Mr. Speaker, my riding, Pontiac, is very privileged to have the magnificent Gatineau River, an important part of our country's human and natural history. It certainly deserves to be designated a Canadian heritage river. However, Parks Canada, which oversees that network, has been crippled by the Conservatives' many cuts.
Do the Conservatives really believe that cutting Parks Canada's budget is a good way to develop regional tourism and protect our rivers?
