Mr. Speaker, on that same point of order, the member for Winnipeg North is using points of order as a tactic to interrupt the member for Carleton. The Chair had made a decision and then gave instruction to the member for Carleton to be concise. The member for Winnipeg North then challenged the Speaker's interpretation of what was and what was not concise.
We are seeing this tactic where we have members using their privilege in this place to raise germane questions of privilege, and we have members from the government side who enter into debate instead of accepting the decision of the Chair, and that was with respect to whether the member was being concise. It was not a question of repetition.
I would hope that other members, under your direction, Mr. Speaker, would allow the member to conclude his question of privilege without these interruptions and tactics they are deploying.

Once again, we are getting into debate, but I will let the hon. member for Carleton continue. I would ask him, once again, to be as concise as possible.

Madam Speaker, we have had a number of points of order made, all pointing to the fact that this member is not following the rule of relevance. If you wish, I would be glad to read the motion that is before us. It is a motion of contempt against the Liberal government and the Public Health Agency of Canada. That is what we are debating—

I have asked to consult a table officer on this issue.

I am prepared to give a bit of leeway in the way the hon. member brings the subject forth, but we do have to go back to the subject of the motion.

Madam Speaker. I have now heard this member address everything but the motion. He has touched on the budget implementation legislation, Bill C-30. He skated over to Bill C-10. Then he skated over to Bill C-6. What other legislation is he going to touch on before he gets back to this motion?

If I may, the hon. member started, in the first nine minutes or so of this intervention, to speak strictly to the question of privilege. It is in the past five minutes that he has been on this subject.

Madam Speaker, the question of relevance was previously raised and the Speaker gave instruction for the member to resume. Since that point, the question of privilege that the House is debating has not been raised, but, instead, all items except for that item have been raised, including naming other items on the Order Paper in the coming days and questions of privilege other than one that is currently being debate, including the one raised by the member for Carleton earlier today.
The member is not being relevant to the topic at hand.

As I have expressed before, there is leeway in the way we interpret relevance.
I have invited the hon. member to go back to the question. The hon. member for Kingston and the Islands has the floor and he may proceed with his points.

Madam Speaker, I rise on a point of order. I appreciate the member's service on that committee, but we are here to debate a specific motion. He has yet to address this. He is giving us background of his committee, of which I am sure he is proud. Perhaps, Madam Speaker, you could get him to come to the motion.

I appreciate the hon. member's point of order. I want to remind members that when they are debating or presenting in the House, they have to be addressing the subject matter at hand, or mentioning the subject matter at hand or portions of it. I know there is some latitude in the speeches, but I want to remind the hon. member and all members that when they are making their speeches, to please ensure they keep in mind the subject matter they are actually debating.
The hon. member for Ottawa South.

Madam Speaker, I rise on a point of order. Five minutes ago I raised a point of order with you, and you asked the member to be relevant. He is basically reviewing the annual reports of his committee, which is not the subject of tonight's debate.
He is not a rookie. He certainly has a committee role that is important, but I would ask you to rule whether he is being relevant to the issue or simply disregarding your ruling and this House.

Madam Speaker, on that same point of order, the entire premise of the government's position hinges on the committee the member represents. The entire argument from the government has to do specifically with this committee, so the member explaining why this committee is the important committee for this is extremely relevant to the argument that the government made.
I would encourage the Speaker to allow him to continue his speech.

Once again, I appreciate the points of order. I would like to remind members that the question of privilege hinges on the motion and, therefore, there is some latitude.
However, the hon. member for Central Okanagan—Similkameen—Nicola is correct that the hon. member for Ottawa South must ensure that his speech revolves around the question of privilege. That discussion needs to be there. I would suggest the hon. member ensure that his speech is relevant and that he references the motion on the question of privilege.
The hon. member for Ottawa South.
