Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I also thank Mr. Clark. We respect you and appreciate everything you do to help us have the freedoms and enjoy the freedoms that we do in this country. It's very important to me.
We have two monuments in my riding. This year, I witnessed both of them, and what I really appreciated was having the children from the school participate. Because of the lockdowns, unfortunately things were scaled back, but in the past we have had that opportunity.
One of our monuments is in a community centre area. The veterans come into the community. There's a small gesture where we offer tea, coffee, cookies or whatever. The young children are allowed to come to speak with them, learn about the war and understand that the reason they live in a society such as ours is that we had people like you who went and fought for our freedoms.
Earlier you mentioned education. Would you not agree that it would be more important to have the one-on-one personal aspect in education prior to Remembrance Day and have the young children involved to better understand why we have these freedoms?
