moved for leave to introduce Bill C-350, an act to protect human health and the environment by oxygenating automotive fuels.

Mr. Speaker, I have the pleasure of introducing a bill to protect human health and the environment by oxygenating automotive fuels. This is the second time I have tried to do so.

However, hope springs eternal. The objective of the law is that no person shall produce or import for use or sale in Canada or sell or offer for sale any gasoline or diesel fuel that has an oxygen content of less than 2.7% by weight, the idea being to make gasoline purer and less polluting. I hope the bill will receive the strong support of the House.
