Thank you, Mr. Chair.

For some MPs and for some parties, the Canada Infrastructure Bank has no purpose. But I believe the opposite. In Laval alone, the bank helped to revamp and improve the Société de transport de Laval, including services, energy and greenhouse gas reduction.

Minister, there are two large infrastructure projects in my riding, specifically the Pie‑IX bridge and the extension of highway 19, between highway 440 in Laval and highway 640 in Bois‑des‑Filion.

Can you update the committee about the status of both infrastructure projects and outline the impacts they will have on transportation in our communities?
