Thank you, Madam Chair.
Thank you very much to our officials for being here today.
I'm wondering about the minister's travel outside Canada, and in particular how your department prepares the minister, as well as our parliamentary secretary, for trips into places where there are different cultural norms specifically related to gender.
Do you have the capacity and have you ever had the need to prepare them for different types of...? We're very lucky here in Canada, obviously, that travelling is just not an issue, but when they travel outside of Canada, do you sometimes have to make other arrangements? Do you help the minister and the parliamentary secretary with those arrangements? Can you tell us how you do it, if you have the capacity, and what kinds of things need to be done?
