From an Ottawa view point “Out west” starts about 20 minutes west of Kanata.
I live more than an hour beyond that point. We keep sending Gallant back to Parliament, and as far as Ottawa goes she (and us) might as well be from another planet. Too bad that can’t be arranged.
I e never been east of Kelowna, but have always enjoyed being up here. It has been quite interesting watching what goes on in your Parliament!!!
