Madam Speaker, that is exactly why I think this is an important piece. I mentioned this while I was speaking, but to really understand the priorities of a region, members sometimes have to be there longer than than they are here. When we go to events, we see the mayor and the council, but do we get an opportunity to speak to the people who are operating within the municipality, the people who are building the homes or the planners? They told me that they had never met their member of Parliament, and that was a very important piece I was able to do while I was there.
