I think the member opposite is probably sophisticated enough to understand that projects don't get built in a day and that advisory services matter, because you need to develop the projects. We are moving ahead, and if you look at the REM project, it brought in $1.28 billion with CDPQ. If you take the Alberta irrigation project, which reached financial closure in December, it includes $163 million in investment from private irrigation districts.
My goal is to get more and better infrastructure built at a time when it could not be more important. We're in the deepest recession since the Great Depression. We're very fortunate that our government is investing in infrastructure.
It would be interesting to know if your party is going to run again on a campaign to cut $18 billion in infrastructure investments, including to kill the Canada Infrastructure Bank.
We're about getting more built. We're about working with institutional investors in Canada so we can do that and can make sure that we leverage the private sector to manage risk and get more and better infrastructure built. That is in the public interest for Canadians.
