Lester Bowles Pearson (Leader of the Official Opposition)

Liberal

Mr. Pearson:

Mr. Speaker, on a point of order; the Prime Minister has seen fit to mention me by name in respect of the commonwealth. May I say that the statement he has made is contemptibly inaccurate.

John George Diefenbaker (Prime Minister)

Progressive Conservative

Mr. Diefenbaker:

These are the people who have drawn an amendment to be absolutely sure that they will not be found out. I ask my hon. friend what kind of remedial action he would take? He says it is wrong to stand up. He ridiculed us because we stood up, and actually got a certain amount of pleasure out of saying that we were slapped down when we only talked. What is the remedial action that we did not have between 1935 and 1957?
