Nor can I see it as acceptable that a President of the Commission, should, in a press conference on the occasion of his return from holiday – which must have been a long one, for I have heard nothing from him for a long time – say that there was no point in concentrating on the Constitution, which was going to be a long time coming anyway, and that now was the time for us to focus on something else: that from someone whose task it is to contend for this same Constitution!
Il est également inacceptable que le président de la Commission déclare lors d’une conférence de presse, à son retour de vacances - qui soit dit en passant ont dû être bien longues, car je n’ai pas entendu parler de lui depuis longtemps -, qu’il est inutile de nous consacrer à un projet à long terme comme la Constitution, et qu’il est temps pour nous de passer à autre chose. Ces paroles ont été prononcées par une personne dont la mission est de défendre cette Constitution!

apologize for my English pronunciation, but I must read this poem in the language in which it was written by its author. In reference to those events, including his arrest, Mr. Godin wrote: [English] They followed me, they taped me They spied on me, they tripped me They broke in on me, they fell down on me They hooked me, they trapped me They arrested me without a warrant without a reason, without a word, without a look and they frisked my brain They jailed me, they banned me, they exiled me They laughed at me, they tried to destroy me And there was a big silence around here then There was a sort of continental silence All my friends had left town None of the usual talkers could find his words or his breath None of the usual writers could find his pen or his ink But still I am here tonight and I'm gonna be here for a long long time decades and decades after they'll have disappeared from here I'll be hanging around looking for justice, looking for peace looking after my brothers and sisters [Translation] This is what Mr. Godin wrote following the October 1970 events, and I think we should all reflect on these words.

Godin disait, suite aux événements de 1970, ce qui devrait faire réfléchir l'ensemble de cette Chambre.
