[Nouvelle Scène, April 12th, 1999]

Mr. Speaker, after ten years of hard work and a lengthy fundraising campaign, a great dream has been realized today.

Today, a theatre for Ottawa's French speaking community is opening up on King Edward Avenue. The Nouvelle Scène will now house, under one roof, the Théâtre du Trillium, the Compagnie Vox Théâtre, the Théâtre de la Vieille 17, and the Théâtre de la Catapulte.

The Nouvelle Scène will also host francophone theatre companies from the region, Canada and French speaking countries throughout the world.

I wish the Nouvelle Scène every success and I urge my colleagues to pay it a visit and enjoy some great theatre. Break a leg, as they say.

[Government Services Act, 1999, March 23rd, 1999]

You cannot say what we are hiding. It is easy to make accusations.

[Government Services Act, 1999, March 23rd, 1999]

Mr. Speaker, I rise on a point of order. If the hon. member opposite says the government has things to hide, let her say what they are, but she has no intention of doing so. It is easy to make statements and gratuitous insinuations.

[Government Services Act, 1999, March 23rd, 1999]

What? Speak up. What is there to hide?

[Bank Act, March 19th, 1999]

It is a good one!

[Bank Act, March 19th, 1999]

You would do better to get your act together.

[Bank Act, March 19th, 1999]

Why did you support bank mergers?

[Bank Act, March 19th, 1999]

Then why did you support bank mergers?

[Questions On The Order Paper, March 19th, 1999]

Mr. Speaker, I suggest that all remaining questions be allowed to stand.

[Government Response To Petitions, March 19th, 1999]

Mr. Speaker, pursuant to Standing Order 36(8), I have the honour to table in both official languages the government's response to 10 petitions.
