During the committee of whole process he said that he did not have an opportunity to direct questions to the officials or to the hon. government House leader. Anybody who has been watching the debate tonight at home and anybody who has been participating in the Chamber knows that is rubbish, as one of my colleagues said. The hon. member used the majority of that time.</p>\n<p>We had one hour in committee of the whole during which opposition members and members of the government could ask questions pertaining to the bill of the minister responsible, in this case the government House leader, and the officials he has asked to be present. The hon. member used 20 minutes or 25 minutes of that time to rant and rail against the Canadian Alliance. Anybody watching the debate saw that. He had lots of time to put questions to the officials or to the government House leader, yet he chose not to do so. That is the first fallacy in what he stated.</p>",
