Aboriginal Affairs  Mr. Speaker, this is a bit unusual as a question. The House leader of the hon. member's party and her own backbench MP filibustered the bill and now she is asking us whether we will time allocate to undo the filibustering of her colleague and then whether we will allow a free

An Act to amend the Criminal Code (cruelty to animals and firearms) and the Firearms Act   in the House of Commons, which ought to be the democratic counterbalance to the other place, we are again having imposed upon us a time allocation motion, thereby depriving members of the privileges they ought to be entitled to as elected representatives within a representative democracy.

An Act to amend the Criminal Code (cruelty to animals and firearms) and the Firearms Act  Madam Speaker, while members are trying to have a democratic debate in the House, how ironic that the Parliamentary Secretary to the Solicitor General would deny me the right to say not only what I think of that other place, but also what I think of the time allocation motion

An Act to amend the Criminal Code (cruelty to animals and firearms) and the Firearms Act   invoked time allocation and many of us will not have the opportunity to represent our constituents with a 20 minute or even a 10 minute speech on the legislation before us today, Bill C-10. I could not agree more with my Bloc colleague when he talked about the problems with the Senate

An Act to amend the Criminal Code (cruelty to animals and firearms) and the Firearms Act   majority pass a time allocation motion for the consideration of this bill. Once again, the rights of members of Parliament are being violated. The Liberal government should have put the finishing touches to its bill before introducing it. The difficulty it is having getting it passed

An Act to amend the Criminal Code (cruelty to animals and firearms) and the Firearms Act  Madam Speaker, I want to devote a couple of minutes to comments and a question regarding the use of time allocation yet again on this very important issue of so-called gun control or firearms registration. The reality is that I and many of my colleagues would have liked

An Act to Amend the Criminal Code (cruelty to animals and firearms) and the Firearms Act  I wish to inform the House that because of the proceedings on the time allocation motion, government orders will be extended by 30 minutes.

Privilege   for the Firearms Act. The House of Commons voted on Bill C-68, An Act respecting firearms and other weapons, on five occasions: second reading, report stage, third reading and two time allocation motions. On June 7, 1995, the Standing Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs reported Bill C-68

Points of Order  -over. Would the House leader for the governing party tell us if he plans to introduce time allocation on that bill?

Points of Order  Mr. Speaker, I am not sure whether that is a regular business statement question, but notice of time allocation has been confirmed. Anyone who reads the Order Paper could take note of that. I am sure the hon. member is aware of it. I can confirm that this notice had been served

Business of the House   withdrawn. Will it be on the agenda next Tuesday, and will he use his time allocation motion so that it is completed on that day?

Points of Order  . In consequence, the hon. member argued that the notice given by the government to time allocate the motion was invalid since Standing Order 78 can only be used to curtail debate on motions related to the stages of bills and not on a government motion. At the time this point of order

An Act to amend the Criminal Code (cruelty to animals and firearms) and the Firearms Act   on Bill C-68: at second reading, at report state, third reading and on two time allocation motions. The Standing Committee on Justice spent weeks studying and reporting to Bill C-68, many of which were rejected by the justice department, but a change to the definition of federal

An Act to amend the Criminal Code (cruelty to animals and firearms) and the Firearms Act   a time allocation motion could be moved and applied to the bill. If it is not, then it is a regular government motion and the only way to bring a close to it, if the government chooses to do something to close it, is to use closure, Standing Order 57, as has been pointed out

An Act to amend the Criminal Code (cruelty to animals and firearms) and the Firearms Act   not enabled either myself or my predecessors from moving a motion under Standing Order 78. If it had been considered strictly a motion, I would have had to use Standing Order 57. In other words, I would not have been able to use time allocation. I would have been obliged to use closure
