I think the loss is in members of Parliament's connections to Canadian civil society, but also global issues. When we're talking about clamping down on risks, we're talking about risk mitigation. There's no such thing as zero risk, right?
When you buy an alarm for your house, etc., there's not zero risk. The transparency and accountability provisions that we have in this country are the strongest as far as I know amongst any peer country, the most stringent. I think here this is a balance between ensuring MPs have the ability to connect with the issues that they're going to be confronting as MPs, and also connect with Canadian civil society. I think it's very important.
