The question is that the member be no longer heard.

Just before I call for a seconder, while I have everyone's attention I just want to caution members in the conduct of the debate that it's highly disorderly to accuse a member of the House of criminality and to watch their language, because I will come down very hard indeed. As it happens, this motion doesn't do that, but there certainly have been instances I have heard in the 90-second statements and elsewhere that have been out of order. I should also mention that it is a matter I have discussed with the Deputy Speaker as we've watched the conduct of debate. I hope that benefits the seconder. I call the member for Cooper.
