Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I too, would like to show my appreciation in a few words to Mr. Jim Bourque. I have had the honour of knowing Mr. Bourque for many years and have been in meetings and observed him on many occasions. Mr. Bourque always had a kind word and words of advice for anyone he dealt with. He was always willing to share a joke, whether it was in the high towers of this government, in Ottawa, in an Igloo or in a tent. I just wanted to say those few words to show my appreciation to Mr. Bourque. Mahsi.
