Greenhouse Gas Pollution Pricing Act
Motion in Amendment--Debate Adjourned
November 9, 2023
Therefore, honourable senators, in amendment, I move:
That Bill C-234 be not now read a third time, but that it be amended, in clause 2,
(a) on page 2, by replacing lines 24 to 37 with the following:
“of the day on which this Act comes into force.”;
(b) on page 3, by deleting lines 1 to 9.
Thank you.
In amendment, it was moved by the Honourable Senator Moncion, seconded by the Honourable Senator Dupuis, that Bill C-234 be not read a third time, but that it be amended in clause 2(a) on page 2 by replacing lines 24 to 37 with the following —
I will repeat. (a) on page 2, by replacing lines — may I dispense?
On debate, senator — honestly, Senator Clement?
Was it a question?
It is on debate.
I have a question.
Leave to permit questions? Usually after an amendment we go on debate.
Okay.
Is there leave to allow questions?
Will you take a question, Senator Moncion?
Yes, I will.
Senator Wells, do you have a question?
No, I was going to go on debate.
Senator Clement, you have a question?
I do not.
Senator Moncion, there was an amendment that I believe was similar to this that was proposed at the Agriculture Committee at clause by clause and it was defeated. Is this the same amendment?
I believe that it is similar.
Your honour, I move adjournment of the debate.
On debate.
I recognized Senator Clement.
It is moved by Senator Clement, seconded by Honourable Senator Petitclerc, that further debate be adjourned until the next sitting of the Senate. Is it your pleasure, honourable senators, to adopt the motion?
