Perhaps you won't give me an answer. In Quebec, once a federal-provincial agreement is reached, it is normally the province that manages the funds received. In principle, it is Ontario, in your case, that was supposed to allocate funding, because it has full powers. It is not up to the federal government to decide whether you have those powers. I know the answer, Mr. Kirkpatrick, but I just wanted to hear you say it.
Mr. Chartrand, it seems to me that you have developed a fine project. You even sent a copy to a member who sat on this committee, Mr. Pierre Poilievre. You even assured him that there would be no cost overruns, if I remember correctly.
Is it true that everything was already decided, and that the light rail project proposed by city council did not pose any problems?
