That's very kind. I think this is the first time I've spoken about something not related to an event involving my colleague Mr. Choquette.
Thank you, Mr. Généreux.
There were a lot of tears today in the House of Commons and the Hall of Honour, as we paid tribute to our dear friend Mauril.
My preference would be for us to spend a bit of time outside this room to find the right wording for the motion. We can't ask the groups here today to vote on committee business, but we can invite groups all over the country to send Mauril flowers and kind words, as long as he is able to read them and do things on his own.
We can refer the motion to our planning committee. I will make the services of the Department of Canadian Heritage available to the committee in order to find the right words to express our sentiment to our dear colleague.
