I understand the intervention from the hon. member for Elk Island, but as a general practice we try to avoid situations where the mover of an amendment is actually also included or involved in the subamendment on the same matter. For that reason the Chair took the liberty, respectfully, to select another member in the Chamber from the same party who I know is equally concerned and interested in the subject matter, because no other member spends more time in the House than possibly the Chair occupants and the hon. member for Elk Island.
We will now proceed to questions and comments.
