Member File Biography @ PARLINFO

Mr. Fournier (Hull):

Mr. Speaker, I believe there are only four bills left on the order paper. With regard to Bill No. 315, that is the Citizenship Act, there is only one section left and I believe we shall take that up. I

Business of the House cannot give the exact order for these four bills, but we shall give time to the four of them tomorrow. There is Bill No. 314, an act to amend the Canada-United States of America Tax Convention Act; Bill No. 303, an act to amend the Canada Shipping Act, 1934; and Bill No. 317, an act respecting the national film board.

Before we take up the bill concerning the national film board, we shall go into the estimates of the film board.

Mr. Fournier (Hull):

We hope it will be through at six o'clock because the Minister

of Finance is leaving and he will not be here next week. That is why we are bringing them on tomorrow afternoon. I understand they had a discussion yesterday.
