Mr. Speaker, I congratulate the Minister of Transport on his recent election.
He talked about his local riding of Pontiac, about economic self-sufficiency and how he plans to prosper in his riding.
In our province and across many smaller communities one of the great programs that has been implemented over the past few years is the port divestiture program. Would the minister tell us the status on that, given the fact that the program ended on March 31 and many of these communities are now hanging on the fate of this program to achieve economic self-sufficiency? Would the minister please bring this matter to the House?
