Mr. Speaker, I see the members on that side cannot get the Minister of Finance to answer a question either.
Twenty-seven mayors from Ontario's largest cities were in Ottawa this week. They are feeling a little ignored. They are tired of being treated unfairly by the Conservative government. There is no new money for infrastructure this year, after no money last year. Roads, bridges, transit, they just do not build themselves. Cities need some help.
I have been asking the Minister of Finance to explain, but he is as tough to find these days as a Tory in Alberta; tough to find.
Why do these mayors have to wait? Why can these mayors not get help this year from the government? Why can they not get help now?
