Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I'd also like to thank the witnesses for being with us today.
When you consider infrastructure projects, you assess the spinoff they will generate. When Mr. Braid asked about the plan's objectives, you made it clear that Canada's economic competitiveness was an important element.
When you consider the funding invested through different programs or directly by Infrastructure Canada, do you look at the economic benefits of projects, in other words, their potential to create jobs in Canada? Does that factor into your assessment?
