“The budget has over $280 million to protect our oceans. Our goal is to protect 30% of our waters, which helps all Canadians, including people on Vancouver Island.”
“Mr. Speaker, the member opposite is a colleague and a great friend. I respect his advocacy for his riding enormously. I would like to highlight that in the budget there was over $280 million allocated for marine conservation. I am certain that the member will be very excited about our objective of increasing marine conservation from 15.5% up to 30%, which would benefit all Canadians, including the folks from Vancouver Island.”
