Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you to the two witnesses for being here today.
I have to admit that I did a little Google search about France myself, because this is not what I thought we would be talking about today—the potential for MPs to be representing Canadians living abroad.
I understand that France has 11 MPs, or whatever the equivalent title is, and they're elected based on regions around the globe. I'm fascinated by what exactly you envision this looking like in the Canadian context.
You've mentioned 400,000 Canadians living in Hong Kong. Do you have a number of foreign MPs that you would suggest if the government were to undertake that work, and how would you divide them around the globe? I'm just really curious to know exactly how many there would be and where you think these folks should be representing.
