You said what I was going to say. If we don't travel to the United States, then we have extra committee time. As you said, they are seasoned politicians. I remember Mr. Dion used to live in Quebec, and I survived the 1995 referendum. I remember him being on TV all the time, so he's not just a seasoned politician but he's just great at debates, he understands how life works, and he brings a wealth of experience. If we're going to be travelling to other countries in the future and doing other committee reports, these are two individuals who have a wealth of both public and private sector experience. I think they bring a lot of interesting viewpoints that the committee could gain from.
