Speaker James Jerome said television has Given the Public a Chance to determine for themselves which matters Are important and which Are not. I think this is an important matter for introspection for All Jerome cautioned.

However the motions require the unanimous consent of the House if action is to be taken. Usually a Liberal my shouts no when Jerome asks if there is unanimous consent regardless of the Content of the motions. Diefenbaker proposed the rules be changed so Hal one my cannot deny what May be important to another. The former prime minister did not name the Liberal my but apparently he was referring to Yvon Pinard parliamentary Secretary to government House Leader Allan Macea Chen. Maceachon. Who is responsible for piloting government legislation through the commons has made it known he docs not want to waste time debating non government business.
