Totally unrelated to the agenda, I just want to give regrets in advance that I will probably miss a couple of meetings next week. Two of the four soldiers killed four days ago were from my riding. It's an amazing coincidence: two people, from two villages less than ten kilometres apart in my riding, who quite independently ended up one in Shilo and the other in Petawawa, then subsequently ended up in Afghanistan in the same spot, where the suicide bomber killed them, civilians, including children, and two other soldiers. That has just happened, so I don't know, but there will be a couple of funerals next week that I will want to attend. I'll make sure I have a substitute here. I wish you well in your deliberations in the meantime. It will be a new experience for me.
