Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, my question is to the Minister of Municipal and Community Affairs with regard to the whole capital planning process for smaller communities. Our municipalities play an important role in community development and community planning and they also ensure that our community infrastructure is taken care of. Mr. Speaker, capital spending is very important to our small communities. It creates such things as jobs and also improves our infrastructure. Yet, Mr. Speaker, what we find under the new capital planning process is that consultation does not really fit in the process. Mr. Speaker, the communities have to be involved. What is the government doing to do a better job of coordinating the consultation process between the departments, the regions and the communities so that we'll have community input into the capital planning process?
