I have one last question. I have less than a minute left to ask and get your answers.
Section 18 of the BNA Act, 1867, which you cited, speaks to the privileges, immunities, and powers held by the Parliament of Canada, the Senate and the House of Commons of Canada, and links them to the powers that existed in the British Parliament circa 1867, at the time of its passage. You dealt with how that relates to the passing of laws, acts of Parliament, that would govern prorogation. The suggestion came up earlier with our first witness that you could perhaps use Standing Orders to deny the government the right to introduce certain kinds of legislation if, in the minds of Parliament, it had improperly used prorogation prior to the return of the House.
It seems to me that trying to limit the government's ability to introduce legislation in the House would go beyond the powers that had existed in the British Parliament circa 1867 by means of a Standing Order. They could not have done that then, and I think, therefore, you couldn't do that now. But I'd be interested in seeing if you agree with that assessment.
