Mr. Speaker, I humbly submit to you that you may remember I did stand and I was recognized on debate. You indicated that under a point of order it would not be appropriate to move a motion so you moved to debate. When you moved to debate, I stood and you recognized me. I was about to speak on debate. You then took a motion on a point of order which you said was not appropriate when I had done it. Therefore, I would submit to you, Sir, that I am on debate and I have the floor. I respectfully request the floor.
In the House of Commons on November 20th, 1996. See this statement in context.
