Mr. Speaker, there have been consultations among parties in the House.
I believe that if you seek it you would find unanimous consent for the following motion, and for a moment of silence to be observed in the House of Commons to recognize the death of a legendary Montreal Canadien.
The motion reads as follows:
That the House
recognize that Jean Béliveau was a legendary captain of the Montreal Canadiens;
recognize that Canadians are deeply touched by the loss of this gentleman, who left his mark on an era through both his athletic excellence and his strength of character;
celebrate his brilliant career marked by 18 seasons with the Montreal Canadiens and 10 Stanley Cups;
and offer its condolences to his wife Élise, his daughter Hélène, his two granddaughters Mylène and Magalie, as well as the entire Montreal Canadiens family, which was part of his life for over six decades.
