.I was having lunch in the Parliamentary Restaurant with Senator Raymond Setlakwe. He.was an unconditional Chrétien loyalist, a member of what the prime minister liked to call his Roman Guard.During the course of a wide-ranging, cheerful chat, he mentioned to me that the Senate might soon debate a motion condemning the Armenian genocide of 1915, and asked me what I thought.I told him candidly that I had never given any thought whatsoever to the matter.

One man told me that his father committed suicide and that he did not understand why until his mother told him what his father had told her—until his mother told him that his father had gone to the Saint-Marc-de-Figuery Indian residential school.
Quelqu'un m'a dit que son père s'était suicidé et qu'il ne comprenait pas pourquoi, jusqu'à ce que sa mère lui raconte ce que son père lui avait dit, jusqu'à ce que sa mère lui raconte ce que son père avait vécu au pensionnat indien de Saint-Marc-de-Figuery.

It is this work of integration, the important part you have played in it, your personality as one active within it, the course of your life, that has now brought you to the head of this European Parliament, and so I would like to add to what I have said that I am certain that, if our nation, our people, had been able to take a path different to the one it actually did; if your father had not been killed in action; if he had been able to see where his son’s – Hans-Gert Poettering’s – path led him, he would certainly have been proud of his son, just as your sons have, today, every right to be proud of their father.
C’est ce travail d’intégration, le rôle important que vous y avez joué, votre personnalité dans l’action et votre parcours de vie qui vous ont amené à la tête de ce Parlement européen. Je voudrais encore ajouter à ces propos ma certitude que, si notre nation, notre peuple, avait pu prendre un autre chemin, si votre père n’avait pas été tué au combat, s’il avait pu voir quelle voie a suivie son fils Hans-Gert Poettering, il aurait certainement été fier de lui, tout comme vos fils ont aujourd’hui pleinement le droit d’être fiers de leur père.

He told how he had been beaten, how he feared daily for his wife and his family and, just as we have also heard, he feared what would happen to him when he returns on 17 March.
