Mr. Speaker, during question period, while the leader of His Majesty's loyal opposition was posing a question to the Prime Minister, the member for Edmonton Griesbach used decidedly unparliamentary language. It was a phrase that you have, in the past, ruled as unacceptable and called on members to apologize for and withdraw, or they would not be recognized.
I appreciate it is difficult for you to be able to hear that from your vantage point in the chamber, Mr. Speaker, but I did observe the proceedings verification officer turn and then repeat the phrase, word for word, that was used by the member for Edmonton Griesbach.
I just ask for you to consult with Hansard and, should you find that they did capture this phrase that is unparliamentary and it is attributed to the member, that the appropriate remedy be taken.
