Thank you very much for the question.
When we look at the investments at Infrastructure Canada and the importance of those investments, as you said before, to make communities more vibrant and to make sure that the tax base of municipalities is not putting too much pressure on the bills of Canadians, our programs have been able to make a huge difference. Since 2015, there have been 79 billion dollars' worth of investments in infrastructure that makes a difference in communities every day, in terms of water, sewer, transportation, renewable energy and a number of different active transportation projects that are important for Canadians.
When we look at the infrastructure challenges and the investment needs across the country, we do need to look at different types of tools. The Canada Infrastructure Bank is another type of tool that relies not on grants and contributions but on financing, which is returned to the organization so it can make further investments.
It's good to have a range of different levers at our disposal to deal with the challenges the country has with respect to important infrastructure investments.
