Mr. Speaker, I would like to present yet another petition from people in the Peterborough area who want to re-establish VIA Rail service between Toronto and Peterborough.
They point to the environmental advantages of commuter service. It will reduce emissions, accidents and stress on the highways. It will also strengthen Peterborough as a centre for tourism, business and education and, by the way, as a commuter centre. Like four or five other MPs, I support this petition.
