Thank you, Chair, and thank you all for being here today.
Actually, I'm going to take off from Mr. Brison's question, because I have a large rural riding. When you talk about a dedicated one percent, when I look at communities like Kinistino, Nipawin, or Weldon, they don't have any public transit. If you said that it was dedicated one percent to public transit, they would look at me cross-eyed and say the numbers wouldn't be big enough to do anything, and they would ask why they are being forced to do this when they could use that money towards sewers, roads, or something else that actually would be beneficial in that community.
So how do I square that round peg in a square hole? How do you go right across Canada and say that's what we need to do when you know there are a lot of small communities that would never trigger that?
