Mr. Speaker, on behalf of the Ministers, Members on this side of the House, I would also like to make a short statement of appreciation for the services the interpreters/translators provide us.
(Translation) The people that do cannot communicate in English benefit a lot from the interpreters, for which I am very thankful. (End Translation)
The interpreters/translators spend very long hours listening to us trying to make the best of what I think must be very difficult for people to understand. I want to let them know that there is some interest on my part when I become acutely interested in knowing what they must think of us. I think for the public record it is probably better for them not to say anything about it. Thank you.
---Applause
