Mr. Speaker, I understand that the debate is getting a bit heated on both sides, but I would appreciate it if the hon. member would at least address his comments through the Chair.

[Canadian Wheat Board Act, February 9th, 1998]

Read the bill.

[Canadian Wheat Board Act, February 9th, 1998]

Read the bill.

[Canadian Wheat Board Act, February 9th, 1998]

Mr. Speaker, this hon. member earlier in the debate called the member for the Bloc Quebecois on relevance. Certainly what he is trying to put forward now, if he wants to talk about nonsense, is totally irrelevant to Group No. 4 amendments to Bill C-4.

[Aboriginal Affairs, February 9th, 1998]

Mr. Speaker, the leaks in the department of Indian affairs are becoming so bad that it is starting to resemble the Titanic .

The issue remains how is it that confidential letters to the minister, letters that alleged corruption by Indian chiefs, were leaked to the very chiefs in question. Today we are told that apparently the minister has finally decided to act and has called in the RCMP.

When did she call in members of the RCMP? What exactly are they investigating? Are they investigating the leaks of the department or Bruce Starlight's original allegation?

[Business Of The House, February 9th, 1998]

Mr. Speaker, perhaps a bit of further clarification. The hon. member said consultation had been undertaken. Are we to believe that there is all party agreement on this process and the way in which the debate will be conducted this evening?
