Not every community has benefited from direct deals with the federal government, but some have. There are indigenous communities in the Thunder Bay region that have benefited. There's additional money that we budgeted through the housing accelerator fund that presents opportunities for potentially fast-growing, economically important cities and communities in northern Ontario that could benefit as well.
The analysis is not complete, and I don't want to promise an outcome before the analysis has been conducted, but we do have opportunities to directly engage with cities in northern Ontario.
In addition, there's a unique opportunity, as we negotiate potential bilateral agreements with provincial governments, to look into regional fairness. That's important to me. I come from a part of Nova Scotia that for my whole life has existed outside of Halifax and that tended not to get the same public investment that our largest urban centre got.
I think fast-growing urban centres like Halifax deserve attention, but so do smaller communities, because people live there too, and they deserve to be treated fairly.
