Robert Sopuck is in Manitoba this week, and today, he is talking to kids at a school in Grandview.
The Dauphin-Swan River-Neepawa MP will be telling the students of Poplar Grove School about government, what it does, and how it works.
Sopuck hopes to talk to the kids at a level anyone can understand.
"What I also do is talk right off the bat about, 'How do you think this school got here?' Or, 'How do you think the road you drove on to get to school got here?' Somebody who got elected made decisions about these things, or where a hospital is located."
Sopuck says not to worry, because these kinds of speeches are always non-partisan.
"I'm not trying to indoctrinate them any way how to vote, but understanding how decisions are made in government, I think every Canadian should know that."
He says he gets to speak to all sorts of groups all the time, but children are his favourite to talk to.
"High school kids are at a phase of life where they behave differently, but these little five years olds, they ask questions like, 'How much money do you make? How much money does the Prime Minister make? How often do you fly to Ottawa?' I mean, they're just so refreshingly direct, it's very very sweet."
Sopuck will be in Winnipeg tomorrow to talk to conservation groups.
