Order, please. The time for the answer has come to a close.
I would just remind the hon. member to address his remarks through the chair and not directly at other members.
I would remind all members that we are at second reading on a bill regarding Senate reform. The Standing Orders regarding relevance do apply. While members may wander into other areas as they make their points, we should try to keep our questions, comments, and speeches directly on the subject-matter of the bill.
There is enough time for a very brief question or comment, perhaps 30 seconds. The hon. member for Ottawa Centre.
