The member for <a data-HoCid=\"214438\" href=\"/politicians/gudie-hutchings/\" title=\"Gudie Hutchings\">Long Range Mountains</a> is a valued member of the government and certainly a learned and proud member of her community. Her comments in terms of pushing the discourse around this important subject are critically important.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5910337\" data-originallang=\"en\">My question is about this piece of legislation and the leadership that the government has taken around protecting our marine environment. I am wondering what the member would say to his constituents who are avidly and fiercely concerned about our environment, in particular our waterways, when we see what is happening with orcas and marine diversity. What would he say to his constituents, who are happy about this piece of legislation being brought forward and happy to see Canada increasing those limits to protect more of our environment?</p>",

Ses commentaires \u00e0 propos de cet important sujet sont d'une importance capitale.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5910337\" data-originallang=\"en\">Ma question porte sur ce projet de loi et sur le leadership dont le gouvernement a fait preuve pour prot\u00e9ger notre environnement marin. Je me demande ce que le d\u00e9put\u00e9 dirait aux citoyens de sa circonscription qui sont profond\u00e9ment pr\u00e9occup\u00e9s par notre environnement, en particulier en ce qui concerne nos voies navigables, quand nous voyons ce qui se passe avec les \u00e9paulards et la diversit\u00e9 marine. Que dirait-il \u00e0 ses concitoyens, qui sont heureux que ce projet de loi soit pr\u00e9sent\u00e9 et que le Canada augmente les limites pour prot\u00e9ger davantage notre environnement?</p>"
