Mr. Speaker, B.C. really got hosed when the Liberals decided to make political hay from essential infrastructure funding. Communities throughout B.C. are still waiting. Cities like Cranbrook have bills to pay.
The minister blames B.C. but his excuses do not wash. What about the culture and heritage grants where volunteer labour and private donations go begging? Why does the government hold out money promises to B.C. then grabs it back when it applies for it?
