Mr. Speaker, my colleague and I share a lot of causes that relate to protecting the Salish Sea.
The level of public support for protecting whales is just off the charts. I get a lot of letters from school groups and thousand of letters in support this.
It was an effort to get the bill through the Senate. It was lost for a long time at committee in the Senate. Thousands of Canadians worked with Senator Moore and then Senator Sinclair to get the bill through the Senate. It was a struggle that took years. We must meet the expectations of Canadians from coast to coast to coast and ensure the bill passes expeditiously in this place.
