Mr. Speaker, our government is keenly aware of the environmental impact that abandoned vessels can have on Canadians and their communities. Fisheries and Oceans Canada is committed to working with local communities and harbour authorities to reduce the number of abandoned vessels. Fisheries and Oceans Canada's efforts are paying off. Since 2017, more than 584 hazardous vessels have been removed. Whether it is by following the rules or reporting any offences, we all have a role to play in keeping our waterways safe.
