asked for leave to introduce Bill C-326, an act to change the name of the electoral district of Bourassa.
Mr. Speaker, I am pleased to introduce this bill aimed at changing the name of my riding of Bourassa to Montréal-Nord.
My riding now includes and intersects the boundaries of the municipality of Montreal North. The residents identify very much with their city.
It must be pointed out that the provincial riding is also called Bourassa, which creates confusion among voters. The people I consulted expressed their support for this change.
(Motion agreed to, bill read the first time and printed.)
