Description[?]:
| Mr Speaker, United Voice recognises the unique ecological heritage that we as Rutanians hold dear. Our people, and our wildlife, are of the same spirit - strong and resilient. We believe that one way, with effective government oversight, to defend the most vulnerable species under our national care, is to give our citizens the opportunity to express the kindness in their hearts and take an endangered species into their protection. This way, our people will have a vested interest in keeping these species strong. This way, our resilience will become theirs and they will prosper under our care. Diane McCormack Leader, United Voice Minister for Finance |
