Mr. Speaker, I want to start by thanking the member for Aurora—Oak Ridges—Richmond Hill for her question and all of her work on Bill S‑5 as a member of the Standing Committee on Environment and Sustainable Development.
I also want to thank all the members of the Senate and House of Commons environment committees, who contributed immensely to enhancing this bill.
As my colleague said, 300 amendments were presented, 80 witnesses were heard, more than 100 briefs were submitted and the committees put in 50 hours of work.
I invite every member of the House to work together to ensure that the bill receives royal assent in the coming weeks.
