Debates of March 26th, 2003

Assisted Human Reproduction Act

[The Speaker]

I declare Motion No. 4 lost. The next question is on Motion No. 5.

[Marlene Catterall, Liberal, Ottawa West—Nepean, ON]

Mr. Speaker, on a point of order, I believe you would find consent that those who voted on the previous motion be recorded as voting on the motion now before the House, with the Liberal members voting no.

[The Speaker]

Is there unanimous consent to proceed in this way?

[Some hon. members]

Agreed.

[Some hon. members]

No.

(The House divided on Motion No. 5, which was negatived on the following division:)

[The Speaker]

I declare Motion No. 5 lost.

[Paul Szabo, Liberal, Mississauga South, ON]

Mr. Speaker, I ask for the unanimous consent of the House to apply the vote just taken on report stage Motion No. 5 to report stage Motion No. 7.

[The Speaker]

Is there unanimous consent to apply the vote on Motion No. 5 to Motion No. 7.

[Some hon. members]

Agreed.

[Some hon. members]

No.

The next question is on Motion No. 7.

[Marlene Catterall, Liberal, Ottawa West—Nepean, ON]

Mr. Speaker, before we proceed with the vote on Motion No. 7, and if you would please be patient, there may be people who wish to change their vote from the first vote on Motion No. 4.

However, there have been discussions and therefore I am asking for the consent of the House that the vote on Motion No. 4 in the name of the hon. member for Saskatoon—Wanuskewin be applied to Motions Nos. 9, 82, 83, 85, 86 and 89.

[The Speaker]

I suggest we proceed with the vote on Motion No. 7 since it is unaffected and it is the next one.

(The House divided on Motion No. 7, which was negatived on the following division:)

[The Speaker]

I declare Motion No. 7 lost.

[Dale Johnston, Canadian Alliance, Wetaskiwin, AB]

Mr. Speaker, we have 40-some votes and a whole bunch of them under that member's name. I am wondering if we are going to stand here and vote for every group. I was under the impression that we had an agreement that we would apply some of these votes or a good portion of them.

[Paul Szabo, Liberal, Mississauga South, ON]

Mr. Speaker, it is my intent to apply the vote just taken to 40 other motions. There are, however, two additional motions that other members in the opposition did want to speak on, so I cannot do the entire 40 in one shot, but I would like to seek unanimous consent of the House to apply the vote just taken to report stage Motions Nos. 9, 10, 55, 75, 77 and 80, all my motions.

[The Speaker]

Is there unanimous consent to apply the vote just taken to Motions Nos. 9, 10, 55, 75, 77 and 80?

[Some hon. members]

Agreed.

[Some hon. members]

No.

[Michel Guimond, Bloc, Beauport—Montmorency—Côte-De- Beaupré—Île-D'Orléans, QC]

Mr. Speaker, we would have some problems with applying the vote just taken to Motion No. 75, because we will be voting differently than we did on Motion No. 7.

As for Motion No. 9—

[The Speaker]

Perhaps the Chair can be of assistance. The question before the House is on Motion No. 9.

Is there unanimous consent to apply the vote just taken on Motion No. 7 to Motion No. 9?

[Some hon. members]

Agreed.

(The House divided on Motion No. 9, which was negatived on the following division:)

[The Speaker]

I declare Motion No. 9 lost.

The next question is on Motion No. 10. Is there unanimous consent of the House to apply the vote just taken on Motion No. 7 to Motion No. 10?

[Some hon. members]

Agreed.

[Michel Guimond, Bloc, Beauport—Montmorency—Côte-De- Beaupré—Île-D'Orléans, QC]

Mr. Speaker, the members of the Bloc Quebecois will be voting in favour of Motion No. 10.

So, we are not voting as we did on Motion No. 9.

[The Speaker]

Is there unanimous consent to apply the vote on Motion No. 9 with the Bloc members voting yes and all others remaining the same?
