L'honorable Mira Spivak: Honorables sénateurs, les premiers temps après mon arrivée au Sénat, j'ai eu la chance, grâce au whip de l'époque, le sénateur Orville Phillips, d'accéder au sacro-saint comité sénatorial permanent des affaires juridiques et constitutionnelles.
Hon. Mira Spivak: Honourable senators, in the early days shortly after I first came to the Senate, I was privileged by the grace of then whip Orville Phillips to be allowed to enter the hallowed precincts of the Standing Senate Committee on Legal and Constitutional Affairs, at that time peopled mostly by lawyers and other luminaries.
