Honourable senators, I am somewhat hesitant, even humbled, to introduce my rather technical subject after listening to the learned debate this afternoon on Bill C-20. The quality of the debate has been unusually high and fascinating, given the nature of the subject matter - the very survival of our great nation.
The debate was reviewed on paper before introducing to the group of senators.
Based on the statement the debate was listened too meaning it was heard not read.
