Thank you, Mr. Smith.
We continue to have some challenge with the speed of the flow of funding and a continued lack of understanding of the specifics of where that money will go. I appreciate that this is a bridge to spending, but the whole point is to spend right away. If the money is to be spent right away, I, for one, and I think a lot of other parliamentarians, expect that there would be some knowledge about where that money is going. We only have a few weeks to deal with it.
We asked the minister earlier today if he had a list. After some effort, finally we got acknowledgement that indeed he does have a long list of projects that are ready to go.
Is it your understanding as well that internally there is a list of items that will have this money very quickly?
