e-1544 (Navigable waters)

E-petition
Initiated by Steven Robertson from London, Ontario

Original language of petition: English

Petition to the House of Commons

Whereas:
  • The Conservative government stripped environmental regulations covered in the Navigable Waters Act, leaving hundreds of rivers  vulnerable;
  • The ecological diversity of the North Thames, Middle Thames, and Thames Rivers are at risk; and
  • The Liberal government has failed to keep their promise to reinstate the environmental protections gutted from the original  Act.
We, the undersigned, concerned citizens of Canada, call upon the House of Commons to Support NDP Irene Mathyssen’s  Bill C-355 which commits the Government to prioritizing the protection of  the Thames River by amending the Navigable Waters Protections Act.
