Thank you very much.
On that note, I'm glad we're talking about the opportunity to reform the way we do what we do. We've been talking a lot about flexibility.
I want to thank you, Ms. Stewart, for bringing that up, because we're talking about a hybrid Parliament, which is a blend of virtual and in-person. We seem to be always talking about these two extremes, but what we're talking about here is “life happens”. If something were to happen and you need to be in your riding.... Day care calls; your child is sick and no one else can watch the child, so you need to be there. Things happen in life.
Ms. Clark, you mentioned being the daughter of a parliamentarian. We've heard from other parliamentarians and we've heard from other witnesses, but we haven't heard from a family member of a parliamentarian. In your expert opinion, having lived through this, would you recommend a hybrid Parliament in terms of assisting parliamentarians and their families in being able to still continue to do what we need to do in both parts of our lives?
