Mr. Speaker, the government continues to put Canadians at risk with cuts to food safety, environmental monitoring and now marine safety.
Fisheries and Oceans is closing almost half of the marine communications and traffic centres across the country, including those in Montreal and Vancouver. These centres monitor marine traffic, and cutting them increases the risk of accidents involving passenger ships or tankers carrying crude oil.
When will the government stop gutting services that protect Canadians' safety and the environment?
