Madam Speaker, I rise on a point of order. There have been the usual consultations among all the parties and you should find unanimous consent for me to make a small wording change to my motion to help clean it up.
I would like to ask for unanimous consent to remove from my Motion No. 239 the following words “show leadership and”. The amended motion would then read:
That, in the opinion of this House, the government should enact a tax on financial transactions in concert with the world community.
I have had the usual consultations with the government across the way, the Bloc Quebecois House leader, the whip of the Reform Party, the whip and the leader of the Conservative Party and also with my own party.
