Mr. Speaker, I move, seconded by the honourable Member from Nunakput, that Bill 36, Trespass to Property Act, be read for the second time.

The proposed Trespass to Property Act is to enhance public safety and private property protections and will establish trespassing as a territorial offence. The bill will address significant gaps in trespassing law by creating a new law intended to govern trespass to private property, to schools, and to certain types of private interests on public lands, such as leases. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
