Mr. Speaker, the Minister of Finance announced the creation of a $2 billion foundation for strategic infrastructures.
On February 5, he changed his tune and said that only the savings made on the service of the debt would be invested in infrastructures, that is a significantly smaller amount of $350 million over two years, according to the minister's own officials.
In spite of this correction, the Deputy Prime Minister continues to say that there is an amount of $2 billion available right now.
Since the establishment of this fund has yes to be approved by parliament, that its budget is fluctuating and that timetables are changing, could the Prime Minister tell us how much money will be available, in the end, for strategic infrastructures and when?
