Mr. Speaker, the minister knows full well that the national highway system and the priorities were established by the government of Robert Bourassa. As he indicated, the consent of the other provinces is required to effect a change.
There is still a strategic infrastructure program. What is disappointing is that the Liberal members, the members for Hull—Aylmer and Gatineau in particular, did not do their job. They would rather defend the interests of the government with the public than defend the interests of the public with the government.
