Thank you so much, Chair.
Ladies and gentleman, welcome to our parliamentary committee.
I will continue in English, and take the opportunity to practise my English.
I would like to speak with Madam Simons first.
First of all, we have a variety of points of view with this panel. It is quite interesting. This is all about democracy. This is what you are talking about.
I'm very proud to be here as a member of Parliament, but also as the son of an immigrant, and for being elected by the people of my riding that I represent strongly and proudly here at this committee, and in the House of Commons.
Madam Simons, if we change the way we elect our people, we are open to discussion, but at the end of the day, the people shall decide by a referendum. It's not up to parties and politicians because we are in a conflict of interest with regard to the decision.
What do you think about that?
