M. Joe Comartin: Monsieur le Président, depuis deux ans, en ma qualité de porte-parole du NPD sur les questions environnementales, je suis de près la question des étangs bitumineux de Sydney et de leurs effets sur la santé publique, surtout en ce moment.
Mr. Joe Comartin: Mr. Speaker, I have been following rather closely for the last two years the issues surrounding the Sydney tar ponds and the impact that is having on human health, both from the perspective of my position as environmental critic for the NDP but also, and more important at this time, in regard to the impact that is having on human health.
