I would say that now is the opportunity to restore equity in northern Ontario. There will be a domino effect, but it's easier to do it now, before the changes are made. We're talking about one riding in all of Ontario, to preserve the 10 ridings in northern Ontario. It's not just about preserving 10 ridings; it's about representation and the rights of citizens.
I am not saying we should take Brampton, but it is an example of an area of 265 square kilometres where representation is already provided. A citizen can leave their house and walk two blocks to their MP's office. That is not possible in northern Ontario.
I would ask the commission to look at this again, for the sake of northern Ontario.
