Thank you very much.

In response to an order paper question which I submitted, I do have a list of funding recipients of this program between November 4, 2015, and November 2018. The recipients include very political groups like the Georgia Strait Alliance and T. Buck Suzuki Environmental Foundation, and there are more.

I'm wondering, again, how Transport Canada can be sure that this money isn't being used directly or indirectly for political purposes. What sort of criteria or mechanisms do you have in place to ensure that it isn't being used for those purposes?
