Ms. Murray has suggested an amendment to remove the words “the federal government's plan” and replace them with “current and potential plans,” adding an “s” on the end of “plan,” and removing “Arctic” and replacing it with “Canadian” before “waters,” and removing the words “in Arctic waters” at the end of the paragraph. That's it.
So the amended motion would read as follows:
That, in light of current and potential plans to explore for oil and gas in Canadian waters, the Fisheries and Oceans Standing Committee conduct a study on the matter at its earliest opportunity, calling witnesses to comment on, among other things, the recent audit of the Canadian Coast Guard that identifies the Department's need for training and up-to-date equipment necessary to properly handle oil spills and offshore pollution.
That is the amendment brought forward by Ms. Murray.
Are there any questions, comments, or concerns with the amendment?
Mr. Allen.
