Raymond Bonin Liberal Nickel Belt, ON

moved for leave to introduce Bill C-416, An Act to change the name of the electoral district of Nickel Belt.

Mr. Speaker, it is with great honour that I introduce this private member's bill, an act to change the name of the electoral district of Nickel Belt.

This bill will substitute the name Sudbury--Nipissing for the name Nickel Belt, which will geographically reflect the constituents that I represent and will realistically illustrate certain community factors in terms of how the communities wish to be identified.
