Madam Speaker, a couple of weeks ago, I was able to go back to my community. It is the second anniversary of the death of the Afzaal family, which has significantly changed my community in a lot of different ways. I was able to go. I was able to participate and be there for my community. I was able to be there with friends and family and share in that and try to be a leader in my community, as we are expected to do in this job, in the many facets of this job. I was also able to participate in question period that day and ask the minister a question that reflected the needs of my community, which had to do with Islamophobia and what the government was doing on Islamophobia. Could the member offer some additional comments as to why it is so important we can do both things with a hybrid Parliament system?
