Mr. Chair, if we add up the minutes, what my colleague has just said is not fair. The NDP gets the floor once, but for 10 minutes. The Liberals get to speak three times, for a total of 20 minutes. If we divide that by three, it equals seven minutes each. The Bloc Québécois gets ten plus five minutes, for a total of 15 minutes; that also works out to seven and a half minutes. So, given the number of NDP members, I think that this party's right to speak for 10 minutes is quite fair in relation to that of the other parties.
