Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, what I did during the election was that I sent the draft of this particular bill to all the Members, including all the candidates. I would like to, first of all, thank you, Mr. Speaker, when you were supporting my motion as the Justice Minister at that time, or supporting my bill. I also wanted to thank Mr. John Vertes, who was the legal lawyer for me when I was working on the bill itself. I understand that Mr. Vertes is now a Supreme Court justice. I would also like to thank the research staff, too: Alan Downe, Sandy Harris and Richard Bargery. They also worked on getting all the information or all the access to information that they could in order for me to do the work on drafting up a bill itself. And, of course, I would like to thank the Members in this House during the 11th Assembly that supported it. Unfortunately, there are also Members that did not support it that are no longer with us. So I would like to ask all the Members to support me, including the Executive if they could, and I would also request, Mr. Speaker, that we have a recorded vote. Thank you.
