"en": "<p>Mr. Speaker, I have been advised that documents within Parks Canada recommend the permanent closure of the Banff and Jasper Park airstrips. This is another example of the heritage minister's incompetence.</p>\n<p>These grass airstrips are vital to the safe air transportation of local pilots through the main mountain pass corridors. Furthermore, these airstrips are maintained primarily by local pilots.</p>\n<p>Under the department's existing recommendation, local pilots who encounter bad weather or equipment failure would have to land their aircraft on the main highways. That is stupid.</p>\n<p>The private pilots need to be considered. In the name of public safety and common sense, I urge Parks Canada to trash this proposal.</p>",
