One of the challenges we have had in opposition is that we have been asking for information on what has actually been spent. Here, the assumption is that 30% of infrastructure money has actually hit the street. We've been asking repeatedly for job creation numbers, and to no avail.
One of my concerns is that the most recent information from the representatives of municipal organizations across the country has been that of approximately 3,000 projects that have been announced, barely a third have in fact been started. So if only a third of the projects announced have actually been started, they certainly haven't been finished.
If that's the case, if only 30% of the projects have only been started, there's no possible way that a full 30% of the amount of money can have actually hit the street. I would question the assumption of the Construction Sector Council--it's nothing against them--just because, admittedly, we're having trouble getting that information.
Based on that alone, do you have any comment, given your employment numbers and that speculation and if I'm telling you based on our information that there's no way 30% could have hit the street? Could you just comment on that?
