Debates of Dec. 14th, 1994

Department Of Canadian Heritage Act

[The Deputy Speaker]

It is virtually Christmas Eve. I am sorry we are reduced to this. We are obliged to call each other hon. members every time we refer to each other. Because that particular word is used so often in this House, I would invite the hon. member for Winnipeg North to reflect on what the effects of his comments here this afternoon have amounted to.

[Rey D. Pagtakhan, Liberal, Winnipeg North, MB]

Mr. Speaker, I acknowledge that the member for Calgary Southeast is honourable.

[The Deputy Speaker]

Does the hon. House leader of the Reform Party have any further intervention?

[Elwin Hermanson, Reform, Kindersley—Lloydminster, SK]

Mr. Speaker, I thank the member for Winnipeg North for clarifying that for us. I appreciate it.

[The Deputy Speaker]

Is the House ready for the question?

[Some hon. members]

Question.

[The Deputy Speaker]

The question is on Motion No. 8.

All those in favour of the notion will please say yea.

[Some hon. members]

Yea.

[The Deputy Speaker]

All those opposed will please day nay.

[Some hon. members]

Nay.

[The Deputy Speaker]

In my opinion the nays have it.

[The Deputy Speaker]

Pursuant to Standing Order 76(1) a recorded division on the motion stands deferred. The recorded division will also apply to Motion No. 10.

Before proposing group No. 2, I must remind you that: Motions Nos. 11, 12, and 13 will be grouped for debate and voted on as follows: Motion No. 11 will be voted on separately. An affirmative vote on Motion No. 12 obviates the necessity of a question on Motion No. 13. A negative vote on Motion No. 12 necessitates the question being put on Motion No. 13.

[Suzanne Tremblay, Bloc, Rimouski—Témiscouata, QC]

moved:

Motion No. 11

That Bill C-53 be amended by deleting Clause 6.

[Jan Brown, Reform, Calgary Southeast, AB]

moved:

Motion No. 12

That Bill C-53, in Clause 7, be amended by deleting lines 11 to 13, on page 3.

[Suzanne Tremblay, Bloc, Rimouski—Témiscouata, QC]

moved:

Motion No. 13

That Bill C-53 be amended by deleting Clause 7.
