Yes. This government has invested over $5 billion in public transit, while totally respecting regional and local authorities. As I said before, it's very important for us to respect the fact that a city council somewhere in the country is the best place to find solutions for a city. Here in Ottawa, we have no solutions for Vancouver, Toronto, or any other city that has a public transit system.
We want to continue to work on that. Often we hear national transit programs or.... What they want is more money, and now they will have more money to do that.
Public transit is eligible in all four categories of the Building Canada fund. If a city decides to do that...some municipalities and, I have to be honest, most of the big cities in this country have invested all of their money from the gas tax fund in public transit. That's their decision, and we have supported that. We know public transit is very important for traffic and for the economy of the country.
We have been a great partner. We will continue to be, but we will never make decisions on behalf of the people who were elected by the population of a city—their city council.
