Each member speaking will be allotted 10 minutes. No time will be allotted for questions and comments.
The order also prescribes that tonight's debate will be interrupted after three hours or when no member rises to speak.
We will begin with the hon. member for West Vancouver—Sunshine Coast—Sea to Sky Country.
