Rather than dispense with this so quickly, I would like to read it in a slightly different way, as to how I see it. I hope my honourable colleagues representing this area will not be offended by this. “Whereas museums across Canada deserve adequate resources”—true—“whereas a significant amount of citizens visit rural, local, national...institutions every year; therefore, considering the number of museums”, and so on.
Let me read it to you this way, starting with the “furtherfore”. What I'm going to do is substitute the institution itself for its location: “furtherfore, that this committee undertakes visits to local museums such as” Ottawa, Ottawa Valley, Ottawa, Ottawa, Ottawa, Ottawa, Osgoode, Nepean, Stittsville, Ottawa, Ottawa, Ottawa, Ottawa, Ottawa.
The point is that certainly there are museums outside of the national capital region that would require a visit from us. Again I mean no offence to the people who administer the museums in this area, but I certainly would like to visit say the mining museum in Charlie's riding. I think the ruins in eastern Newfoundland are a good place. I think you get the idea.
That is my only comment.
