Mr. Speaker, I want to thank my colleague for his comments this evening and the work he does as our shadow minister for Fisheries and Oceans.
I concur with him, in that we had a very similar experience at the transportation committee. Not a single witness could provide an example of any negative effects on waterways from the changes made to the MPA by the previous Conservative government. In fact, at the committee when the Minister of Transport was asked if he could provide a single example, he simply refused until he was compelled to answer, and then he gave an answer that actually proved that the MPA put in place in 2012 was actually working.
I am wondering if the member had a similar experience during his study in committee.
