Our members are not telling us that perception of fairness is an obstacle to seeking flexibility, where flexibility is required so that projects can be completed as a result of delays that are beyond the control of the municipalities. I should also say that municipalities are one-third partners in this. The federal government is certainly taking a lead and putting a lot of money on the table, but so are the provinces and the municipalities. We shouldn't forget that there are three different orders of government working on this, not just one.
