I appreciate the hon. parliamentary secretary's intervention.
Given the rules of the House, the hon. member is able to rise in the House and present his question of privilege. The hon. member did go through the proper process to notify me that he would be bringing this discussion to the floor. The regulations do not stipulate how long a member can speak, but they do stipulate that it should be a brief presentation, so I want to remind the hon. member for Leeds—Grenville—Thousand Islands and Rideau Lakes of that.
I will not ask him how long he is going to speak. I will allow him to continue with his deliberation.
The hon. member for Leeds—Grenville—Thousand Islands and Rideau Lakes.
