Mr. Speaker, it is a pleasure to rise on behalf of many Canadians who are expressing concern about a proposed over-the-horizon radar field that is set to be put in Clearview Township, which is very close to Simcoe North. The petitioners ask the government to stop building the over-the-horizon radar site on the already purchased property; prevent future acquisition of prime farmland and the building of any other over-the-horizon radar sites on this prime farmland in Clearview Township; and finally, register the previously purchased property with the Ontario Farmland Trust to preserve its agricultural status.
