It's the same thing.

(Amendment negatived [See Minutes of Proceedings])

4:50 p.m.

Conservative

The Chair Conservative Daryl Kramp

We go to le Parti Vert, amendment PV-9.

4:50 p.m.

Green

Elizabeth May Green Saanich—Gulf Islands, BC

Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Again, I'm attempting to delete lines 4 to 9 on page 11, as they are further examples of an illegitimate attempt by the government to do indirectly what it can't do directly.

My reasons will someday be clear in a future Supreme Court of Canada decision.

4:50 p.m.

Conservative

The Chair Conservative Daryl Kramp

Thank you very much.

Is there further discussion?

(Amendment negatived [See Minutes of Proceedings])

Now we go to LIB-22.

4:50 p.m.

Liberal

Hedy Fry Liberal Vancouver Centre, BC

I cannot move that, Mr. Chair. It was just defeated in the last motion.

4:50 p.m.

Conservative

The Chair Conservative Daryl Kramp

Excuse me?

4:50 p.m.

Liberal

Hedy Fry Liberal Vancouver Centre, BC

That's the same motion I was making. I can't move it.

4:50 p.m.

Conservative

The Chair Conservative Daryl Kramp

No, it is just so moved.

4:50 p.m.

Liberal

Hedy Fry Liberal Vancouver Centre, BC

No, I can't move it; it was just defeated. It's the same as Ms. May's, and that has just been defeated.

4:50 p.m.

Conservative

The Chair Conservative Daryl Kramp

Oh, thank you very kindly.

Then now you are on, with LIB-23.

4:50 p.m.

Liberal

Hedy Fry Liberal Vancouver Centre, BC

Again, this is about all of the privileged information; it's too intrusive. It's to delete that clause.

(Amendment negatived [See Minutes of Proceedings])

4:50 p.m.

Conservative

The Chair Conservative Daryl Kramp

Now we go to LIB-24.

4:50 p.m.

Liberal

Hedy Fry Liberal Vancouver Centre, BC

It's the same rationale: it's too intrusive.

(Amendment negatived [See Minutes of Proceedings])

4:50 p.m.

Conservative

The Chair Conservative Daryl Kramp

We go to LIB-25.

4:50 p.m.

Liberal

Hedy Fry Liberal Vancouver Centre, BC

It's too intrusive.

(Amendment negatived [See Minutes of Proceedings])

4:50 p.m.

Conservative

The Chair Conservative Daryl Kramp

We go to LIB-26.

4:55 p.m.

Liberal

Hedy Fry Liberal Vancouver Centre, BC

Again, it's too intrusive.

4:55 p.m.

Conservative

The Chair Conservative Daryl Kramp

All in favour?

The chair will slow down if you wish.

4:55 p.m.

NDP

Randall Garrison NDP Esquimalt—Juan de Fuca, BC

Yes, please.

4:55 p.m.

Conservative

The Chair Conservative Daryl Kramp

Fine, thank you very much. The chair will give a little bit more time. I don't mean to rush you.

(Amendment negatived [See Minutes of Proceedings])

We'll just take a little breather on LIB-27, then.

4:55 p.m.

Liberal

Hedy Fry Liberal Vancouver Centre, BC

Mr. Chair, again, we think this is absolutely unnecessary

4:55 p.m.

Conservative

The Chair Conservative Daryl Kramp

Thank you very much.

We will just give a second here.

4:55 p.m.

Liberal

Hedy Fry Liberal Vancouver Centre, BC

Are we allowed to speak to it?

4:55 p.m.

Conservative

The Chair Conservative Daryl Kramp

No, you're not. I'm so sorry.
