Yes. Two questions, six answers. Mr. Speaker. First of all, we did take the initiative as Mr. Henry suggests, to see if there were any additional dollars over and above the $1.1 million under the current infrastructure fund. I believe, if my discussion with Mr. Dent is right, that was the maximum they were prepared to give us at this time.

I believe that Mr. Dent is in negotiations right now to try and finalize that. We are very much aware, if anybody is aware, we are aware that any additional dollars that we can get, particularly 50 cent dollars, are to our advantage and of course both practical and political. On the larger issue of trying to find additional resources or to make an arrangement with the federal government and possibly industry on the need for a cooperative approach to an infrastructure highway program, that was under way under the previous government and under previous transportation Ministers and I believe is continuing under the current one.

As I said, we are still hoping, and the signals we are hearing, that there is a possibility that a new joint fund may come about. If that does happen I want to assure my colleague that we will be there at the federal government table seeking our share of the appropriate funding that may came about. There is nothing definitive at this time as to whether the federal government is going to move forward on a joint sponsorship of an infrastructure road program. Thank you.
