Mr. Speaker, I have the honour to present a petition which has been signed by almost 80% of the residents eligible to vote in the town of Hudson.
They urge parliament to make clear and present a commitment to honour and protect the Canadian territorial status of the town of Hudson pursuant to the expressed will of its residents as herein presented and demonstrated by the local results of any future provincial referendum on separation.
I would like to pay tribute to Mrs. Thompson, who is the initiator of this petition. She is in the gallery and has worked very hard and diligently to keep our country united. For that I salute her.
