Mr. Speaker, the hon. Claudette Bradshaw, former Liberal minister and member of Parliament for the riding of Moncton—Riverview—Dieppe, died earlier this week. Ms. Bradshaw loved to say that she was just an ordinary woman, but the truth is quite the opposite. She was an extraordinary woman with a big heart and a great Acadian. Everywhere she went she exuded unparalleled warmth and compassion, and those on the receiving end of her many hugs can attest to that. Her life's work in community advocacy and politics was all about giving back to those in need and helping people who simply needed a little head start in life. She simply could not abide the idea of people living in poverty and so she did everything in her power to help them. We owe her an immense debt of gratitude for her service to the community. On behalf of the federal Liberal MPs from New Brunswick, I offer my deepest condolences to her family and friends. Thank you for everything, Ms. Bradshaw. Rest in peace.
