Hon. Joan Fraser: Honourable senators, as is so often the case here, I find that it is necessary to begin this speech by congratulating Senator Banks, who has the habit of focusing our attention on matters that it would be much easier simply to ignore and get around to another day.
L'honorable Joan Fraser : Honorables sénateurs, comme c'est souvent le cas, j'estime que je dois commencer mon discours en félicitant le sénateur Banks, qui a l'habitude d'attirer notre attention sur des questions qu'il serait beaucoup plus facile de remettre à plus tard.
