On a point of order, Mr. Chairman.
I realize that Conservative members of the Committee get a kick out of hearing their own voice and talking about nothing. If that's what turns them on, so be it; that is their right. However, the rules governing committees have to be followed, and one of those rules is that speakers do not repeat the same facts or arguments over and over again just because they feel like it. Mr. Tilson has again referred to the point raised by Mr. Wallace during his argument, if you can call it that, with respect to an article that appeared in the National Post or The Globe and Mail. I can't remember which of the two newspapers was involved. However, those arguments cannot be made twice. He will have to find new ideas if he wants to continue talking. Therefore, Mr. Chairman, I would request that you ask government members of this Committee to follow the rules. They will have to stop repeating what others or they themselves have already said.
