Yes. I often spoke with people and told them that Manawan could be another electoral district. They prefer that it remain part of the riding of Joliette. Some 50 families live in Joliette. Children come to Joliette. We are used to seeing them in the community. They have a friendship centre and go to the hospital in Joliette. The Joliette community is definitely ready to keep them.
