I do want to remind the member for St. Catharines that he had the opportunity to ask the question, and he should not be asking any questions or heckling while somebody is answering the question. Continuing with questions and comments, we will now go to the hon. member for Longueuil—Saint-Hubert.

I would remind the hon. member that he cannot use names of individuals who sit in this House. I mentioned it prior to this, and I would ask him not to do it. The member for Brantford—Brant has two seconds to wrap up.

I am not going to allow this to continue. We dealt with this yesterday. I want to indicate that the hon. member is questioning another member's right to participate in debate. The member was duly elected and sworn in and has the same rights and privileges as other members. Whether there is or is not an investigation into a member's conduct has no impact on their ability to participate in proceedings. I would ask members, while I am reading this statement, to please keep their comments to themselves. As it is stated on page 254 of House of Commons Procedure and Practice, “Even the laying of a criminal charge against a Member,” which is not the situation being raised here, “has no effect on his or her eligibility to remain in office.” I would also remind members that the conduct of a member can be brought before the House only by way of a specific charge contained in a substantive motion. Therefore, there will be no other points of order entertained on this particular matter. The hon. member for Calgary Skyview.

Order. I want to remind members that heckling is not allowed. Having conversations from one side of the House to the other is not acceptable while someone has the floor. I want to ask members in the House to be very respectful of those who have the floor. The hon. member for Calgary Skyview.

I have been trying to give the hon. member a signal to let him know that his time was running out. Maybe he could add to his speech during questions and comments. The hon. member for Battle River—Crowfoot, whom I will advise to be very careful.

I have to interrupt the member to point out that his comments seem to be veering toward something I have already made a statement about. I therefore expect the member to ensure that his question is related to the subject at hand.

I would remind the member that he is to address his questions and comments through the chair. He may want to use the words “he” or “she” as opposed to “you”. A brief question, the hon. member for Vancouver East.

Order, please. It is very difficult to hear what the member is saying when members on this side of the House are yelling. I would say that it is more than heckling. Neither are acceptable when someone has the floor. I would ask members who have questions and comments to jot them down if they think they might forget them and they will have an opportunity to ask them after the member's speech. The hon. member for Winnipeg North.

Order, please. Members need to restrain themselves a bit for the respect of not only the individual who has the floor right now but also for this place. Again, if members have questions and comments, please reserve them for when it is time for questions and comments. The hon. member for Winnipeg North.

I need to allow for a brief question. I am sorry. I want to remind members to keep their questions within a minute for the first two and then 30 seconds after that. I would ask the member for Courtenay—Alberni to be very brief with his question so we can get a brief answer and move to the next speaker.
