Some projects could be completed because they were already included in the municipalities' investment programs. New programs were also set up, like PRECO, and called for a different analysis and different priorities to be set by municipalities. The good faith on the part of municipalities, in Quebec or elsewhere in Canada, seems obvious to me.
We have had problems, and we are here to tell you that the problems we have experienced are going to cost taxpayers more money. What would be unfair is precisely for the municipalities of Quebec to have to bear a larger share of the Government of Canada's economic recovery plan, through their property taxes.
