Most Recent Speeches (Page 502 of 505)
May 15, 1958
Mr. Walker:
That is more than you do.
February 1, 1958
Mr. Walker:
What the hon. member needs is a pill.
January 29, 1958
Mr. D. J. Walker (Parliamentary Assistant to the Minister of Justice):
In the French version there is inadvertently an error in one section which is now numbered as nine instead of twelve. The amendment is simply to correct the French version by substituting the word "twelve" for the word "nine".
Subtopic: AMENDMENT TO BRING FRENCH AND ENGLISH TEXTS INTO CONFORMITY
January 29, 1958
Mr. Walker:
As a matter of fact, it was an error which was made during the last regime; the hon. member will be happy to know that. I believe the other place decided to amend the French version, and in so doing inadvertently got the numbers mixed. I believe Premier Duplessis drew it to the attention of the Department of Justice. The correction which is suggested by the bill before the house tonight will officially solve a very knotty problem.
