Mr. Speaker, I am honoured once again to rise in the House pursuant to Standing Order 36 and present a petition on behalf of my constituents, to be specific, the agricultural sector of my constituency, who are upset with the proposed closing of the agricultural employment services offices.
They are petitioning the government to review this and give consideration to not doing this, because it is against what was in the red book, which stated "Jobs, jobs, jobs". This is a branch funded by the government that is creating jobs. Without it, employment and employees in the agricultural sector will be hurt.
