Mr. Speaker, looking at the Standing Orders, I am raising a point of order under Standing Order 18. I believe the member for Whitby made a very serious allegation against the member for Leeds—Grenville—Thousand Islands and Rideau Lakes. During an exchange in question period, the member for Whitby said that the member “falsely claims”. He did not say “alleged” or “made an allegation”, which means he is implying that the member misled the House and was lying to it. I wonder if the member for Whitby could clarify whether he was saying that the member for Leeds—Grenville—Thousand Islands and Rideau Lakes was in fact lying, which would be a breach of privilege to mislead the House. If not, I would invite him to retract his statement and apologize.

Before I give a response to the member for Calgary Shepard, if the member for Whitby would like to rise, he is welcome to do so. I thank the member for Calgary Shepard. I am going to take this back, and I will come back to the member at the first possible opportunity.
