Mr. Speaker, first of all, before answering the hon. member's question, let me say that I was relieved to learn that the Leader of the Opposition was on his way to recovery. In the months to come, he will have to exhibit incredible strength, something we all know he is capable of, and we wish him much courage in getting better. Knowing the Leader of the Opposition-he is a real fighter-we are confident that he will return quickly.
In the name of all Canadians I would wish the Leader of the Opposition a very speedy recovery. The whole of Canada was watching the events of the last few days. Our hearts go out to him and to his family. We wish his speedy return to the House.
