Mr. Speaker, the minister responsible for the environment has announced the Ontario region's contribution to the green lane on the information super highway.
The green lane provides a user friendly way to access environmental information, products and services. Therefore, Canadians as well as other computer users around the world can access information from national and regional levels of Environment Canada.
The green lane represents the government's commitment to efficient, environmentally friendly information systems outlined in the blueprint on renewing government using information technology.
This initiative provides information to help people make environmentally responsible decisions. It serves as an electronic forum for environmental education.
I look forward to the day when all regions of this great country will be up and travelling on Canada's green lane.
