Mr. Speaker, I think that some things were overlooked, but now this is a bit much. Seriously, in the case of the member for Rosemont, he asked for consent and you immediately asked the question.
The member belongs to my party but I do not even know what document he wanted to table. I suppose that the Liberal members who said no do not know either what document they were asked about.
I would like you to give him a chance—

Mr. Speaker, I have here a document from the Bloc Quebecois which offers a new way of defining the relationship between Quebec and Canada.
