I would like to thank the hon. member for Kingston and the Islands for his comments. In fact, I have the text of Standing Order 18, from Standing Annotated Orders right here, because I want to be vigilant at all times.
However, I must admit I was taking some notes in the chair, so I cannot comment on what was said by the hon. member for Joliette, who nevertheless caused the hon. member on the government side to raise his point of order.
I do want to make it clear to hon. members that I will remain in the House until the end of the debate. And I want to thank the hon. member for his remarks, because members must behave in a parliamentary fashion, as has always been the tradition in this House, and I am confident that we will continue to do so.
Resuming debate.
