I know that you cited the Standing Orders, but I would like it to be clear. This is how I interpret your decision. If a member decides to come to the House wearing a T-shirt with a slogan, speaks on a topic and the Chair or another member intervenes to raise the matter, the Chair will tell the member that they can finish their comments, but must dress in the future in accordance with the Standing Orders.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7821388\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Tomorrow morning, if I arrive in the House in a T-shirt that reads \u201cVive le Qu\u00e9bec libre\u201d, I would be able to finish my comments, but my dress must be in accordance with the Standing Orders for my next intervention. I would just like to clarify that that is how things will work in the future. In the Bloc Qu\u00e9b\u00e9cois, we have always wanted the Standing Orders to be enforced and for things to be clear. We have always wanted the government to respect the Canadian Constitution, even though we do not like it.</p>",

Je sais que vous avez cit\u00e9 le R\u00e8glement, mais je voudrais que ce soit clair. Voici comment j'interpr\u00e8te la d\u00e9cision que vous avez prise. Si un d\u00e9put\u00e9 d\u00e9cide de se pr\u00e9senter \u00e0 la Chambre en portant un chandail avec des inscriptions, qu'il prend la parole sur un sujet et que la pr\u00e9sidence ou un autre d\u00e9put\u00e9 intervient pour soulever la chose, la pr\u00e9sidence lui dira qu'il peut terminer son intervention, mais qu'il devra \u00e0 l'avenir s'habiller de fa\u00e7on r\u00e9glementaire. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7821388\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Si, demain matin, j'arrive avec un chandail portant l'inscription \u00ab Vive le Qu\u00e9bec libre \u00bb devant la Chambre, cela veut dire que je pourrai terminer mon intervention, mais que mon habillement devra \u00eatre conforme au R\u00e8glement lors de l'intervention suivante. Je voudrais juste qu'on clarifie que ce sera le fonctionnement pour la suite des choses. Du c\u00f4t\u00e9 du Bloc qu\u00e9b\u00e9cois, nous avons toujours voulu qu'on applique les r\u00e8gles et que les choses soient claires. Nous avons toujours voulu que le gouvernement respecte la Constitution canadienne, m\u00eame si nous n'aimons pas cette derni\u00e8re.</p>"
