Garnett Genuis Conservative Sherwood Park—Fort Saskatchewan, AB

Yes.

On a point of order, Chair, I'm just trying to understand which motion we're operating under, because the section of the motion I read out makes no reference to your reading or not reading the question. You've determined that you're not to read the question, which is very odd to me, but I just want to make sure I'm using the correct motion.

Julie Dzerowicz Liberal Davenport, ON

That's debate, Mr. Chair—
