Mr. Speaker, as he is the minister for northern Ontario, I would like to talk about the complete failure we have seen right across northern Ontario in terms of rural municipal infrastructure. After years of underfunding, our communities have been left with debt payments on infrastructure that most tax rolls simply cannot meet.
He has heard me speak many times about the failing of commerce, the failing of other programs and the lack of infrastructure support from the federal government. However, I want to ask him a specific question because we have talked about this case many times. Larder Lake and Virginiatown have been waiting and looking for help, can those two communities expect help from his government, yes or no?
