Child Health Protection Act  Mr. Speaker, I have been listening intently, and this is a conversation that constituents in the riding of Waterloo often have.

Privilege  Mr. Speaker, I do not want to take away from the opposition whip's time, but I want to acknowledge, as the member just stated, that the member for Kingston and the Islands did apologize. In this place, we have a tradition where we take members at their word and—
