Mr. Speaker, to quote Edgar Fruitier, Jean-Louis Millette, man of the theatre, relentless perfectionist and actor extraordinaire, let his audience down for the first time in his career when he made his final exit on September 29.
Jean-Louis Millette the actor also left his mark on the culture of Quebec, through Quebec television. He also enjoyed a career in film where he often played seedy, disturbed or downright fiendish characters.
When interviewed last year, Millette himself said the best way to keep death at bay was to work passionately for as long as one's strength and time permitted.
We offer him this richly deserved tribute, along with our sincere condolences to his family members. Thanks so much for all the memories, Jean-Louis Millette.
