Mr. Speaker, this week, the Liberals are de-staffing two lighthouses along the coast of Vancouver Island without consultation. This jeopardizes emergency response, search and rescue, navigation and more.
Instead of supporting lightkeepers and the safety of our communities, the Liberals are choosing automated navigation systems. These cannot replace skilled people and surely do not hear distress cries. This move is dangerous.
Will the Liberals halt this decision immediately and stop putting our coasts at risk?
