Official Hansard

Mr. Speaker, there have been discussions amongst the parties, and if you seek it, I think you will find unanimous consent to adopt the following motion: That, notwithstanding any standing order or usual practice of the House, at the expiry of the time provided for Oral Questions on Wednesday, May 27, 2026, the House resolve itself into a committee of the whole in order to welcome Canada's 2026 Milano Cortina Olympic and Paralympic Games athletes, provided that: (a) the Speaker make welcoming remarks on behalf of the House; (b) the names of the athletes present be deemed read and printed in the House of Commons Debates for that day; (c) when the proceedings of the committee have concluded, the committee shall rise; and (d) only authorized photographers be permitted to take photos during the proceedings of the committee.
