It goes without saying that different arguments are made during debate. Yes, we ask members not to impute motives to other members, but this is the sort of thing that we often hear in the House, whether it is when one person approaches another or when a person is sitting next to someone.
I hope that I correctly understood what the hon. member was saying, but, yes, from time to time, there are messages passed in the House to clarify certain things or to give advice during debate. We see that regularly.
I will give the floor back to the hon. member, but this is beginning to be a point of debate. After he stands, I would ask the member to wait for the light to come on before he begins speaking. If his microphone is not on, then I cannot hear him when he starts to speak.
The hon. member for LaSalle–Émard–Verdun.
