That is why we need to take the opportunity on the Floor of this House in Parliament—we cannot raise it anywhere else—to highlight what is going on within our own country and to try to bring some measure of comfort to people who are suffering as a result of the trade restrictions and barriers that at least some people are willing to understand the issue and to ventilate their concerns. There are some people in this House and in the other place who would prefer that we just do not talk about these things—“Go away. Don’t keep raising it”—but I am afraid that is not what the people who sent Members to the other place or the people with whom we live and reside alongside in all communities want us to do. They want us to raise these issues and to find solutions for them if we can.
