Hon. Maria Chaput: Honourable senators, on Saturday, November 12, 2005, I had the privilege and great pleasure of attending the gala fundraiser for Jazz Winnipeg Inc. in Winnipeg, Manitoba. I was accompanied not only by my husband, Louis Bernardin, but also by one of our former colleagues, the Honourable Viola Léger, a great artist in her own right and someone very dear to my heart.
