Mr. Speaker, my question is for the Minister of Transport.
Recently the New Brunswick minister of transportation said in the New Brunswick Road Builder magazine “The latest federal-provincial highway agreement worth $300 million on a 50:50 basis will be used to upgrade the Trans-Canada Highway from Longs Creek to the Quebec border”. The agreement has been finalized. Will the minister confirm the provincial minister's statement that this $300 million agreement has been finalized, or at least indicate the status of the agreement?
