Mr. Speaker, I wish to pay tribute to one of Quebec's great actors, Yvon Dufour, who passed away last week.
I had occasion to work with Yvon on a business project for a number of years, and I will always remember his sense of humour and how easy he was to get along with.
Many will remember him in Le Survenant , Le temps d'une paix , Les enquêtes Jobidon and La petite semaine . Yvon enjoyed life, and was a generous and fun-loving person.
He was very active in the community. He represented the Association des aphasiques de la ville de Québec for many years and was made honorary chair of the Semaine québécoise des personnes handicapées this past December.
To his wife Josette, and his children and family, we respectfully extend our heartfelt condolences.
