I am afraid the motion is carried and that is that. I put the question and the normal practice is that if a member wishes to debate the member stands up and says “debate”, but nobody did. I know the hon. member had indicated an interest but I thought he had given up because he had made all his comments before. I am sorry. I think we will have to move to orders of the day.
