Mr. Speaker, I would like to draw the attention of this House to a benefit show given Friday. It was entitled “Quebec/New York, a show for life”. The aim of the show was give to raise money for the victims of the attacks in the United States.
Before an audience of 12,000, Quebec artists such as Lara Fabian, Jean-Pierre Ferland, Éric Lapointe, Claude Dubois and Kevin Parent gave excellent performances.
The evening was a very emotional one. It gave artists and a large number of Quebecers an opportunity to express their solidarity with our American friends.
