Mr. Speaker, the second petition relates to the privatization through stealth and the commercialization of parts of our national parks service. The petition is primarily from residents of the Courtenay and Nanaimo areas of British Columbia who are concerned about the Glacier—Discovery Park walkway that was approved within Jasper. We have now heard that there will be a hot springs commercialized within the Banff and Jasper parks.
The petitioners want to ensure that the national parks remain primarily for ecological integrity.
