Mr. Speaker, pursuant to Standing Order 36, I have the honour to submit the following petition.
It is my duty and honour to present this petition.
The petitioners urge the Government to recognize officially the significant services rendered by ambulance attendants and to ask the Committee on decorations and medals to authorize the striking of a medal for distinguished conduct in ambulance services. It would be given out after twenty years of good conduct and meritorious service.
I must add that this medal is given out in other services such as police, correction services, coast guard and fire. I would ask that the government consider this petition.
