Mr. Otto Jelinek (Halton):

Madam Speaker, I rise under the provisions of Standing Order 43. Since the last election there have been no less than 12 increases in the price of gasoline, despite the Liberal party's rather empty commitments to the people of Canada. In view of the fact that Canadians are now contributing a total of 56 cents to federal coffers on every gallon of gas consumed, or 33.7 per cent of the $1.66 per gallon now being charged in Ontario, and because the Prime Minister (Mr. Trudeau) misled this House yesterday by stating that the federal government received only 10 per cent from petroleum revenues, I move, seconded by the hon. member for Perth (Mr. Jarvis):

That this House instruct the Prime Minister to tell the whole truth about energy revenues, and further that the government be instructed to redirect these excessive tax revenues into a much needed energy tax rebate program for low and middle-income families.

Madam Speaker:

Is there unanimous consent for this motion?

Agreed.

No.

Mr. Doug Lewis (Simcoe North):

Madam Speaker, I rise under the provisions of Standing Order 43. When a home owner is forced to give up his or her house because he or she cannot afford the mortgage payments, CMHC simply takes over the house and sells it. When an apartment building owner runs into the same problem the federal government bails out the investor through the assisted rental program. Therefore I move, seconded by the hon. member for Portage-Marquette (Mr. Mayer):

That the government provide an intelligent explanation for the lack of assistance to the 500,000 Canadians renewing their mortgages this year if they can afford the Liberal interest rates.

Madam Speaker:

Is there unanimous consent for this motion?

Agreed.

No.

Mrs. Ursula Appolloni (York South-Weston):

Madam Speaker, the following motion under Standing Order 43 will, I am sure, gain the unanimous consent of all members. In view of the deliberate attempt by fifth columnists within the Tory caucus who are seeking to embarrass the Leader of the Opposition (Mr. Clark) by tying tomorrow's confidence vote to the subject of capital punishment, and in view of the fact that the Leader of the Opposition needs no further embarrassment other than that caused by his very presence in the House each day, I move, seconded by the hon. member for Gatineau (Mr. Cousineau):

That this House condemn all those in the Conservative party who by their actions are advocating euthanasia for their leader, when it is apparent that he should be allowed to continue his effective stewardship of the official opposition.

Madam Speaker:

Is there unanimous consent for this motion?

Agreed.

No.

Mr. Bill McKnight (Kindersley-Lloydminster):

Madam Speaker, I rise under the provisions of Standing Order 43. In light of the fact that the Regina West NDP Association condemned the federal NDP for departing from their 1961 policy which calls for provincial agreement on any constitutional change, and the Saskatoon East NDP Riding Association's opposition to the way the federal NDP has conducted itself in the constitutional debate, coupled with the Prince Albert NDP Riding Association's condemnation of the federal NDP for supporting the Liberal government, and the Qu'Ap-pelle-Moose Mountain NDP Riding Association's resolution, I

June 10, 1981

move, seconded by the hon. member for Saskatoon West (Mr. Hnatyshyn):

That this House urge that delegates at next month's NDP national convention support the resolutions presented by these four federal Saskatchewan NDP constituency associations.

Madam Speaker:

Is there unanimous consent for this motion?

Agreed.
