Please, issue a ruling and let the matter rest. There is a bad precedent that is being set in this House. I will never encourage it even from Members on my side. The minute you issue a ruling, whether I agree with you or not, you are the final authority of the House. Mr. Speaker, Sir, once you have given a direction, I will live by it, in the past, now and in the future. I give you my assurance. That is the tradition of the House, which I do not want you to violate. Please, stick by it."}
