Mr. Patrick Émond (Director, Research and Policies, Fédération québécoise des municipalités) at the Transport, Infrastructure and Communities Committee

With regard to the bilateral agreements to come, it's true that the current content is rather general. We see that the details are set out in the bilateral agreements. There are many rather important details in these agreements, concerning, for instance, the application modalities, the administrative procedures, and eligible expenses. There are a lot more details than people realize in those bilateral agreements.
