Mr. Speaker, I am glad the member asked the question because one of the large components of our economic action plan is investment in infrastructure.
I point out that the Federation of Canadian Municipalities has applauded the federal government for protecting core investments in cities and communities, as it also reduces the federal budget deficit. It says:
These investments will help local governments--and Canadian property tax payers--build the infrastructure that is the backbone of our economy and quality of life.
Those kinds of comments speak for themselves. People from across the country, including mayors and the Federation of Canadian Municipalities, are incredibly supportive of the work that our government has done, not only to invest in infrastructure, but to create jobs everywhere across the country.
