Mr. Speaker, I am pleased you are very diligent; we all appreciate that.
I also want to present a petition about cruelty to animals that was signed by hundreds of people across the country. It specifically refers to an incident that took place in Saskatchewan, another one in Alberta and another one in Gatineau, Quebec.
The petitioners call for tougher rules and regulations in the country so that when people commit an offence that is cruel to animals they have to actually pay for it.
I am very proud to present the petition on behalf of hundreds of Canadians all across the country.
