Mr. Speaker, I rise on a point of order. My understanding of the rules is that once the motion is put, a debate should ensue.
It seems to me the government has mismanaged the agenda to the point where it is trying to get unanimous consent to run through this House on the last day of sitting a number of measures for which it requires consent. At the very least, the government could grant us the courtesy of advising members of the opposition what these motions are all about.
I have no difficulty giving consent to having these motions carry. However, at the very least I would like to see what I am voting on in advance.
