When you're into infrastructure programs, there are basically funding agreements in place that, depending on the complexity of the agreement, will require the province as well as the city to put in money. It is cost-shared. The federal contribution to a particular project is nailed down up front.
It's other levels of government that are doing the planning, but the federal contribution is capped on a percentage. Then there is an agreement that actually lays down what that will cost the federal government.
Depending on the nature of the infrastructure program, some are targeted to things like rinks and things like that. Others are targeted at roads. If you were to consult Infrastructure Canada's report on plans and priorities, you would see a delineation of basically the various programs and what they're targeted for.
The federal government is protected from a percentage perspective, but also the agreement caps the federal government's involvement, so cost control really then transfers to the other governments. Can you control any complaining about running out of money? I can't speak to that.
