Unfortunately, the hon. member for Regina—Lewvan does not have consent. It is really important to again remind members, as well as Canadians watching at home, that requesting unanimous consent is a very important tool for members of Parliament and for Parliament itself to consider issues that are timely and cannot be considered through the normal process. Normally, the process is that members consult with the leadership teams of all officially recognized parties, and the independents, to negotiate ahead of time to save time for members to present their points of order. I am happy to recognize members on points of order, but it would be respectful to other members in the House if members were to make serious efforts at seeking unanimous consent. I recongnize the hon. member, a former chair and current House officer, the member for Regina—Qu'Appelle, who is rising on a point of order.
