Hon. Doug Black: Honourable senators, yesterday I learned three valuable lessons about the Senate: first, how warmly supportive and constructive my Senate colleagues are; second, the importance of time limits in the chamber; and third, that when the Clerk and then His Honour stand up, it is not for a standing ovation.
L'honorable Doug Black : Honorables sénateurs, j'ai appris trois importantes leçons hier, au Sénat. Tout d'abord, j'ai constaté à quel point mes collègues peuvent faire preuve de soutien et travailler de manière constructive.
