M-41 Emergency coastal debris spill response plan

44th Parliament, 1st Session

Motion Text

That, in the opinion of the House, given the events surrounding the fire and cargo loss on the MV Zim Kingston on October 22, 2021, and the importance of local traditional knowledge in a coordinated response, the government should develop an emergency coastal debris spill response plan which would include the following measures:

(i) immediately deploy a local workforce to support spill containment, shoreline cleanup, and mitigation of environmental impacts,

(ii) publicly release a full accounting of the environmental impacts of the spillage, including a manifest of all missing cargo,

(iii) ensure that the operators are held financially liable for the full cost of the cleanup.
