I wasn't suggesting, Mr. Chairman, through you, that they were considered a recognized party in the House. All I wanted to point out was that they had moved from a caucus into this undefined status. They did get questions, and the questions were left to the discretion of the Speaker, that is to say, given the way Mr. Godin is accurately describing it, as I recall, they were using slots that had originally been allotted to the Progressive Conservatives, who decided to share with them, if I remember correctly. I wasn't suggesting that they were recognized in the House in any way. It's just that they were a collective as opposed to a sole individual.
