Thank you, Madam Chair.
Like many members, I spent some time at home last week. I was very pleased to have a visit from our local YMCA. I was surprised to find out that as an organization, it is probably the number one provider of child care across Canada. It has wonderful facilities and really good staff.
As my colleague from South Surrey—White Rock indicated, everybody is looking for a direct pipeline to the federal government to make their appeal for some very worthy projects. Understandably, we have to follow protocol, but I'm asking for some advice.
What can I say to the folks from the YMCA? What kind of mechanism would it follow, or could I follow as its representative, to ensure that its voice is heard when it comes time to allocate funding for things like child care?
