I hope she is not watching. We salute her nonetheless. At least he said he loved her.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6954208\" data-originallang=\"fr\">I find it odd that he did not hear us say that it was illegal, because we did. In my speech, I specifically stated that if it was illegal, it was also illegal before the Emergencies Act was invoked. We were telling the government to act, but within the scope of existing laws. It is that simple. There is no need for special legislation to remind us that something that was already illegal is still illegal. We do not need special legislation to state the obvious.</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"6954206\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Monsieur le Pr\u00e9sident, nous allons laisser faire la honte et la culpabilisation.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6954207\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Je trouve cela dommage que le ministre du Patrimoine canadien appr\u00e9cie si peu sa belle-m\u00e8re. J'esp\u00e8re qu'elle n'est pas \u00e0 l'\u00e9coute. Nous la saluons n\u00e9anmoins. Il dit qu'il l'aime au moins.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6954208\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Je dirais que je trouve cela bizarre qu'il ne l'ait pas entendu, parce que nous avons dit que cela n'\u00e9tait pas l\u00e9gal. Dans mon allocution, je l'ai dit pr\u00e9cis\u00e9ment, pour justement dire que si ce n'est pas l\u00e9gal, cela l'\u00e9tait aussi avant la Loi sur les mesures d'urgence. Nous disions au gouvernement d'agir, mais selon la loi existante. C'est aussi simple que cela. On n'a pas besoin de loi d'exception pour rappeler qu'une chose d\u00e9j\u00e0 ill\u00e9gale l'est. On n'a pas besoin d'une loi d'exception pour rappeler l'\u00e9vidence.</p>"
