A point of order, Mr. Chair.
I want to go back to your ruling, and I want to say this because you ruled before any chance was given to either Mr. Christopherson, in his case, or in my case to actually discuss our amendment. You ruled right away, and that is not, in my opinion, within your mandate to do so.
It is within your mandate to rule on a point of order, but to come out and immediately declare your position and for it not to be debatable is not an acceptable position for the chair.
