My question is going to be a bit of a riff on member Watts' point around the “facts“ on how gas-tax funding happened. I think she states the record quite clearly. Climate and environment weren't the specific focus of gas-tax funding. It happened that there were projects that were funded in the environmental realm; however, the federal government did not, over the past decade, make greenhouse gas emissions reductions the primary focus. I think that's to the discredit of the previous government's decision-making.
