Thank you, Mr. St-Pierre.
Earlier, I said that you had brought the spring with you, and now I think you have also brought some warmth to our committee. Your remarks have been very interesting. I would myself add on the subject of the Klondike that my grandmother's father, Mr. Cout, brought back a few gold nuggets to his small town, Saint-Narcisse, and those helped him establish the local economy. That is another page of history.
Now, we will come back to official languages and begin our first round with Mr. Jean-Claude D'Amours.
