Thank you, Chair.
Thank you, Speaker Milliken and Ms. O'Brien, for being here.
To follow up on what Marlene was saying, I also had questions about West Block over the course of the ten years. I empathize with what Marlene was saying, because as members of Parliament we have a bit of a reprieve. We can always go down to the chamber, to the House of Commons, where it's air-conditioned. Our staff cannot. I know even in Centre Block, where we have portable air-conditioning units, it gets pretty oppressive. To be sitting in an area that has absolutely no ventilation, I agree with Marlene, if it were me, I'd be sending my staff home.
