Mr. Speaker, I listened quite closely to my hon. colleague and his eloquent remarks.
He spoke of research that shows humanity is living unsustainably. He spoke of the importance of intact ecosystems and he spoke of the lack of government resources, cuts to departmental budgets, and changes to environmental protections that have been made over the recent past.
He talked about the importance of an amendment to the bill, to the Rouge national urban park act, to focus on ecological integrity.
I am wondering if he could speak a little bit about why it is so important that we have that amendment to focus specifically on protecting ecological integrity.
