Committees of the House  I have to give other members the opportunity to ask questions. The hon. member for Lac-Saint-Jean.

Committees of the House  The hon. parliamentary secretary knows he may not have seen the person, but they could have been participating virtually, as is allowed by this House. I would refrain from making such references.

Committees of the House  There is a point of order from the hon. member for Timmins—James Bay.

Committees of the House  That is debate; it is not a point of order. The hon. parliamentary secretary has the floor.

Committees of the House  The hon. member for Calgary Rocky Ridge is rising on a point of order, on relevance, I am sure.

Committees of the House  A lot of latitude has been given, yes. I would like to ask the parliamentary secretary to bring it to the relevance of the report.

Committees of the House  He was about to start when he was interrupted. I am going to give him another chance.

Committees of the House  The hon. member for Cumberland—Colchester is rising on a point of order.

Committees of the House  We are talking about the two reports.

Committees of the House  Yes, it is. The hon. member—

Committees of the House  Absolutely, it is admissible. It is part of the rules. The hon. parliamentary secretary was referring to the two reports that caused confusion with the Chair, not with the House. The hon. parliamentary secretary is rising on the same point of order.

Committees of the House  We are not going to debate that any longer. The hon. parliamentary secretary has the floor.

Committees of the House  I would remind the hon. member to avoid such suggestions, because we do not want to assume reasons. The hon. member for Calgary Centre.

Committees of the House  We cannot reference the presence or absence of members in the House, and the parliamentary secretary knows that.

Committees of the House  This implies they were absent from the chamber. We cannot project indirectly what we cannot do directly. I ask the hon. member to try not to incite disruption.
