Madam Speaker, I thank my hon. colleague for her question. I attended the Hon. Chief Justice Marie‑Anne Paquette's swearing-in ceremony a week and a half ago in Montreal. I can confirm that the bar association and the chief justices are very pleased with the quality and diversity of the people that we have appointed to the Quebec Superior Court. We appointed 10 people to that court this year, and there are still nine positions to fill. We are working on it. I hope to have good news soon.

Madam Speaker, a few minutes ago, at the beginning of her question, the member for Saanich—Gulf Islands mentioned that she was in Montreal for COP15. I attended this event myself yesterday, so I have no problem with that. However, I would like to make a request for clarification. Although this is far from scandalous, I would like to know if members of Parliament can mention where they are when they are not physically present in the House. As far as I know, we cannot mention that. I would like the Chair to clarify that for me. That said, it is a relevant question.
