Ms. Jean Crowder (Nanaimo—Cowichan, NDP): Mr. Speaker, not only are Quebec waters losing protection but B.C.'s lakes and rivers are an afterthought to the Conservatives. Only 15 lakes in B.C., most of them in the interior, remain protected while not a single river on Vancouver Island will stay under federal jurisdiction. The Cowichan, a Canadian heritage river and one of the finest steelhead fishing areas in B.C., did not get a mention in this Conservative budget. The same with the Campbell River and the Bella Coola.

Once again, Mr. Speaker, the Conservatives are taking away the services that Canadians want.
