Mr. Speaker, I rise today to present two petitions on behalf of the people of Abbotsford—South Langley.
The first petition calls for long-term investment in resilient infrastructure across British Columbia's west coast corridor.
Every British Columbian remembers the 2021 floods that devastated our communities and exposed serious vulnerabilities in our critical infrastructure. Therefore, the petitioners are calling on the Government of Canada to recognize the West Coast Corridor Resiliency Partnership as a strategic partnership and to provide predictable long-term investment in flood protection, transportation infrastructure and disaster preparedness.
