Mr. Speaker, I too would like to rise on a point of order regarding question period yesterday afternoon. I asked the Prime Minister a question about an appointment of a lawyer.
I would like to draw your attention to Beauchesne's 6th edition, citation 489 which states that the phrase "has not got the guts" is unparliamentary. That comes from Debates of May 27, 1959, page 4078.
I would like to draw your attention to Hansard of yesterday, page 5898 where the Prime Minister responded to me with the exact words ``if the member had any guts she would try to prove that the person is not competent''.
I think it is fairly clear that statement is out of order and I would like to ask that the Prime Minister either withdraw those comments or apologize.
