Mr. Speaker, I am happy to assure the hon. member that the endangered species legislation or species at risk legislation will be brought forward during this session. I trust it will be passed before June of next year. It is critical that this legislation include provisions for habitat because habitat is the critical factor for probably 75% of the endangered species recovery program. Without the habitat we do not have the species.
I can assure the member that we will be bearing her remarks and her proposal in mind when this legislation comes forward.
