Mr. Speaker, my riding is home to the St. Clair River. It is of great benefit to the local economies in the region and nearly 170,000 citizens rely on the river for drinking water.
For many years there have been few, if any, cleanup dollars from senior levels of government. Funding for serious environmental issue was very hard to come by.
Could the Minister of the Environment please tell the House how the government is supporting the people in my riding in helping to clean up the St. Clair River?
