I am now prepared to rule on a point of order raised by the Parliamentary Secretary for Official Languages regarding language used by the member for Bas-Richelieu—Nicolet—Bécancour during question period yesterday. Even though the member for Bas-Richelieu—Nicolet—Bécancour withdrew one expression in response to the point of order yesterday, he used another one in its place.
I checked our precedents and found that both the first and the second expression are unparliamentary. Given the member's experience in this House, I appeal to his sense of decorum and call on him to withdraw that second expression. I invite him to withdraw the word in question now.
