Mr. Speaker, I would like to take this opportunity to recall that in Kamouraska-Rivière-du-Loup, in a house that belonged to Sir John A. Macdonald, we can see the telegraph on which the telegram was sent to order the hanging of Louis Riel. The telegram said simply: "Hang Louis Riel".
Today, the House of Commons has an opportunity to make amends for this blot on our history, and I hope we will make it unanimous.
