I congratulate the new Canadian ambassador to Ireland, Mr. Kevin Vickers, who has Cork ancestors and about whom the Speakers of both Houses of Parliament in Canada wrote to thank us. I have copied those letters to the Leader and to the Cathaoirleach. They are grateful for our interest when Mr. Vickers defended the Canadian Parliament against those who invaded it on 22 October. I am sure he is a person we would welcome here very much.
