Before I call the member for Denison, I just want to briefly take the time of the House to add to my earlier comments in response to the Leader of the House with respect to his objection to that question. I should point out two things. There's certainly precedence for those sorts of questions, as much as I think some of the language is unnecessary. But the other point I'd make is that there is some language in some of the answers from ministers with respect to the Leader of the Opposition that I find unnecessary as well. If I think it's becoming a big distraction in the chamber, I certainly will take action on both sides. But I don't want to, at this point, censure debate.
