I definitely thank you for that.
1:30:46
And just as a, last thing from me, you know, I've often said that those who have been closest to the pain should have a seat at the table.
1:30:56
And I think that not for the fact that we have audience members who are very much close to the pain, but in fact, we have council members who have actually dealt with this very issue.
1:31:08
A lot of the suggestions that are being made really have to be taken into great consideration and implemented immediately so that we can find the best solution forward.
1:31:17
One of the worst things that we experience is that there seems to be so many layers that confuse and discourage, and we just need to make it so simple and streamlined.
1:31:32
And maybe that's with with the whole of the the system issues to make it better.
