(Translation) Thank you, Madam Chair. I apologize for the short comment I just made. However, being a Canadian, I cannot just sit back and listen to what is being said without having the freedom of speech. However, we have to abide by laws that have been established for us. Having said what I just said, I just wanted to make that comment because in the past, it seems like that has been the case. However, I apologize for the comment I just made. Being Members of the Legislative Assembly, we are told that we can't change plans that have already been in place from previous operations of government. I just wanted to say that I am quite happy about this funding. I am asking this question. Will I be able to get half of this $12.5 million for my communities? Thank you, Madam Chair.
