On the first comment, about the other business associations that are supp
orting the need for more federal dollars for infrastructure, I will say that what's happening in Manitoba is a disturbing example. The big business groups in Manitoba did support an increase in the PST to pay for infrastructure, and now, after the government in Manitoba has adopted that, they have backed away from it, recognizing that the mo
ney is actually not going to go to infrastructure, but is goi
...[+++]ng to be spent in general government operations.
Sur votre première observation, concernant les autres associations d'entreprises qui appuient la nécessité, pour le gouvernement fédéral, de consacrer plus d'argent aux infrastructures, je réponds que ce à quoi nous assistons, au Manitoba, constitue un exemple troublant.
