Thank you, Mr. Chair.
It is important to remember the facts. Our colleague, the member for Brantford—Brant, asked a question. The answer given by the Minister, Minister Duclos, was in French. My colleague wanted to hear the answer, but he was not wearing his earpiece. He was therefore not able to hear the answer properly. That is what happened. His intention was absolutely not to correct the Minister or tell him he had not answered in English, but he moved on to something else.
In fact, Mr. Iacono said as much in reminding us of the facts. That said, the member for Brantford—Brant apologized after question period—
