Thank you, Madam Chair. Just a small comment and it's actually not directed at the Minister, it's more directed at those who thought this was funny. I do have some older constituents who truly rely on these facilities, who feel very uncomfortable needing to use the washroom in the woods and don't feel safe or comfortable. So anyone who thinks this is a funny issue...Some of my senior constituents who are in the older years just don't feel comfortable. So to them it's a very important thing; and those who think it's a funny issue, I'm disappointed they would find this funny. I can appreciate that at times we make light of many issues here, but they listen to these things and they follow our Hansard. So I'm very disappointed that we'd find something of this type of nature funny. It's an important issue and I'm not talking about the young teens who can go pee in the woods, I'm talking about the seniors who have a little bit of discomfort over the issue. Thank you, Madam Chair.
