Those of us who come from that side of the country sometimes feel that there are Government services that are not applicable or available for us.

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, that is why your decision on the discussions that were ongoing before is very critical. In fact, when students come to the Senate like this for a visit, being young and impressionable people, what they experience here today is something that will stay with them forever. I am a bit disappointed that all they got to experience were points of order. I hope that they can come back another time ... view
