Mr. Speaker, the second petition comes from residents within my own riding of Victoria, Salt Spring Island and Ottawa.
The petitioners are asking the government to cease and desist from acting as a public relations arm of the oil industry, to allow the public review under the joint review panel of the National Energy Board, to conclude full, fair, transparent and science-based hearings prior to taking positions on the threat to the coast of British Columbia constituted by oil supertankers.
