Mr. Speaker, I apologize to the member right now, because I feel like my speech is interrupting his heckling, but I will just proceed as best I can.
When I illustrated my point about the money, it was as if the member was not winning the game, so he took his ball and did not go home but sat on the sidelines and pouted a bit and decided not to send the Senate any money.
What happens to the support staff? What happens to the people who are unionized support staff, who would not get paid, thanks to this motion? This motion would deny good, hard-working, unionized employees their salaries. God forbid that this happens, but that is exactly what this would do.
I would say this to the hon. member. Let us have a mature conversation about the Senate and how we can change it, based on the rules that were just handed to it.
