Answer
Backbench refers to the position of a member of parliament who does not hold a cabinet position or other official role within the government. When Paul Martin became Prime Minister, Dion was a backbencher, meaning he did not have any formal responsibilities or authority within the government. This position allowed him to focus on his own interests and priorities, and to provide support to the government from outside the cabinet.
