.I was having lunch in the Parliamentary Restaurant with Senator Raymond Setlakwe. He.was an unconditional Chrétien loyalist, a member of what the prime minister liked to call his Roman Guard.During the course of a wide-ranging, cheerful chat, he mentioned to me that the Senate might soon debate a motion condemning the Armenian genocide of 1915, and asked me what I thought.I told him candidly that I had never given any thought whatsoever to the matter.
