Marilène Gill Bloc Québécois
“The government must stop cutting jobs at Parks Canada. Without wardens in the Mingan Archipelago, the closest ones will be 650 kilometres away. No one will be there to protect nature or stop poaching.”
“Mr. Speaker, the job cuts at Parks Canada will transform our protected areas. Imagine no longer having park wardens in the Mingan Archipelago. The closest ones will be 650 kilometres away. No one will be there to protect nature or stop poaching. Our hearts go out to the workers who are devastated by this news. They deserve transparency and time, not the Prime Minister’s bulldozer. The government needs to stop taking this penny-wise and pound-foolish approach, just to save a few bucks on the backs of these folks. Will he stop this injustice?”
