Not that I would definitely want to play tit-for-tat, but I do recall a certain supply day motion that the Liberal Party had.... Just kidding, just kidding.

Mr. Byrne, in all fairness, I will definitely speak to my leader on that, and there are no guarantees because there are 36 of us—we have 182 different subjects of concern—but I will definitely raise it with the party.

I appreciate that, Mr. Stoffer.
To your point of not going tit-for-tat, I was asking for discussion on the amended motion. Do you have something to add on the amended motion, Mr. Byrne?

Yes, I do, thank you.
The amended motion would not even be read right now if my party's supply day motion had been supported by the other parties, because we'd be into an election right now and there would be no ratification of the revised NAFO treaty.

So therein my party's supply day motion, for the record, was in very specific contradiction to the revised NAFO convention because it would have collapsed the government, and there would be no ratification of the revised convention. Anyway, not to be tit-for-tat, Peter, but there you go.

Thank you very much.
There being no further discussion on the amended motion, I call the question on the amended motion at this time, as I read previously.
(Motion as amended agreed to)
