Point of order then, for clarification purposes.
I'm not a novice when it comes to sitting on committees, but I'm certainly new to this committee. It is my understanding, through all of the committee work I have done, that when a member has a point of order and wishes to speak, he be given the right to do so.
Mr. Desnoyers has been patiently waiting with his hand up, trying to get your attention. I'm just trying to suggest to you that in the interest of fairness, we hear the member opposite here.
