Mr. Benidickson:

I am sure the Toronto harbour commissioners will give some consideration to that when they read the remarks of the hon. member for Broadview. I remind the hon. member that these amendments come

to us at the suggestion, of the commissioners. As he well knows, three of those members are appointed by the city council. The city council has studied this bill. The penalty contained in the bill is considerably stiffer than it has been hitherto. We might try this and probably we should not place in the hands of the court as stiff a penalty as that suggested at this time.

Topic:   TORONTO HARBOUR COMMISSION
Subtopic:   AMENDMENT OF ACT TO DEFINE LIMIT OF THE PORT AND AUTHORIZE COMMISSIONERS TO CONTROL CONSTRUCTION OF PIPES OR PIPE LINES
