Mr. Speaker, I have to say through you to my colleague from Davenport, who has led the way for so many of us on environmental issues in this House, that as a government we must pay attention to his words right away.
When I was working on the Hill as a young assistant back in the early 1980s and the member for Davenport was Minister of the Environment, he helped put us on the international map with his campaign on acid rain. I have experienced his passion and his commitment. I have been exposed to his knowledge on this issue on a thousand different occasions.
I can only say to the member for Davenport that his words will be communicated directly to the minister and to the cabinet. With the trust that we as a government have in his advice, I am sure we will be moving on his recommendations in the near future.
