I read very closely the Emerson report. Of course, some of it crosses into your portfolio, Mr. Minister.
I was particularly interested in the section on the north. It seems there are two conflicting interests and recommendations there. One is saying that we should hear from the people of the north, including the indigenous communities, on what the priorities should be for infrastructure dollars. An opposing one says that what we should do is prioritize some nation-building projects.
I wonder where you're going to fall on that. My colleague spoke about smaller communities, and of course, that's what they are in Canada's north. They also have critical issues dealing with climate mitigation and so forth. How will we make sure they get their fair share of the pie?
