Excuse me, on a point of order, I do have the floor still, and technically I can continue until tonight through supper.

Mr. Chair, pardon me for saying so, but if a member of Parliament at a committee chooses to, she or he can continue speaking. You cannot stop a member of Parliament from speaking, and neither can a committee.
If I want to continue talking until 4 a.m., I have every right to do so. You cannot stop the meeting.

I'm sorry, Ms. Chow, but I am going to stop the meeting now, and I will ask you to pick up at the next meeting where we have left off. If you choose, you can send me a note advising how much time you need so I can advise our guests.
