MessageMadam Speaker

I rise in this House today to introduce Bill 2, the creation of the Emergency Preparation Agency. In light of Superstorm Joseph it has become increasingly clear we need set aside funds and an agency specifically to deal with these ongoing issues and emergencies, especially in this world of Climate Change and Global Cooling.

MessageMadam Speaker,

We cannot pay for this right now! The only way I will support this bill is if there are budget offsets. Would the member for Langdon South consider adding to the tolls for the Commonwealth Bridge to pay for the creation of the EPA?

MessageMr Speaker,

If the member for Sutton City West were really looking out for his constituents, he would not be suggesting we make the fees even higher. The people of our island struggle to get to the mainland as it is. I believe the fees set in this bill are high, but neccesary. I will not support any fee higher than what is currently proposed.

MessageMdm Speaker,

The budget for the EPA is being drawn both from the Provinicial Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Ministry of Environment, at a cut of approximate 80/20, in addition fifty percent of all fees collected from the levies of the Commonwealth Bridge will be directed directly into the EPA, with the rest of the cash flow being used for reinforcing the bridge, and making it more able to withstand the extreme weather here in the north. Snowstorm Joseph was just an example of blizzards and superstorms that could hit us in the years to come, and we make preparations now to make sure this never happens again.
