Thomas Mulcair
Procedure and House Affairs committee Right, so you let him come in and make that statement but you won't even give us equal time.

Thomas Mulcair
Procedure and House Affairs committee Everybody watching now has all the information that they need, Mr. Chairman. They understand that the government is using its majority, with their Liberal henchmen, to try to call the official opposition to account. It's unprecedented. But do you know what?

Thomas Mulcair
Procedure and House Affairs committee They're from 2011. They're from 2012. They're from 2014. They always mention the Montreal office. When the rule was changed on April 8, 2014, we respected the new rule, the same way we respected the existing rules prior to that date, Mr. Casey. There's never been a problem. Their

Procedure and House Affairs committee The rule came into force on April 8, 2014, effective April 14, 2014, and we've been obeying it since it came into force.
May 15th, 2014Committee meeting
Thomas Mulcair
Procedure and House Affairs committee You can just imagine if somebody were to create a penalty after the fact for something that you've already done that wasn't, up until then, an offence. That's the essence of the argument on the Conservative side of this discussion today. The reason that the new rule was brought
May 15th, 2014Committee meeting
Thomas Mulcair
Procedure and House Affairs committee It is intriguing to ask that question, because you can immediately imagine that Conservatives heading for third if not fourth party status, and Liberals heading for maybe third party status, if they're lucky, could want to bring back a rule on the dissolution of the next Parliame
