It's too late. The rule says that deadlines for submitting offers of service... But that isn't what we're talking about here. I would like to ask you a specific question and get a specific answer.
They're saying they are looking for a solution, but I have the impression they are not going to find one, that the deadlines are not going to be met and that is going to leave situations like the one in Saint-Léonard d'Aston out in the cold, where we're talking about $4 million but no bidder, since everyone is carrying out projects at the same time. We are going to leave situations like the one in Roberval out in the cold, where the amount in issue is $1 million, but there is no bidder; the one in East Angus, where $675,000 in funding was promised but hasn't arrived. In Martinville, where there also is no bidder, and we're talking about $800,000. So this is a program that probably has bad points equal to its good points.
From the perspective of finding a fair solution, are you prepared to commit yourself to allowing the money that has been authorized to be spent, even if it meant not meeting the deadline? I think that's a specific question.
