Debates of Feb. 2nd, 1999

Finance

[Ken Epp, Reform, Elk Island, AB]

Mr. Speaker, this is purely a comment. This sounds like Bryan Williams. It is midnight here. Back in Alberta it is only 10 o'clock and in B.C. it is 9 o'clock. However, I think it is very appropriate for us to say a special thanks to the pages, to the staff who have helped here, the officers of the clerk, Mr. Speaker, certainly the Liberal representation here today and the interpreters without whom we would be lost. I just want to say thank you very much to everyone for doing that.

[The Deputy Speaker]

I know all hon. members are very pleased the debate has come to an end. In spite of the enjoyment we have all had in the proceedings this evening, I know we are all looking forward to the real event. The debate will follow on that no doubt shortly.

It being 11.55 p.m, the time provided for debate is over. Pursuant to order made Monday, February 1, 1999, this House stands adjourned until 2 p.m. tomorrow, pursuant to Standing Order 24(1).

(The House adjourned at 11.57 p.m.)
