I have not finished, Mr. Speaker. What I have to say is that I am using the right that is given to me and to other Members of Parliament, including some who exercise their rights under parliamentary procedures very often in this House. What I want to say about your ruling is that I am somewhat excited at the prospect that, according to you, it is not now a breach of privilege to say that Members of Parliament are cadging money from big business.
