Member for langley, thank you, mr speaker. Recently I had the opportunity to go and visit with the 2277 c4 highlanders of the royal canadian army cadet corps in langley city. It is the 10-year milestone for the langley cadet corps, mr speaker and this group meets on a weekly basis with cadets all the way from abbotsford and surrey in langley city for training, and these kids had the best questions. We had a great conversation about parliamentary government, climate change. They were really concerned about the events in ukraine in international relations and what we could do locally.

We had a great conversation about mandate, protests and constitutional democracy and respecting the will of elections, but I have to say, mr speaker, there was a budding group of young parliamentarians there. They really wanted to know. Well, what's the routine of an mla, what do you actually do all day?

There were some questions about compensation that started tepidly at first, but you know gained some steam. Well, how much do you make? What kind of car do you drive? Do you have a pension uh and I think the most important question came near the end, which was do mlas still have time to watch netflix. Now I hesitate to answer for my colleagues in this chamber, but you know I.

I have to confess that anyone who arranges their life appropriately will always have time to watch netflix, so they were heartened to hear that I've been able to finish the fifth season of the last kingdom. But I really want to thank the officers because they are doing a great job with these kids.

Mr speaker, so I want to give a shout out to captain randy bach dawn, royal lieutenants, eugene, collinson, rick, wiltshire, randall, nabors, second lieutenant les miller and, of course, the civilian volunteers who are keeping it running, vanessa, richards and michael lowser, and at the end they presented me with one of their regimental flags and I'll. Have them know that I'm proudly displaying that in my office. Thank you, mr speaker.
