My name is Russ Hiebert. I'm the member of Parliament for a riding that's close to Vancouver, British Columbia, on the west coast. You've heard a number of my colleagues talk about being from Vancouver; just to give you a perspective, it's three time zones away, and I think all of us were on the same five-hour flight last night to come to Ottawa. It's a great distance away. I'm also the Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of National Defence.
On November 6th, 2006. See this statement in context.
