Mr. Speaker, I also have two petitions which deal with the issue of federal funding for a road which is referred to in my community as the South Fraser Perimeter Road. It is a road necessitated by the construction and growth at two ports, the Fraser Port on the Fraser River and the Roberts Bank container terminal known as Vanport.
Those two ports have caused a serious increase in traffic to flow through the neighbourhood of North Delta through residential streets. The truck traffic is horrendous.
The proposal to build a road on the south shore of the river is unsatisfactory. The petitioners would ask that no federal moneys be made available until such time as their concerns about this road are taken into consideration.
