Finance Committee on May 29th, 2023

[The Chair, Liberal, Peter Fonseca]

I know. I said it was not a point of order.

[Some hon. members]

[Inaudible—Editor]

[The Chair, Liberal, Peter Fonseca]

Members, members, members, members. I see that food has arrived, so you can always go get your food, but we're on clause 351.

Shall clause 351 carry?

(Clauses 351 and 352 agreed to: yeas 7; nays 4)

[Philip Lawrence, Conservative, Northumberland—Peterborough South, ON]

Mr. Chair, I have a point of order.

I find it interesting to hear the Liberals talk about fiscal restraint and responsibility. Giving—

[The Chair, Liberal, Peter Fonseca]

Just like the other, it is not a point of order.

[Philip Lawrence, Conservative, Northumberland—Peterborough South, ON]

I would just ask for equal time.

[Sophie Chatel, Liberal, Pontiac, QC]

You're wasting taxpayers' money.

[The Chair, Liberal, Peter Fonseca]

We'll continue to move forward, members.

[Sophie Chatel, Liberal, Pontiac, QC]

You are wasting taxpayers' money.

[The Chair, Liberal, Peter Fonseca]

Members, MP Chatel, for everybody's sake here—

[Sophie Chatel, Liberal, Pontiac, QC]

I'm sorry, Mr. Chair. I care when they're wasting taxpayers' money.

[Ed Fast, Conservative, Abbotsford, BC]

What's your budget deficit?

[The Chair, Liberal, Peter Fonseca]

MP Fast....

MP Chatel, please.

As you know, the motion—there's no debate, there's no talk, etc. This is not a point of order.

Shall clause 353 carry?

[Philip Lawrence, Conservative, Northumberland—Peterborough South, ON]

I have a point of order, Mr. Chair.

I just ask for equal time. I would say, briefly—

[Sophie Chatel, Liberal, Pontiac, QC]

You're wasting taxpayers' money.

[Philip Lawrence, Conservative, Northumberland—Peterborough South, ON]

—every moment we stop this government spending trillions of dollars, we are saving—

[The Chair, Liberal, Peter Fonseca]

Please, members.

[Philip Lawrence, Conservative, Northumberland—Peterborough South, ON]

Mr. Chair, she's talking over me. It's hurting the interpreters.

[Sophie Chatel, Liberal, Pontiac, QC]

Yes, because it's not a point of order.

[The Chair, Liberal, Peter Fonseca]

MP Chatel, please.

Thank you.

I will now call clauses 353 through to 369.

[Yvan Baker, Liberal, Etobicoke Centre, ON]

I would like recorded votes.

(Clauses 353 to 369 agreed to: yeas 7; nays 4)

[The Chair, Liberal, Peter Fonseca]

Shall clause 370 carry?

[Philip Lawrence, Conservative, Northumberland—Peterborough South, ON]

I have a point of order, Mr. Chair.

[The Chair, Liberal, Peter Fonseca]

We have Mr. Lawrence on a point of order.

[Philip Lawrence, Conservative, Northumberland—Peterborough South, ON]

How is the thumbs-down or thumbs-up recorded in the committee Hansard on our vote? Is it just put down as a “no” or a “yes” vote?
