There has been much talk about this in the public arena in the past 48 hours. I thank Senator Norris for sending us a very informative email. Mr. Foley obviously was quite an interesting character and did some amazing sculpture. With regard to Prince Albert, the statue is there and is part of history. When one reads about him, one finds he was a man who took a strong stand on certain issues. I agree with the recommendation and with what the other members said.
