A lot of them.
Thank you so much for being willing to be here today. I deeply appreciate that.
I'm going to comment to my friend from the salad bowl wanting to see things increased in Ottawa.
This is something that I think needs to be heard. I'm from Saskatchewan. This is a huge country, and we do not have access to Ottawa. I have had two school groups come to Ottawa so I could show them the Hill. It costs a fortune; you can go to Paris for what it costs to go from my home area to Ottawa. I would highly encourage anything that we can do. If you are concerned about reaching our youth, we need to give them hands-on experiences like Mr. Smith was talking about, to be able to see and hear.
I can tell you, a lot of those who served in the Battle of the Atlantic were from my province. Prairie people are great sailors. I would just like to say that I'm not. I was on the HMCS Fredericton, and it was the worst experience of my life, so it wouldn't be me, but we need to reach out across this whole nation far more than we are and be very proud of what our armed forces have done, and let our young people know that.
That's just my affirmation of that.
I would like some comments on that. Mr. McMullin, in your conversations around these ones who have been missed out, we need to hear their stories. You've talked about a lot of them. How do we get that on record in the way that we need it done?
