Mr. Speaker, on a point of order. I can see that some of my colleagues believe that my words were unacceptable and, after due consideration, I think that some hon. members may have found what I said to be insulting. Therefore, I want to withdraw the words "traitor", "treason" and "betrayal", and I do so unequivocally.
