Mr. Speaker, the existing bridge is not an interprovincial or international bridge. However, we acknowledge that it is important to the region. That is why we are building a new bridge over the St. Lawrence River. We have always been clear. This new bridge will be built through a public-private partnership, with a toll. We are doing everything we can to ensure that this bridge is built as quickly as possible.
