Debates of March 4th, 1997

Canada Labour Code

[Bob Kilger, Liberal, Stormont—Dundas, ON]

Madam Speaker, I think you will find unanimous consent that those members who voted on the previous motion be recorded as having voted on the motion now before the House, the hon. member for Cochrane-Superior being added to the list and the hon. members for St. Boniface and Renfrew-Nipissing-Pembroke being removed from the list. Liberal members will vote no.

Madam Speaker, the members of the official opposition will vote yes.

[Chuck Strahl, Reform, Fraser Valley East, BC]

Madam Speaker, Reform members present will vote yes unless instructed otherwise by their constituents.

[John Solomon, NDP, Regina—Lumsden, SK]

Madam Speaker, New Democrat members present vote no on this motion.

(The House divided on Motion No. 5, which was negatived on the following division:)

[The Acting Speaker (Mrs. Ringuette-Maltais)]

I declare Motion No. 5 lost.

The next question is on Motion No. 6.

[Bob Kilger, Liberal, Stormont—Dundas, ON]

Madam Speaker, if the House would agree I would propose you seek unanimous consent that members who voted on the previous motion be recorded as having voted on the motion now before the House, with Liberal members voting nay.

[Madeleine Dalphond-Guiral, Bloc, Laval Centre, QC]

Madam Speaker, the members of the official opposition will vote no.

[The Acting Speaker (Mrs. Ringuette-Maltais)]

[Bob Kilger, Liberal, Stormont—Dundas, ON]

Madam Speaker, I believe you will find consent to apply the results of the vote just taken to Motions Nos. 45, 49, 11, 24, 28, 29, 26, 31, 42, 47 and 37.

[Madeleine Dalphond-Guiral, Bloc, Laval Centre, QC]

We agree.

[Dale Johnston, Reform, Wetaskiwin, AB]

Madam Speaker, did the government whip say Motion No. 47 or 37?

[The Acting Speaker (Mrs. Ringuette-Maltais)]

Both motions.

[Chuck Strahl, Reform, Fraser Valley East, BC]

Madam Speaker, I do not think it is the fault of the government whip but a mistake was made. The application of the vote to Motion No. 37 is correct. The application to Motion No. 47 is not correct for the Reform Party. All the others are right.

[Bob Kilger, Liberal, Stormont—Dundas, ON]

I agree, Madam Speaker. The vote applies to Motion No. 37 but not to Motion No. 47.

[The Acting Speaker (Mrs. Ringuette-Maltais)]

MotionsNos. 45, 49, 11, 24, 28, 29, 26, 31, 42 and 37 are lost. Consequently Motions Nos. 41, 51, 25 and 43 are also lost.

The next question is on Motion No. 7.

[Bob Kilger, Liberal, Stormont—Dundas, ON]

Madam Speaker, if you were to seek it, you would find unanimous consent that members who voted on the previous motion, except for the hon. members for Hamilton West and London East, be recorded as having voted on the motion now before the House, with Liberal members voting nay.

[Madeleine Dalphond-Guiral, Bloc, Laval Centre, QC]

Members of the official opposition will vote yea.

[Chuck Strahl, Reform, Fraser Valley East, BC]

Madam Speaker, Reform Party members present will vote no.

[John Solomon, NDP, Regina—Lumsden, SK]

Madam Speaker, New Democratic Party members present will vote no on this motion.
