Actually, Senator Fortier has made it quite clear that he is going to be running in, I believe, Vaudreuil-Soulanges in the next election. He obviously has no problem with that, and he's also made it clear that he believes we should democratize the Senate. His view is that it very much needs to change.
As for those comments, I think that's a position entirely consistent with that of the government, and one that is strengthened by his own experience, which is illuminating to all of us.
