Thank you.
I think I speak for everyone here when I say that we share that sentiment. It does not make sense that we continue to see poverty in this country, given the wealth of this country.
I'm going to take advantage of my role as chair and steal the last few minutes, if that's okay. There was one topic that did not come up. We started to go down that road a little bit.
I was on the executive of the Social Planning Council of Cambridge & North Dumfries for a number of years with executive director Linda Terry, from whom I have learned a ton. They were integral in helping to develop a plan, alongside a number of other organizations in the Waterloo region, for the influx of refugees.
With what's happening about an hour and a half to the south of us, in Emerson, Manitoba, how is that impacting your decisions moving forward? Is there a plan? Is there a safety net or an emergency protocol in place right now, in case this trend of refugees coming across the border from the United States continues?
