Peter Schiefke at the Transport, Infrastructure and Communities Committee

Of course you are.

Colleagues, I need to read the following:

Bill C-5 enacts the free trade and labour mobility in Canada act and the building Canada act. The amendment seeks to amend the Greenhouse Gas Pollution Pricing Act. As House of Commons Procedure and Practice, third edition, states on page 770, and we all know this because we've obviously read the book from start to finish:

An amendment to a bill that was referred to a committee after second reading is out of order if it is beyond the scope and principle of the bill.

In the opinion of the chair, the amendment is beyond the scope of the bill. Therefore, I rule the amendment inadmissible.
