I apologize for interrupting you but my time is limited.
It is all very well to assess current traffic on the Champlain Bridge, however what is important is to understand regional effects. That is what people are concerned about. Some of my constituents work in Montreal. If the federal government comes into our riding and upsets regional dynamics, given how this will affect other bridges, there is going to be a serious traffic problem.
Besides assessing traffic on the Champlain Bridge, do you intend on determining how tolls will affect other bridges that are not necessarily under your authority? Has that been a part of your discussions?
I have heard a lot about meetings that have taken place. Of course, I believe what you are telling us but if there have been so many meetings, how do you explain the degree of dissatisfaction amongst the stakeholders? Neither the business sector nor elected officials appear to be satisfied with your department's receptiveness, unfortunately.
