Mr. Speaker, the tragedy that took the lives of Doloris Perizzolo and Lucie Aylwin at the Algo Centre Mall must never, ever be repeated.
Let me reiterate. The final report of the Elliot Lake inquiry underlined the critical importance of a quality heavy urban search and rescue response in such situations. Unfortunately rather than improve these services, in 2012 the Conservatives cut funding for the program that supports these units across the country.
Once again I ask, will the minister listen to this report and restore funding for heavy urban search and rescue? It is not about taking it under advisement; it is about taking action.
