Thank you, Mr. Chair.
It's with sadness that I report—I think most members know—that we lost a former member of FOPO. We found out last Friday. It was Mr. Bob Sopuck, who served on this committee for many years as representative from Swan River—Neepawa. He was a fisheries biologist. He really knew what he was talking about and brought a lot of wisdom to this committee for many years.
I had the pleasure of serving with him for my first four years. I think Mr. McDonald, Mr. Morrissey and Mr. Hardie will recall that he was a fiery personality, but you could not get anything by him when it came to fisheries.
Could we have a moment of silence to recognize Bob?
