Under the provincial framework agreement we have with the Province of Quebec, it is somewhat different--as all agreements are. It requires the provincial government to nominate a project. Obviously it can't come out of the Building Canada Fund; it will come out of the consolidated revenue fund.
I do believe, as Madame Verner argued, that we needed to act on behalf of the people of Shannon. It is not eligible under the framework agreement because it was not nominated by the province. I respect the provincial jurisdiction. We have put in a request, I think to Minister Normandeau, to get the required approval of the Quebec cabinet. The provincial legislation requires consent for municipal partners. I respect that. But obviously it can't come out of the Building Canada Fund; it will come from the CRF.
