The bill amends the Canada Shipping Act 2001 to ensure measures are taken for the removal, disposition, or destruction of wrecks.
The bill does not concern a question that is outside federal jurisdiction. It does not clearly violate the Constitution Acts. It does not concern a question that is substantially the same as one already voted on by the House of Commons, and does not concern a question that is currently on the order paper or notice paper as an item of government business.
