Madam Speaker, I would like to read this into the record. This is section 48 of the Constitution Act, 1867. It says: The Presence of at least Twenty Members of the House of Commons shall be necessary to constitute a Meeting of the House for the Exercise of its Powers, and for that Purpose the Speaker shall be reckoned as a Member. Does the hon. member understand that he is advocating for the passage of a motion which is in direct conflict with the Constitution of Canada?
