Government Business No. 10—Broadcasting Act  Madam Speaker, my apologies. Thank you for your gracious correction. I would not want the government to tell me, a government that has been involved in so many terrible wrongs, which have recently been in the news, and Canadians what we can and cannot see. That is something that happens in the Soviet Union.

Government Business No. 10—Broadcasting Act  Madam Speaker, that gives me a great opportunity to explain to the minister that he can check out Michael Geist's website if he has not figured this out already. The offending sections are 9(1), 10(1) and the removal of section 4.1, which was originally put in there to protect social media and was taken out.

Government Business No. 10—Broadcasting Act  Madam Speaker, it is an absolute privilege to rise in debate today.

Fight Against Tax Evasion  Madam Speaker, it is an honour to rise today to speak to this important issue and to this motion. This is part of a larger discussion that needs to happen, and I am very pleased to be talking about it today.

Broadcasting Act  Madam Speaker, I wanted to raise a point on behalf of the Green Party. Oftentimes they do not get the opportunity to speak. They have been polite and quiet while waiting.
