Before I resume debate, there has been an oversight by the Chair. In the normal practice of private members' hour on the first round I would see if a member from each of the official parties was seeking the floor and then revert to the normal procedure of government, opposition, and so on. An oversight caused me to fail to recognize a member from the Bloc Quebecois on the first round. I will now go to the hon. member for Drummond and then I will look to the government side, if in fact one should choose to speak. That will bring us approximately to the conclusion of the first hour of debate.
If there should be any questions, feel free to approach me at the chair and I will explain it further with the appropriate time allocations that have been distributed evenly this evening.
