“A famous person died. That makes me sad.”

Official Hansard

Mr. Speaker, somewhere in the great beyond, Sophie Faucher is listening to the outpouring of praise and kind words that followed the announcement of her premature passing. The radiant and dazzling Sophie Faucher exuded a powerful and luminous energy that made her loved by all. This great actress, the daughter of another great actress, could shift effortlessly from drama to comedy, from writing to voice acting, from Frida Kahlo to Maria Callas, drawn to these extraordinary women perhaps because she saw herself in them. We certainly saw her in them. Everyone will talk about her ability to fly off the handle one moment and burst out laughing the next; to be moved to tears one moment and outraged the next. A true Quebec icon, she was the embodiment of what it means to live life to the fullest. It is a sad loss. On behalf of the Bloc Québécois, I offer her family and her many friends and admirers my deepest condolences.
