Mr. Speaker, it is more than that, actually. I have been working with my member of provincial Parliament on a plan for two-way, all-day GO trains. This is an important priority for both the member for Kitchener Centre and for me.
The federal government has committed the funding. Then, at various times, the provincial government commits funding, but only when it seems to be politically expedient. I do not mind pointing out to my colleague how that works.
We recently had a by-election in Milton. Doug Ford wanted a Conservative elected, so he had the transport minister write a letter to the federal government saying that the government was ready to invest some money into a both-directions, all-day GO train service for Milton; it is just a matter of the federal government coming into play. This is kind of ironic because we committed that funding in 2021. We told Doug Ford to come to the table to build a both-directions, all-day GO train service for Milton. Unfortunately, it did not fit his political goals at the time.
However, I am very excited to talk to my friend about more train service for our two communities.
