Mr. Speaker, it would be remiss of us here in the House not to say to you that we have watched you operate. You have been tried; you have been tested and you have come true for all of us. You have been very fair and objective in your rulings.
There have been times I know you have had to consider closely what we said to see if it was parliamentary or not. I can think of some occasions in my own case. I remember one night when we talked about the grand banks off Newfoundland. It probably tested your ability to know or decide whether I was to be given a grammatical lesson or whatever. I appreciate your sense of humour.
Mr. Speaker, you have set an example for others here. You have been a tremendous member for your people. All we can say to you is that we wish you every bit of success in the future.
