We have the great left-wing ideologue in here, the man with a bit of influence in cabinet. I see his fingerprints all over this in fact. The point is that they are the silent senators. Here is one coming in for the adjournment debate. They will get up on the adjournment debate—not a problem. The President evens walks in on the adjournment debate. But where are they to speak on this so-called trigger for an election? It does not exist.

Debate interrupted.
