Mr. Speaker, one year ago, the NDP member for Timmins—James Bay told of the horrors facing the people of Kashechewan. He said, “The school is closed, the health centre is closed and a Health Canada official told the people that it was perfectly safe to bathe their children in E. coli contaminated water”.
One year later, the situation is not much better for the people of Kashechewan. The school is still closed. The children are going to school in Timmins, not at home.
Will the minister tell us what the plan is for the community in the coming year?
