Good afternoon, Mr. Brodeur, Ms. Thompson, Mr. Weinstein, Ms. Henderson, Ms. Elgersma, and Ms. Joncas.
Mr. Brodeur, this question is for you. First of all, unlike the people opposite, I am not yet used to being an MP, as I have only been an MP for a short while, but I do like to know who I am dealing with. Often, when working on a file, I try to find out who you are, etc. I would have appreciated knowing that Ms. Joncas had already represented Mr. Guité.
I would also have appreciated—Mr. Ménard did not tell me this either—knowing that in Mr. Ménard's riding, a young man named Sébastien had been the victim of a bomb planted by the Hells Angels. I would have appreciated knowing that Ms. Joncas had in the past represented the Hells Angels during a mega-trial. It is important that I know these things. As a parliamentarian, I must be above partisan interests, and try to see whether the bill we are studying is good and if I can support it, even if I am a member of the governing party.
