Thank you, Minister.

Minister, it's important to highlight the significant contributions of the Canada Infrastructure Bank across the nation. The CIB investments have resulted in a reduction of 8.3 metric tons of annual greenhouse gas emissions, investments in 46 indigenous communities, financing for 5,466 zero-emissions buses and broadband connectivity for over 434,000 homes.

Could you discuss the significance of these investments by the CIB throughout Canada?

Additionally, as you had also mentioned, what are the reasons for the Conservative Party's opposition to initiatives aimed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions?
