EVIDENCE
Tuesday, September 26, 2017
[Recorded by Electronic Apparatus]
[Translation]
Honourable committee members, I see a quorum.
[English]
I must inform members of the committee that, as the clerk, I can only receive motions for the election of the chair. I cannot receive other types of motions, cannot entertain points of order, nor can I participate in debate.
[Translation]
We can now proceed to the election of the chair. Pursuant to Standing Order 106(2), the chair must be a member of the official opposition.
[English]
I am now ready to receive motions for the nomination of the chair.
Ms. Vecchio.
I am proud to nominate Rachael Harder, the member for Lethbridge and also the critic for status of women.
The Liberal members of the committee cannot support the opposition's putting forward someone like Rachael Harder, whose voting record is opposite to where women stand. We cannot support Ms. Harder as chair. We have to leave the meeting.
