Mr. Speaker, it has been quite a week around here. I already know the answer to this question, but I have an obligation to ask the government House leader the Thursday question. What price have he and his Liberal Party paid in selling their collective souls to their partners in the NDP to determine this week's schedule?

Mr. Speaker, I am always happy to stand and answer a Thursday question, even when the member opposite is not excited to ask it. This evening, we will continue, and hopefully complete, debate at second reading of Bill C-13, concerning official languages. Tomorrow, we will commence debate on Bill C-18, an act respecting online communications platforms that make news content available to persons in Canada. We will return to this debate next Wednesday. At noon on Monday, we will resume debate on Bill C-14, which deals with electoral representation in Quebec. Next Tuesday and Thursday shall be allotted days. Finally, pursuant to Standing Order 81(4), I would like to designate Thursday, May 19, for consideration in committee of the whole of the main estimates for the Department of Public Works and Government Services. Furthermore, the debate for the Department of Fisheries and Oceans will take place on the evening of Monday, May 30. If the member opposite has any ideas on how to make this place work or has any ideas on how we can improve legislation, I am always here to hear it. Unfortunately, to this point in time, nothing has come forward.
