I hesitate to interrupt the hon. member simply to ask him to co-operate. I am aware that the issue raised by the Hon. Minister of Justice, to which both opposition parties have responded, is of great if not paramount importance for all members of this Parliament.
However, I must ask the hon. member to co-operate and stick to his motion so the debate remains relevant. With all due respect, despite its importance, the other issue should not be dealt with on this opposition day but wait for another opportunity here in this democratic House.
So I simply ask you to please co-operate and keep to today's motion put forward by the hon. member for Saint-Hyacinthe-Bagot.
