38. deflected
    Points of OrderMs. Leah Gazan (NDP) asked Mr. Mark Gerretsen (Liberal). rhetorical question.This is a point of order continuation rather than a question, and the response continues the procedural discussion without answering any query.It is well established and agreed on by everybody in the chamber that the reputation of the Speaker is an impartial reputation, and when I say "the Speaker", I mean the chair occupant; that might be yourself, the Deputy Speaker, one of the Assistant Speakers from time to time or even somebody who sits there for a few moments to substitute when a Speaker has to depart.
