Privilege  The hon. member could perhaps have linked the relevance of his comment to the speech the hon. member just made. The hon. parliamentary secretary has the floor.

Privilege  Is the House ready for the question?

Privilege  The question is on the motion. If a member participating in person wishes that the motion, as amended, be adopted or adopted on division, or if a member of a recognized party participating in person wishes to request a recorded division, I invite them to rise and indicate it to

Privilege  Order. There is a lot of noise in the courtyard. The hon. member, please continue.

Privilege  I would just remind members that we do not try to infer positions of other members.

Privilege  I would remind hon. members that this is not a conversation, and the hon. member has the floor and is making a speech. This is not a conversation.

Privilege  I have to interrupt the hon. member. The hon. member for Red Deer—Lacombe is rising on a point of order.

Privilege  I think he is referring to the hon. member's previous speech, but I will try to be more attentive to potential inferences. The hon. member for Kingston and the Islands.

Privilege  I just want to make sure we do not refer to this chair as a throne. It is a chair, but certainly not a throne. The hon. member for Calgary Rocky Ridge.

Privilege  In the interest of giving the same time for questions as answers, I have to give someone else a question. The hon. member for Kitchener Centre.

Privilege  We will leave it at that. The time is up. Is the House ready for the question?

Privilege  The question is as follows. May I dispense?

Privilege  [Chair read text of motion to House] If a member participating in person wishes that the amendment be carried or carried on division, or if a member of a recognized party participating in person wishes to request a recorded division, I would invite them to rise and indicate it

Privilege  Pursuant to Standing Order 45, the division stands deferred until Wednesday, December 6, at the expiry of the time provided for Oral Questions.

Privilege  I interrupt the hon. member because it is true. The hon. member for Saskatoon—University, who is a former speaker himself, should know better than to keep interrupting members who are speaking. The hon. member for Kingston and the Islands.
