If I may interrupt the honourable senator, not only because the rules require that the honourable senator must speak from his or her place in the chamber, but there is a technical reason and that is so that we can all hear through the microphones.
Je dois interrompre le senateur, non ` ` seulement parce qu’en vertu du Reglement il doit etre a sa place ˆ pour parler, mais aussi pour une raison technique, pour que nous puissions tous l’entendre au microphone.
