Mr. Speaker, I will repeat the words of the former leader of the Bloc Quebecois, the Quebec premier. He said: “I consider the justices of the Supreme Court to be honest magistrates, who have at heart one of the essential values underlying the operation of a court of law, judicial independence”.
The prestige of the Supreme Court of Canada is recognized worldwide. We have no reason to think that the court will not do an honest and competent job, or lose sight of one of the values essential to a court of law: judicial independence.
