Debate was resumed on the Amendment to the Amendment to the Motion for an Address in Reply to the Speech of Her Honour the Lieutenant Governor at the Opening of the Session. |
Le débat reprend sur le sous-amendement à la motion portant l'Adresse en réponse au discours prononcé par Son Honneur la lieutenante-gouverneure à l'ouverture de la session. |
|
After some time, the amendment to the amendment to the motion as follows:- |
Après quelque temps, le sous-amendement à la motion est comme suit:- |
|
That the amendment to the motion for an Address in Reply to the Speech of Her Honour the Lieutenant Governor at the Opening of the Session be amended by striking out all of the words after "Whereas the Throne Speech...", and substituting the following: lays out a government agenda that will increase the Growing Gap between rich and poor in Ontario, while tightening the squeeze on the middle class; and Whereas much of that agenda is supported by an Official Opposition that is complaining about the tone, rather than the substance, of the government's direction; and Whereas the government's policies will continue to enrich the wealthiest in the province while damaging environmental protection, child care, home care, affordable housing, community safety and other areas of primary importance to the people of Ontario; and Whereas the protection of the rights of workers and the health and safety of Ontarians on the job will continue to be eroded by the government's actions; and Whereas the government has repeatedly broken promises to people with disabilities, both to pass an Ontarians with Disabilities Act and to put in place an effective Disabilities Support Program; Whereas working families who are falling farther behind need a government that will address their growing economic insecurity, not funnel more money into the pockets of those who are already well off; Therefore this House regrets that this government has failed to put forward a legislative agenda which deals with the issues of concern to a majority of Ontarians. |

|
having been put, the Acting Speaker (Mr. Brown) declared his opinion that the Nays had it, and a recorded vote having been demanded, |
mis aux voix, le Président par intérim, M. Brown déclare qu'à son avis les voix opposées l'emportent et un vote inscrit a été exigé. |

|
During the ringing of the bells, the Acting Speaker addressed the House as follows:- |
Pendant la sonnerie d'appel, le Président par intérim s'adresse à l'Assemblée en ces mots:- |
|
I have received a request from the Chief Government Whip, under Standing Order 28(h), that the vote be deferred until Tuesday, November 2, 1999. |
J'ai reçu une requête du Whip en chef du gouvernement, conformément à l'article 28(h) du Règlement, que le vote soit différé jusqu'au mardi 2 novembre 1999. |
|
Therefore the vote is accordingly deferred. |
En conséquence, le vote est différé. |
