For over 12 years, Canadian infrastructure has often been funded at the municipal, provincial, and federal levels. Each of the three levels of government must establish its list of priorities and include the project. My understanding is that, if there's no funding for infrastructure upgrades in the Gaspé, the reason is that the local authorities in Gaspésie, the provincial authorities in Quebec City, and the federal authorities have not included it in their list of priorities. Funding decisions are made by those three stakeholders together. Once the infrastructure has been funded and restored, we must conduct a safety check, and once it is safe, we then use it as needed. That's my understanding of how the infrastructure is funded.
