I would like to take a moment to add to the remarks of hon. members in recognition of Heather Bradley's upcoming retirement. In my role, I was privileged to receive advice from Heather, a consummate professional with the gift of wisdom, intelligence and tact. Heather has that singular gift of great leadership to steer one in the right direction without feeling pushed in any way. Under Heather's leadership, we also achieved greater transparency and efficiency in our communications. She helped Speakers of the House fulfill their roles more effectively and become more informed about parliamentary procedure and traditions. Heather almost always had the answers, and if not, she knew exactly who to talk to. Her contact list was amazing, a veritable who's who of Parliament Hill. We thank Heather for her decades of service. We hope that retirement brings her time to enjoy her beautiful family and many friends, as well as time to reflect on the legacy of excellence, kindness and everything else that she brought to this place. Some hon. members: Hear, hear!

Mr. Speaker, I hear what the Prime Minister is saying, but his credibility is at stake. As a side note, the Bloc Québécois would like to commend the leadership at Hockey Québec. They have cut all ties, including financial, with Hockey Canada. The hope is that this will put pressure on the organization to clean house from the top down. The Prime Minister has to step up the pressure. In order to be credible, he must launch an independent, public inquiry into Hockey Canada's handling of sexual misconduct complaints. The top brass needs to know that everything they have done will be uncovered and made public. I am urging the Prime Minister to act. If he wants to clean house and get things done, when will he launch a real independent investigation?
