Mr. Speaker, the Liberals and the Conservatives have created a $172-billion infrastructure deficit with their neglect.
That is why the NDP will invest an additional 1¢ a litre from the gas tax to help cities like Montreal fix its roads and bridges. That is $1.5 billion more than what is being made available at this time. The NDP will also invest $1.3 billion in public transit.
Will the government adopt the NDP's plan to provide long-term predictable funding for our infrastructure?
