Madam Speaker, I am pleased to rise to ask the minister a question on the proposed legislation. I am from the province of Alberta. Alberta has been under-represented for a long time. It is really important that the bill go through so that the officials will have time to make all the adjustments necessary to add riding seats in the various provinces.
My question for the minister is this: how many seats would Alberta get, and what would that do in terms of fixing under-representation in Alberta?
