For example, on the employability stuff, I travelled out to meet up with the committee. I got that covered, and then my travel from there on. If we should leave the committee at some point and not be able to stay with the tour, so to speak, we then are back on our own point system again.
That's not fair, in my view. It penalizes those of us who live away from Toronto and Ottawa and who perhaps need to leave and come back here or go someplace else in order to continue our work as members of Parliament. I don't know if anybody else is feeling that this is different and problematic, but I certainly am, because I push the limit every year on my travel.
I'm surprised that it's been your experience that this is the way it has worked. It certainly hasn't been mine.
