I would like to ask one more question and then yield the floor to my colleague Mr. Dhaliwal.
The Minister has sometimes suggested that things were going well in all provinces except Quebec, but I am increasingly realizing that this affects Canada as a whole. The province and the municipalities in Manitoba have their own decision-making process. As my colleague Mr. McCallum said, a six-month deadline would be desirable.
Do you have to comply with the many administrative formalities of the Canadian government? That factor alone would justify giving you extra time. It isn't just a question of costs; there is also the weather and the shortage of workers. There are also the heavy administrative demands you have suffered from.
