Mr. Speaker, I hope it does not surprise the member that I am happy to speak for the government House leader on this issue. As members know, our government and the Prime Minister, in particular, have made very significant efforts to encourage young people to be involved in our parliamentary democracy. Our government has constantly taken steps to ensure that our democracy is open and inclusive for all people, particularly young people. I would note that Elections Canada has also done very important work in this area. I had a very good conversation with my colleague from Skeena—Bulkley Valley and we look forward to working with him on this important issue in the months ahead.
