Madam Speaker, I rise on a point of order.
Last evening at the moment of the unanimous passing at third reading of Bill C-475, the private member's bill initiated by the member for West Vancouver—Sunshine Coast—Sea to Sky Country, a bill which will significantly help police and our courts protect Canada's young people from the dangers of street drugs and notably methamphetamines, in this wonderful moment for Canada, I inadvertently broke a rule of the House in taking the member's picture as members of the House congratulated him. This was to present to him at a later date, perhaps at his retirement 20 years from now.
The Conservative members, including myself, are so proud to have him as a member of our caucus, a member who dedicated himself to this cause.
I note that in the last six months there have been two important occasions when many members took pictures in the House, first, when the Olympic athletes visited with the flame in December, and more recently when they visited the House again.
As well, I thought the House was adjourned at the time.
Nevertheless, I accept the point of order and I apologize for my inadvertent breach.
