Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, there is no framework. I think what we are facing here, Mr. Speaker, is that there has been some preliminary work done by the federal/provincial/territorial Ministers on the national highways policy. It has to do some upgrading on infrastructure which is already in existence. Meetings have taken place to identify some of the problem areas which the transportation network has been facing and some preliminary talks on how to undertake them, and what parts of the highway systems would be considered. That is about the extent of it. There is much more work to be done. I have only met with the federal Minister once and that was a couple of weeks ago, on this and other matters. I must caution the House that this
whole thing is quite premature and there is nothing concrete in it yet.
