I agree that we have a role to play, and we are playing it. We have the gas tax fund, the GST rebate, record investment through the Building Canada program, and of course, on top of all that, the infrastructure stimulus fund and the overall economic action plan, which funded 28,000 incremental projects across the country. So we have definitely played a role. At the same time, I think it's fair for parliamentarians to ask any stakeholder group that comes before this committee asking for more funding to suggest sources of revenue to pay for it.
