Mr. Speaker, I regret to inform the House of Commons that one of our colleagues, the member for Côte‑du‑Sud—Rivière-du-Loup—Kataskomiq—Témiscouata, had cardiac issues during the Quebec caucus meeting. An ambulance had to be called. He is currently in the hospital in relatively stable condition. His Conservative family wants to assure him, his wife Tracey and his entire family of our support. Would the government like to offer our colleague its wishes for his speedy recovery?

Mr. Speaker, of course I also want to express my support for the member for Côte‑du‑Sud—Rivière-du-Loup—Kataskomiq—Témiscouata, along with all my colleagues on this side of the House. He comes from an area that I know well, and he is a member who I also know well; he is a bit mischievous. We eagerly look forward to enjoying his wonderful personality, spirit of co-operation and big smile when he returns here, to his parliamentary family, but mostly to his own family.
