My name is René Arsenault. I am an Acadian member from New Brunswick, representing the riding of Madawaska—Restigouche.
This is my first day as an official member of the committee. Last season, I had the tough job of replacing Mauril Bélanger. I will do my best.
I am delighted to meet you.
To all our permanent staff here, I am very pleased to work with you. Your work last year was truly remarkable.
