Unlike my colleague, I did not appear before the commission. I was waiting to see what the "final" configuration of the riding would be.
When I saw that a large portion of the City of Carignan was to be added to the federal riding of Montarville, and noted the people of Carignan's negative reaction to it, I told myself that something had to be done to show that we were receptive. Something had to be done to ensure that the people of Carignan, like the residents of Saint-Hubert, Sainte-Julie and Saint-Basile-le-Grand, would feel more of an attraction to this electoral district. That's why I suggested the name "Mont-Saint-Bruno", which is a major attraction in the riding, and the name "L'Acadie", which crosses Carignan and Saint-Basile-le-Grand, for the name of the new riding.
