Madam Speaker, I would like to ask my colleague a question, and I thank her for her excellent grasp of the subject. My question may stray from the subject and be more institutional, given that my colleague herself talked about the power of the opposition parties and the constructive work we can do. C-11 I had a similar experience at one of the committees I serve on. We studied Billon sexual [more]
Mr. Chair, how much time do I have left?
Prime Minister We recently learned that there was an agreement with Taiwan, but that all that was missing was the signature. The agreement is said to be on the's desk.

I've recounted the events and stages of what happened. I'm doing fine and I wasn't hurt. I want to thank you, Madam Chair. The chair of the other committee on which I sit also started the meeting by saying a word about this. I also want to thank all my colleagues who supported me and sent me very sincere messages.
