The riding of Lévis—Lotbinière is a victim of its own success. Its population has increased enormously and now stands at 125,000. However, the riding will have to give up a portion of its population. That's why the RCM next to your riding has to be split. For the next redistribution, however, which will be in 10 years, we hope it will be back together again. That will no doubt be within the riding you are currently representing, Mr. Berthold.
Do you believe that this reunification is important? The RCM of Lotbinière has been together for 20 years. For this group of small municipalities, it's virtually the only factor that represents a form of unity. It's been overwhelmed by large centres. The idea that they might all be reunited again in 10 years is important. to them.
Do you think the committee needs to take note of this?
