Immigration Act  Mr. Speaker, I rise on a point of order on the right of reply. I seek the unanimous consent of the House for a two-minute conclusion to this debate.

Immigration Act  Let me be helpful to you. The member for Durham had concluded his remarks. I assured myself that he has closed debate. The hon. member for Calgary Northeast who is the mover of this motion is asking the consent of the House, and I think in the spirit of this 35th session of Parliament that people agree-

Immigration Act  Agreed.

Immigration Act  The House understands fully that the member is closing off debate. No one else will speak to this motion and the question will be put forthwith in two minutes.

Immigration Act  Little boy, what are you going to be when you grow up?

Immigration Act  Once again, it is just common sense that it was done. We accepted it and we are very grateful that we passed the test.

Immigration Act  Mr. Speaker, on a point of order. I think you would find unanimous consent of the House that we go to Statements by Ministers, interrupting whatever business may be in progress at one o'clock this day, as arranged. The proposal is that at one o'clock whatever business is before the House be then interrupted so that we can go Statements by Ministers for the purpose of allowing the Prime Minister to make a statement.

Immigration Act  The House has heard the terms of the motion. Is it the pleasure of the House to adopt the motion?

Immigration Act  Agreed.

Immigration Act  Were you tested?

Immigration Act  If the member will be quiet for a minute I will tell him about the medical requirements. I was required to go the doctor as were my wife and baby. We were given probably one of the most thorough medical examinations we have every gone through with the clear understanding that if there was anything wrong, any medical reason from tuberculosis on down or any kind of heart disease problem, whatever it may be, it would be cause for grounds not to be able to enter this country.

Immigration Act  They should have given you an attitude test.

Immigration Act  Doing nothing, look in the mirror.

Department Of Canadian Heritage Act  The fact of the matter is that, in Quebec, the principle of ethnic diversity must center around the French dimension of our culture which is present in all of our institutions and serves as a basis for Quebec's specificity. Above all however, structures are required to facilitate the integration of immigrants into their host society. So, I intend to support the amendment put forth by my hon. colleague from Rimouski-Témiscouata, asking for the bill to be withdrawn and deferred to the Standing Committee on Canadian Heritage.

Department Of Canadian Heritage Act  These heritage places provide an excellent opportunity to make all Canadians more aware of their history and to make landed immigrants and new Canadians aware of their Canadian heritage, aware of the places, events, activities and people that have made us what we are. In this respect these places can play a vital role promoting citizenship value.
