parliamentary secretary.
Government Orders
Those are not points of order either, but clarifications. The member for Cypress Hills—Grasslands is rising on a point of order.
Government Orders
That is not a point of order. It is not something I heard.
Government Orders
I appreciate the clarifications. There are a lot of clarifications today. The hon. member for Drummond.
Government Orders
All right. We are still on the point of order. I had said this would be the last point of order, but I will allow another. We could do this all day and not debate the bill. That is what we are falling into, by the looks of it. The hon. member for Battlefords—Lloydminster.
Government Orders
That is not a point of order, but a good clarification. The hon. member for Edmonton—Wetaskiwin.

Government Orders
That was not a point of order. I appreciate the sentiment, of course, of making sure that our debate remains civil and calm. I know many of the debates that come before us are extremely important, as this debate is today. I just want to make sure that the debate continues in a respectful manner. On a point of order, the hon. member for Foothills.

Again, we are descending into the debate that we are actually having here today. Still on the same point of order, the hon. member for Battlefords—Lloydminster.
Government Orders
The hon. parliamentary secretary to the government House leader is rising on a point of order.
Government Orders
Order. That’s enough. We are going to have one more round of this, and then we will move on to the questions and comments that we originally planned to do. The hon. member for Kingston and the Islands.
Government Orders
The hon. member for Oshawa.
Government Orders
With the debate we are having today, I understand the passion. The hon. member for Winnipeg North was making a comment and was going to be asking a question. I do not know if the hon. member had finished. The hon. parliamentary secretary.
Government Orders
I appreciate the question but please make sure it is directed through the Chair. The hon. member for New Westminster—Burnaby.

Government Orders
The hon. member for Kingston and the Islands is rising on a point of order.
Government Orders
Again, we are descending back into debate, and I really do not want to have to descend into debate again. We do have a member who does have time and is on the schedule. The hon. member for Kingston and the Islands.
Government Orders
Order. Order. I am just going to sit down. The hon. member for Kingston and the Islands.
Government Orders
We are done. The hon. member for Edmonton—Wetaskiwin has the floor.
Government Orders
I do not know what is going on here. We all have set times in opposition debates and we all have the opportunity to get our thoughts forward. There are members on the list. All those who wish to speak should have an opportunity to speak and to present their thoughts about the motion being debated. All members will get to speak if they do not interrupt each other or stand on these points of order f… Read full speechShow less
I do not know what is going on here. We all have set times in opposition debates and we all have the opportunity to get our thoughts forward. There are members on the list. All those who wish to speak should have an opportunity to speak and to present their thoughts about the motion being debated. All members will get to speak if they do not interrupt each other or stand on these points of order for clarification. Maybe we can do that for a little while. Let us try with a few members and see how that goes in this opposition debate today. The hon. member for Edmonton—Wetaskiwin.
Government Orders
That is not a point of order. On the same point of order, even though it is not a point of order, the hon. member for Winnipeg North.

We are descending into debate. The member has a whole three minutes left in his time. The hon. parliamentary secretary to the government House leader.
