I think the one positive part of this past year, with the downturn in the economy, has been that every province and territory, without exception, has worked very well with the government. My history with the McGuinty government was not always positive and rosy, but his government has been a great partner, particularly on infrastructure.
My former counterpart—I was his critic four years ago, sitting two swords' lengths across—and I have been able to work very well together. Our staffs and our officials have been able to work well together. When you're dealing with intergovernmental discussions, you never get everything done as quickly as you'd like, but it's been about 10 times faster than previous new infrastructure programs. There's been great cooperation.
Frankly, Canadians don't just want that to happen--they expect it, particularly at a difficult time. That's been the case in Newfoundland and Labrador. The first province in which we allocated all the infrastructure money was with Danny Williams' government. We haven't had problems. There was one noticeable hiccup with it in the City of Toronto, but we worked very well with Mayor Miller. We have more than 500—now 501—infrastructure projects going on in the City of Toronto, some more exciting than others, but we hope they'll lead to job creation in Toronto.
We announced a $60 million project yesterday. They've already started work on it. They've committed to getting it done by the end of March 2011.
