Business of Supply  I am having a hard time hearing the question. I want to remind the members that when the Speaker stands, normally it is quiet. I want to remind everyone that I am trying to hear the question and I cannot because of the heckling going back and forth. The hon. parliamentary secretary.

Business of Supply  Before resuming debate, and we went through this earlier but I realize there are a few members who have come in as the rotation goes through. We went through the etiquette of not shouting while someone is answering or asking a question in the House. I just want to remind the hon. members to show respect and keep decorum in the House.

Business of Supply  Questions and comments. I just want to remind the hon. members that parliamentary language is something we try to promote as much as possible in the House. One of the words used was kind of borderline, but let us not push the envelope. The hon. member for Abitibi—Témiscamingue.

Business of Supply  We have a point of order. The hon. member for Abitibi—Témiscamingue.

Business of Supply  I thank the hon. member for her comments. That was not really a point of order, but it certainly is relevant. I want to remind hon. members that when someone is speaking in the House, there are people who are interested in hearing he or she, not their comments. I do not mean everyone.

Business of Supply  I am sure the hon. member for Edmonton Griesbach does not want my opinion. I will defer to the parliamentary secretary. When hon. members ask questions, they should ask through the Chair, not to the Chair. The hon. parliamentary secretary.

Business of Supply  Before we continue, I want to remind the members that when referring to another member, they must use the name of the individual's riding or their title. The hon. member for Louis-Saint-Laurent.

Accessible Canada Act  It is my duty pursuant to Standing Order 38 to inform the House that the questions to be raised tonight at the time of adjournment are as follows: the hon. member for Saint-Hyacinthe—Bagot, Employment Insurance; the hon. member for North Island—Powell River, Health.

Accessible Canada Act  Before we go on for an answer, I want to remind hon. members that normally we ask the question not directly to the person but through the chair. I am sure the hon. member did not want my opinion. I will let the hon. member for Saint-Laurent answer.

Accessible Canada Act  It is an honour to be sitting in the chair for the closing of this chapter of Canadian parliamentary history. I wish the hon. member all the best. Resuming debate, the hon. member for Calgary Centre.

Accessible Canada Act  Before going to questions and comments, I want to congratulate the hon. member for York—Simcoe. I want to fill him in that, as an occupant of the chair, there are 337 other members in the House that one looks to. There are often people who get up on a point of order or question of privilege, and we know that they have some idea of what they want to say.

Firearms Act  The hon. member for Surrey Centre will have five minutes and 15 seconds to continue his speech when we resume debate.

Firearms Act  The hon. member for Surrey Centre will have seven minutes, and then we will interrupt. He will be able to continue once we resume debate. The hon. member for Surrey Centre.

Firearms Act  Before resuming debate, I just want to remind the hon. members that we cannot do indirectly what we cannot do directly in the chamber when we are referring to something. I know there are slip-ups, but because there are more discussions and speeches coming up, I just want to remind everyone so that members can apply it their remarks.

Firearms Act  I would remind hon. members that when referring to someone in the chamber, we refer to them by their riding or by their position. I know that after a summer off, things get forgotten. Therefore, I would remind everyone that, when giving their speech, they should refer to a member by their position or riding and not at all by their name.
