Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I have an emergency statement. Mr. Speaker I would like to offer condolences on behalf of the Northwest Territories to family, friends and colleagues of the former Premier of Quebec, Robert Bourassa. As Members know, Mr. Bourassa passed away earlier today after a long battle with cancer. This is a sad day for all Canadians as we have lost a major figure in the Canadian political history. While he served the people of Quebec in his capacity as Premier. He also served all of Canada with his passion and beliefs regarding the Canadian unity and constitutional issues. He will be missed by not only the people who knew and worked with him but by all Canadians who benefited from his contribution of keeping Canada one nation. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
