Mr. Speaker, I would like to raise a procedural point with respect to my statement.
As far as I am concerned the matter regarding the member for Okanagan Centre is settled. I took particular care in my statement- and I know members of the Reform Party did not like it-to refer to the Reform Party of Canada and not to the individual member.
I have been in the House for many years and the NDP has been attacked repeatedly. It has always been in order to criticize political parties. In my opinion I should not have been ruled out of order.
