Just on a point of order, we have some special, esteemed guests here whom some of you may know from ancient years.
Paul Szabo was here for 17 years. When they used to count the number of words uttered in the House, a number of times he was the person who had said most there. He was like the Kevin Lamoureux of today
There's also Derek Lee. As you know, in these meetings, and you can look at Mr. Reid's pile, we look at all of these learned books. Derek Lee is the author of one of these learned books, The Power of Parliamentary Houses to Send for Persons, Papers and Records: A Sourcebook on the Law of Precedent of Parliamentary Subpoena Powers for Canadian and other Houses. He was here 23 years and was close to being the dean of the House, the longest-serving person here. If you want to chat with those guys, they don't get to Ottawa that often anymore.
Welcome, it's great to have you seeing our erudite hearings that are going on.
Carry on, Mr. Richards.
