Condolences following the death of André Caron, M.P.


January 10, 1997
Ottawa, Ontario

Prime Minister Jean Chrétien paid tribute to the late André Caron, M.P. (Jonquière), who died today.

"My fellow Liberal MPs and I were saddened to learn of the death of André Caron. Mr. Caron was a congenial man who was respected by MPs on both sides of the House. He represented his constituents in the Parliament of Canada with integrity and dedication. His colleagues in the House of Commons have admired the courage he demonstrated in a lengthy and difficult battle with cancer.

My wife and I extend our sincere condolences to the family and friends of the late André Caron."
