Broadcasting Act  Call in the members.

Broadcasting Act  I thank hon. members for their interventions. I did not hear the minister's words in this case as I was taken aside for a moment on an administrative matter. For general purposes, references to lying is always a tricky area. Generally, if it is not applied to an individual member

Criminal Code  Does the hon. member for Lac-Saint-Jean wish to continue his speech?

Criminal Code  I thank the hon. member for Kingston and the Islands and the hon. member for Lac‑Saint‑Jean. The question of relevance certainly applies to all debates in the House. At the same time, however, there are always members who take the liberty of making a few comments on other matter

Criminal Code  I think we heard this earlier today. When yeas and nays are provided in the House, they are general in nature and not necessarily assigned to individual members. I am going to go back to the hon. member for Sherwood Park—Fort Saskatchewan to finish up his remarks. He has 13 minu

Criminal Code  It seems that we have lost the hon. member for Sherwood Park—Fort Saskatchewan's signal. We are not sure what happened. Given that we are partway into this, we will have to wait to see if he can get reconnected. We will pick it up at a later time under the debate on the motion be

Criminal Code  There is not unanimous consent. Resuming debate. The hon. member for Sherwood Park—Fort Saskatchewan.

Criminal Code  Just one moment, there is a point of order from the hon. member for Kingston and the Islands.

Criminal Code  In the normal context, yes. Given that the motion was proposed in such a way that it would be acted upon at the end of today's debate, the expectation is that it would go the full hour, and members who are scheduled for debate would participate in it. In the normal course, a moti

Privilege  I thank the hon. member for Carleton for his comments on this matter. We will take it under advisement and get back to the House in due course. It now being 1:30 p.m., the House will proceed to the consideration of Private Members' Business as listed on today's Order Paper.

Criminal Code  I thank the hon. parliamentary secretary. On the face of what he has suggested, it does refer back to my earlier comments. Typically, when a member is posing a question of privilege for the consideration of the Chair, it is on them to present their arguments so the Speaker may d

Privilege  I will interrupt the member as he is going into another segment of his presentation. I would ask him if he has an estimate as to how many more minutes he needs to frame these arguments.
