Before I go to Statements by Members, I want to remind hon. members that, when they bring friends to the House of Commons, especially when they are in the back by the lobbies, they should make sure they keep the volume of their friends down a bit.

Before I go to Statements by Members, I want to remind hon. members that, when they bring friends to the House of Commons, especially when they are in the back by the lobbies, they should make sure they keep the volume of their friends down a bit. During a couple of speeches, there was lots of noise going on in the lobbies. I would ask that members keep their conversations down a minimum roar so that conversations can be held here in the House of Commons.

Order. Members cannot mention the name of a member who is in the chamber. The hon. member for Peterborough—Kawartha.
Government Orders
Call in the members.
Government Orders
Pursuant to Standing Order 67.1, there will now be a 30-minute question period.

The hon. member for Sherwood Park—Fort Saskatchewan.
Private Members' Business
The time provided for the consideration of Private Members' Business has now expired and the order is dropped to the bottom of the order of precedence on the Order Paper.
Government Orders
It is my duty to interrupt the proceedings at this time and put forthwith the question on the motion now before the House. The question is on the motion. If a member of a recognized party present in the House wishes that the motion be carried or carried on division or wishes to request a recorded division, I would invite them to rise and indicate it to the Chair.
Government Orders
I appreciate the clarification from the hon. member for Timmins—James Bay. It always makes it exciting on these long evenings. Continuing debate, the hon. member for Essex.
Government Orders
Order. I would rather the member stood up to ask a question. I would love to hear it because I can only hear half of what is going on. The hon. parliamentary secretary can back up a little bit.
Government Orders
I am just making sure everybody gets to participate so they can get their thoughts in. Questions and comments, the hon. parliamentary secretary to the government House leader.
Government Orders
I want to issue a reminder that using props is against the rules. In this case, it was a page from a document. I would like the member to go get the piece of paper that he used as a prop and threw on the floor. Then we can continue with questions and comments. Thank you very much.
Government Orders
I will review the video to determine exactly what was said and come back to the House with a ruling. Resuming debate. The hon. Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of Canadian Heritage.

I would like to say that everything was nice and quiet until someone asked for some heckling. The hon. member for St. Catharines has the floor.
Government Orders
Order. I want to suggest to folks that if they get a little too excited, it is really nice outside. They can go outside and say hi to their friends or take a walk. It is sunny. Maybe they can grab a glass water or something like that. Resuming debate, the hon. member for New Brunswick Southwest.
Government Orders
Order. I would like it if people could just have a nice discussion on what is going on, but I would also suggest to folks that extra heckling is a little too much sometimes.

Oral Questions
We are getting into a place where we know something is happening, but we cannot really say here on the floor of the chamber whether somebody is here or not. We need to be careful and judicious in the words we are using in our questions. I will go back to the hon. member for Winnipeg Centre and ask her to back up and restart her question, and try to stay away from who is here and who is not here.
Oral Questions
I would like to remind the member that he is coming close to saying something that he is not allowed to say in the House. Members are not permitted to draw attention to the presence or the absence of a member. I would ask the hon. member to rephrase his question. The hon. member for Rosemont—La Petite-Patrie.

Government Orders
Before we move on, I just want to remind members that when they are banging on their desk it does transmit into the microphone, and those who are doing the interpretation have a hard time with that sometimes. Continuing debate, the hon. member for Moose Jaw—Lake Centre—Lanigan.
