We must also provide people with better access to their MPs. They should not have to wait, as my colleague said, sometimes more than a month to meet us in our constituency offices. Our constituents know the important work we have to do within our communities, and it is time that our institutions reflected that.</p>",

Ils ne devraient pas attendre, comme mon coll\u00e8gue l'a dit, parfois plus d'un mois pour nous rencontrer dans les bureaux de circonscription.
