Thank you, Madam Chair.
I just thought for the sake of transparency I would provide the committee with some documents that some committee members may not have been able to find. I found some that are not secret, but are actually available to the public. I specifically pulled out a document that outlines all of the projects that will be funded under the infrastructure stimulus fund in the province of Manitoba. I'll give this to the committee; it's in both French and English. It think it will be helpful to Mr. Martin, who said he had not yet been able to find out what's being funded under that stimulus fund. So I have that document.
In addition to that, I also have a backgrounder from the FCM. There were some questions with regard to the number of jobs being created as a result of this. In this backgrounder they actually do a calculation as to the numbers of jobs being created: it's 11,500 for every $1 billion spent. I can provide this document in English and French.
