Thank you.

I really appreciated your second recommendation to index the gas-tax fund. We have actually introduced a motion to the House that asks for the same thing.

We know that the federal government takes out 10¢ from the gas tax and gives 5¢ back. So this recommendation is quite in line with our party’s values.

Could you explain how the distribution might help the Société de transport de Montréal?
