Mr. Speaker, I want to thank the hon. member for Brant for this very important question.
In addition to our enhanced representation initiative, as I announced in Miami on November 15, I will be leading frequent advocacy delegations to the United States in order to meet with senators, congressmen, governors and other key decision makers.
I want at this time to invite members from all parties to join with us in enhancing the person to person relationships that we have to build with key American decision makers.
