It is my duty to inform hon. members that an amendment to an opposition motion may be moved only with the consent of the sponsor of the motion. If the sponsor is not present, the House leader, the deputy House leader, the whip or the deputy whip of the sponsor's party may give or refuse consent on the sponsor's behalf.
As I understand it, there is no consent.
Therefore, pursuant to Standing Order 85, the amendment cannot be moved at this time.
The hon. member for Lac-Saint-Louis.
