Thank you.
I do want to follow up on another issue, and, again, it might sound bizarre. When you were last here in April 2022, I brought this up, and I'm glad we have Mr. Brookson, the Sergeant-at-Arms and the Speaker here in front of me. I'm sure you know where I'm going to go with this.
When we were in Centre Block, the two entrances for the Senate and for the House of Commons had an overhang so that the Parliamentary Protective Service who were outside waiting for the MPs and the Senators to come in were covered from the elements. Right now the West Block entrance that comes off Wellington has no cover over it, so our PPS officers are exposed to the elements. They are standing out in freezing cold, and I've witnessed a chunk of ice fall from West Block and almost hit an agent.
Had it been one of us, I'm sure something would get put in there, but I would be remiss to not ask. I understand there might be a line of sight issue. Is there not a way that we can have some sort of overhang, canopy or protective structure put in place temporarily while we're in West Block to protect the agents who are here to protect us?
I would be most remiss if I did not ask again about putting something in place.
