		Honourable senators, the Honourable George Hees was respected by all who knew him, but the greatest measure of that respect is in the sadness that is felt today by all Canadian veterans.
		George Hees was opening the new airport in Halifax, and there were some complaints that the airport was larger than Halifax needed.
		George answered that neatly by saying, "I assure you when this airport needs expansion, I will make sure it is expanded." I think of that remark as I walk out from the terminal, that long walk out to what I call "Truro" on my way to Charlottetown.

	The War Amps: Newsroom - NCVA Statement re: New Minister of Veterans Affairs
		George Baker seems to have taken hold of the reins of the department in a manner reminiscent of the way George Hees shook things up on his appointment on assuming the portfolio.
		I met with him, at his invitation, within days of his appointment and he asked me to give him a "rundown" of some of the problems.
		George Baker might be a little light on diplomacy and, as they say on one of our favourite comic strips, "that's a good thing!" We don't need a diplomat.

		Smokey handed me the wreath that was to be laid by the Honourable George Hees and this wreath was laid on behalf of those who lost their lives.

		His resignation was part of a broader cabinet rebellion (led by George Hees) that challenged Diefenbaker's reluctance to adopt a pro-American stance on North American defence at the height of the cold war.
		She then applied for formal Canadian citizenship in June 1960, and was sponsored by Sévigny and his colleague George Hees.
		Cardin retorted by asserting that Diefenbaker was the last man to advise on security given his knowledge of what Cardin called the "Monseignor" case when in government.

		Hees wrote Beland Honderich, arguing that his resignation and his motives were being misinterpreted and asking for an opportunity to set the record straight.
		Pearson did speak to Hees, and in April, 1964 - although I can't say unequivocally that the one flowed from the other - Hees was named president of the Montreal and Canadian stock exchanges.

		One of the most universally respected ministers of veterans affairs is the Honourable George Hees.
		Next year, marking the 40th anniversary of the outbreak of the Korean War, would indeed be a most appropriate time for the government of Canada to make good on what has been a negligent and sad situation, the failure to recognize these men and women.
		Perhaps they have been articulated by Mr Hees, but it is my belief that he simply is putting forward the position of the government and not his own personal view.

	40 TH anniversary of the first flight of AVRO Arrow 201. Head table speeches. March 20, 1998.
		A few you may remember on the 20th anniversary of the cancellation of the Arrow Program, that George Hees was interviewed on the CBC Radio program MorningSide and he went on to say that the cancellation was inevitable in any case because the Arrows were completely obsolete before it flew (laughter from the audience..).
		George Hees stated that the Arrows were designed to intercept Soviet bombers at 25,000 feet and when we found out that the Soviet bombers were in fact going to be flying over at 50,000, we knew that the Arrow would not be able to catch them without falling out of the sky (more laughter..).
		Now, these are his words and he obviously never read the RCAF specifications on the Arrow and he certainly didn't know what was going on and what we were doing in the flight tests side.
