Mr. Speaker, like my colleagues, allow me to quickly say a few words to wish everyone some well-deserved rest as the session comes to a close.
Allow me also to acknowledge and thank several people, including all Quebeckers for their resilience, their creativity and their solidarity.
My thoughts are with caregivers and seniors who will not be seeing their family this year in most cases, and with the people who will be alone, unable to see their friends. My thoughts also go out to the workers and business owners, who have been hit hard by COVID-19. Christmas might be more difficult for them this year than it has been in years past.
I wish all our colleagues in the House a merry Christmas. We look forward to seeing everyone again in the new year.
I thank all the clerks as well as the interpreters, who had a tough job this year and did exceptional work.
I wish everyone a Christmas as wonderful as it is odd and a 2021 as festive as 2020 was quiet in its own way. Every year we wish everyone well and sometimes we might say it lightly, but this year I feel the weight of my words. I wish everyone love, prosperity, but most of all good health.
