Mr. Speaker, I thank my colleague for her question.
There is always a debate, and that is why we have this Parliament—to discuss the issues together.
Those who support the new mandate of the Canadian Museum of History include many historians, such as Richard Gwyn, Jack Granatstein, Charlotte Gray, Réal Bélanger and Yves Frenette. The Canadian Museums Association is also a very vocal supporter of this initiative.
I should also mention certain organizations that are heavily involved in history education and training, such as the Historica-Dominion Institute. These organizations are aware that it is very important to have a new museum with a clear national mandate to share these stories everywhere in Canada, from coast to coast.
