Thank you, Minister.
Just to tag onto that, I've actually been asking you about this for quite some time. In May of 2022 I wrote you regarding expanding passport service at the Kelowna passport office to provide urgent pickup. I highlighted how municipalities and regions with smaller populations have urgent pickup. I also noted economic reasons and driving safety reasons. In July of 2022 I wrote you a follow-up email. In August of 2022 I wrote you for a third time, this time joined by community leaders in the British Columbia southern interior from 37 local municipal governments and business and tourism groups.
You have not responded to any of this communication. Why have you not responded?
