Debates of June 12th, 1995

Firearms Act

[Len Taylor, NDP, The Battlefords—Meadow Lake, SK]

Mr. Speaker, New Democrats will vote yea.

[The Deputy Speaker]

Is that agreed?

[Some hon. members]

Agreed.

(The House divided on Motion No. 54, which was agreed to on the following division:)

[The Deputy Speaker]

I declare Motion No. 54 carried.

[Don Boudria, Liberal, Glengarry—Prescott—Russell, ON]

Mr. Speaker, if you were to seek it I think you would find unanimous consent to apply the same vote to Motion No. 103.

[The Deputy Speaker]

Is that agreed?

[Gilles Duceppe, Bloc, Laurier—Sainte-Marie, QC]

Agreed.

[Jim Silye, Reform, Calgary Centre, AB]

The same could be done on Motion No. 220 if we are seeking unanimous consent and for Motion No. 75.

[The Deputy Speaker]

We are only dealing with Motion No. 103 at the moment.

[Jim Silye, Reform, Calgary Centre, AB]

Reform Party members vote no except for those members who wish to vote otherwise. The member for Swift Current may wish-

[The Deputy Speaker]

Would the Reform Party members who wish to vote otherwise please indicate so now.

[Len Taylor, NDP, The Battlefords—Meadow Lake, SK]

We vote in favour, Mr. Speaker.

[The Deputy Speaker]

I declare Motion No. 103 carried.

Is there unanimous consent to apply those votes as indicated?

[Some hon. members]

Agreed.

[The Deputy Speaker]

Therefore Motions Nos. 220 and 75 are agreed to.

[The Deputy Speaker]

The next question is on Motion No. 7. A vote on this motion also applies to Motions Nos. 133, 173, 181, 198 and 222. An affirmative vote on Motion No. 7 obviates the necessity of the question being put on Motions Nos. 8, 9, 11, 12, 137, 144, 163, 114, 182, 184, 192, 197, 199, 201 and 223.

A negative vote on Motion No. 7 necessitates the question being put on Motions Nos. 8, 174, 184, 197 and 223.

[Don Boudria, Liberal, Glengarry—Prescott—Russell, ON]

Mr. Speaker, I would like to seek unanimous consent that the members who just voted on the previous motion be recorded as having voted on the motion now before the House with Liberal members voting against this particular motion.

[Gilles Duceppe, Bloc, Laurier—Sainte-Marie, QC]

The members of the Bloc Quebecois support this motion.

[Jim Silye, Reform, Calgary Centre, AB]

Mr. Speaker, Reform Party members are against this motion and vote no except for those members who wish to vote otherwise.

[Len Taylor, NDP, The Battlefords—Meadow Lake, SK]

Mr. Speaker, New Democrats present vote yea unless otherwise noted.

[Svend Robinson, NDP, Burnaby—Kingsway, BC]

Mr. Speaker, I vote nay.

(The House divided on Motion No. 7, which was negatived on the following division:)

[The Deputy Speaker]

I declare Motion No. 7 rejected. Consequently Motions Nos. 133, 173, 181, 198 and 222 are negatived.

[Don Boudria, Liberal, Glengarry—Prescott—Russell, ON]

Mr. Speaker, I wonder if you could seek unanimous consent that the same result apply to report stage Motions Nos. 200, 148, 149 and 150.

[The Deputy Speaker]

Is there unanimous consent?

[Some hon. members]

Agreed.
