Further Return To Question 76-16(1): Building Canada Fund
Item 7: Oral Questions

Michael McLeod Deh Cho

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. The Member asked me what was on the list that we provided the federal government. Mr. Speaker, we have not provided a list to the federal government. Mr. Speaker, the list that the Member is referring to has not been compiled

yet. There are a couple of projects that we’d like to announce once we have our framework negotiations completed. The list that’s being requested would be developed through the interim appropriations discussions and the capital planning and more than likely be targeted towards projects already in our business plan. Thank you.

Thank you. I think, Mr. Speaker, we’ve done and taken the first step towards that by meeting with the committee and informing them of the process and the steps that we need to take. The first step, of course, is to sign a framework agreement. We hope to do that by sometime in December, and then we’d like to move forward with a funding agreement. We’ll be sitting down with committee to address the priority areas and the areas that we would like to see investment in. Thank you.

Mr. Speaker, I’m not sure what list the Member is referring to, so I’d have to get him to clarify that.
