Finance Committee on Nov. 21st, 2012

[Mauril Bélanger, Liberal, Ottawa—Vanier, ON]

Once again, Mr. Chair, I am calling for a recorded vote.

[The Chair, Conservative, James Rajotte]

It will be a recorded vote.

(Clause 110 agreed to [See Minutes of Proceedings])

Shall clause 111 carry?

[Mauril Bélanger, Liberal, Ottawa—Vanier, ON]

Mr. Chair, I would like to have a recorded vote.

[The Chair, Conservative, James Rajotte]

It will be a recorded vote.

(Clause 111 agreed to [See Minutes of Proceedings])

[Mauril Bélanger, Liberal, Ottawa—Vanier, ON]

I have a question, Mr. Chair.

Can we say “yes”, “no”, “absolutely”, in any way? Tell me.

[The Chair, Conservative, James Rajotte]

I think as long as the clerk understands what you are voting in favour of or against....

[Mauril Bélanger, Liberal, Ottawa—Vanier, ON]

So we can be creative. Okay. We will have a lot of fun.

[The Chair, Conservative, James Rajotte]

We're all about innovation at the finance committee.

Shall clause 112 carry?

[Mauril Bélanger, Liberal, Ottawa—Vanier, ON]

I call for a recorded vote, please.

[The Chair, Conservative, James Rajotte]

It will be a recorded vote.

(Clause 112 agreed to [See Minutes of Proceedings])

Shall clause 113 carry?

[Mauril Bélanger, Liberal, Ottawa—Vanier, ON]

Maybe, but only if it's following a recorded vote, Mr. Chair.

[The Chair, Conservative, James Rajotte]

We will have a recorded vote.

(Clause 113 agreed to [See Minutes of Proceedings])

Mr. Bélanger, wasn't your answer a “no”?

[Mauril Bélanger, Liberal, Ottawa—Vanier, ON]

No, I said “why not”, which means “yes”.

[The Chair, Conservative, James Rajotte]

Good. It was another unanimous one. This is a very popular bill lately.

We will go to clause 114.

Shall clause 114 carry?

[Mauril Bélanger, Liberal, Ottawa—Vanier, ON]

Mr. Chair, this may surprise you, but I will ask for a recorded vote again.

[The Chair, Conservative, James Rajotte]

It will be a recorded vote.

(Clause 114 agreed to [See Minutes of Proceedings])

Mr. Chair, go ahead with a recorded vote.

(Clause 115 agreed to [See Minutes of Proceedings])

We need to make sure the clerk understands clearly whether we're voting in favour or against. Thank you.
