On the same point of order, Mr. McGuinty has very convincingly demonstrated to everybody in the room that the Standing Orders indeed are in the room. He said “I'll show them to you.” Good for him. But he hasn't shown the actual rule that he appears to have just invented saying that if anybody calls for a ruling on anything, interrupts on a point of order to say they want a ruling on something, they can use it, for example, to shut down and terminate debate.
If that were actually allowed in the rules, we wouldn't have debates. Everything would get shut down right away. Once a group within had decided that they had a majority, they would get someone to.... This is completely outside the practices and rules of this place. That's why he hasn't actually cited anything from the Standing Orders to back up his quite frankly preposterous case.
