I just want to remind the hon. members, when referring to someone else in the chamber, to refer to them using their title, not by their name.

When it happened once, we brought it up, which is nice. However, when it gets brought up again, I understand that drama is good for TV, but it is not good for this chamber. The hon. minister.

Mr. Speaker, I would like to bring to the attention of the chamber that I do not believe we have quorum here in this place and online. While it is not quite 6:30, we are in fact required to have more than 20 members in this chamber, and at my count we do not.

Mr. Speaker, I am inclined to agree with my colleague from the Bloc that if members who want to participate are not able to participate, that is a problem. My point earlier was not that it is not a problem; it was simply that I know Conservatives expressed a lot of enthusiasm about being in the chamber for debate, and I note that they are participating otherwise, presumably because they feel that it is a meaningful form of work. I certainly do not want that meaningful form of work to be interrupted. I would support a suspension if that is what is called for. I do not want members who want to participate in an important debate to be in a circumstance of not being able to.
