Mr. Chair, I'll be as succinct as my good colleagues across the way have been. I will expect the same courtesy from the chair as you have shown to members of your own party.
Ms. Lapointe suggested that I had used unparliamentary language. I take that accusation very seriously, and I would ask her to cite what language I used that was allegedly unparliamentary. That is important to me and it's something that Ms. Lapointe should respond to.
As for the implication that I do not think the chair of this committee is doing a good job in discharging his function, I will happily assent to the fact that I do not think the chair of this committee is fulfilling the functions of his office in a remotely proper way in accordance with the rules.
