Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, protect me from the Senate Majority Leader and the Commissioner of the Parliamentary Service Commission (PSC).

Senate Minority Leader, I thought we agreed to work together for the benefit of the Senate. You cannot limit the contribution of a Member. Let the time limit me. If the time is over, then I will finish. Mr. Speaker, Sir, you must call the Senate Minority Leader to order. My apologies, Mr. Speaker, Sir.
