Esther Bryan May 18th, 2000
Mr. Speaker, artist Esther Bryan, a resident of my riding of Stormont—Dundas—Charlottenburgh, with the help of hundreds of volunteers and participants from across Canada, is bringing to life an immense textile artwork entitled, “Invitation”, a reflection of Canada's cultural fabric and history.
All ethnocultural groups, Inuit and first nations communities within Canada are each contributing a handmade textile block of traditional materials and designs symbolizing their unique contributions to our Canadian identity. This quilt of belonging is a work in progress. Many completed blocks will be on display at five o'clock this afternoon in the Centre Block Hall of Honour.
I invite all members of parliament to join the Canadian Ethnocultural Council and the Board of the Invitation Quilt to participate in the national launch of this project.
A special congratulations to artist Esther Bryan for her vision and commitment to this very special millennium project.
Competition Act May 16th, 2000
Madam Speaker, I would ask the indulgence of the House for a moment on a point of order. Earlier today the House unanimously adopted a deferral of the private member's bill, of course with the approval of the member for Lambton—Kent—Middlesex.
With the day having run slightly longer than anticipated, I have not had time, respectfully to all my colleagues on both sides of the House, to do the normal negotiations. I submit, in the spirit of co-operation, especially since it is Private Members' Business, I would ask for the unanimous consent of the House that the vote be deemed requested and deferred, so that members who have other obligations will have the ability to do so with the agreement of the House.
