I was standing in my place and I was asking if this motion was debatable. I would say, from the reading of the Standing Orders, that this motion is debatable and the question be put at the end of the hour of debate.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"692101\" data-originallang=\"en\"> I would ask for the Speaker, with obviously the aid of our knowledgeable clerks, to rule on whether or not we are indeed debating for one hour before this question is put to the House.</p>",

J'\u00e9tais debout \u00e0 ma place et je demandais si cette motion pouvait \u00eatre d\u00e9battue. Je dirais que, d'apr\u00e8s le libell\u00e9 du R\u00e8glement, cette motion peut \u00eatre d\u00e9battue et la question est mise aux voix \u00e0 la fin d'une heure de d\u00e9bat.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"692101\" data-originallang=\"en\">Je demanderais au Pr\u00e9sident, \u00e9videmment avec l'aide de nos savants greffiers, de rendre une d\u00e9cision pour savoir si nous allons d\u00e9battre ou non la motion pendant une heure avant qu'elle soit mise aux voix.</p>"
