I don't know if anybody else feels like we're in the twilight zone or something.
Mr. Chairman, I do feel you're contradicting yourself in terms of what you said earlier. When we first started on this point, Mr. Lake tried to introduce his motion. Mr. Lessard then tried to introduce his motion to continue the business. My recollection is that you clearly said that could not be done until clause 1 was completed, and then you would entertain another motion. You did not say that in the middle of the debate on clause 1, when we had disposed of one amendment and were about to begin another amendment, that you could then introduce a completely different motion. You said that at the conclusion of clause 1 and before we got to clause 2, another motion would be permissible.
I do believe you've contradicted yourself, because we're still in the middle of clause 1. We haven't yet voted on it. Based on what you said earlier to us, I do believe that only when we have voted on it can you then entertain whoever gets to the mike first—either Mr. Lake or Monsieur Lessard—with some other kind of motion.
But we're still on clause 1. You should not be allowing some motion that interrupts the flow of us continuing with clause 1. I feel you've contradicted yourself.
