Honour the decision made by the RCMP to phase out muskrat fur hats.

The Issue

The Royal Canadian Mounted Police recently announced their decision to begin phasing out the use of muskrat fur in their regular cold-weather condition hats, after hearing from the general public and their own members. In a surprise announcement, MP Leona Agglukaq stated the government would be overturning this decision as it would cause harm to Canada's Fur Industry. This is a blatant act of vote pandering for which we will not stand.
