Madam Speaker, I would like to echo the words of my colleague from Chilliwack—Hope and thank everybody who has been involved in this marathon session. The support staff do an extraordinary job, as do the table officers and pages. Therefore, on behalf of the NDP, we would like to thank everyone who was involved in doing all this work and supporting us.
I love the enthusiasm of my B.C. colleague from Cariboo—Prince George, but the reality is that he did not hear the question and should not have voted. This has been a bone of contention all day, and I have to be consistent. We should all be consistent. He did not hear the question, so his vote should not be counted. I am sure he will stand and address that in just a moment.
I thank you, Madam Speaker, and the other Speakers for your work in keeping us on a relatively straight path as we have gone through the last 30 hours.
