You agree that there is a real difference between what can be done in committee, what can be done in the House of Commons, and what can be done in our ridings. I assure you, personally, I hold virtual meetings with people in my riding.
With that said, I really do put the emphasis on the role of legislator. For the 26 weeks when the House sits, all parties and their whips have to juggle members' presence, particularly for votes.
I am not opposed to technology; quite the opposite. In fact, amazing success has been achieved using the app.
However, we have to adopt very specific parameters to avoid situations where a person ultimately decides to stay home, for example, just because they don't want to travel.
Can you tell me more about that?
