Mr. Speaker, I have addressed both of these issues many times.
With regard to the Kitsilano question, Vancouver will have an abundance of federally-funded search and rescue assets available to protect and save lives. In fact, British Columbia is served by 13 search and rescue lifeboats, two hovercrafts and two helicopters.
Changes in Vancouver will have no negative impact on our ability to respond quickly and effectively to distress incidents on the water.
