Mr. Speaker, it is my privilege to present a petition of 2,217 names on behalf of the good people of Dauphin--Swan River and Manitoba over the issue this past winter of unlimited net fishing by aboriginals. No one disputes the fact that aboriginals have the right to fish on a sustenance basis but not under that guise for commercial purposes.
The petitioners pray that parliament enforce the laws of Canada so those who are taking advantage of their status and breach federal laws will be held accountable for their actions. Canada needs a single justice system for all its citizens.
