That's a very reasonable assumption, once you hear that there is such a list. We've asked the department and we have been able to find information for 33,000 of these projects. We have not been able to see a list that includes all these 52,000 or 53,000 projects, only 33,000 of them.

I'd have to go back to previous reports. I've been focusing mostly on measures related to COVID-19. I remember that the amounts were relatively small compared to the overall spending amounts in terms of the economic impact.

That's true. In one of our findings we discovered that provinces are displacing some of their spending that would otherwise have taken place as a result of federal infrastructure spending. They're spending on projects to ensure that there's cost-matching, but they're reducing other types of projects.
In summary, federal spending ends up displacing a portion of provincial spending that would have taken place otherwise.

We didn't find an unwillingness to provide us with the information. It seems to not exist in one single repository. We asked Infrastructure Canada for a list of projects and we didn't get a list that covers the entirety of all the projects. We have to ask other departments, and we still don't have a complete list.

Since saying that on May 12, I've looked at the numbers a bit more. It seems that construction and infrastructure spending in general was obviously not directed at the most affected sector of the economy. While it would be helpful to stimulate the economy, I'm not convinced that it would be the best way to stimulate the economy, because it's not the sector that was affected the most.
In my humble opinion as a taxpayer, stimulating sectors that have been the most deeply affected by COVID-19 might be a better way to stimulate the economy, and infrastructure and construction were not the most affected sectors.

We've asked that question many times. We never were able to get a full list. I think the issue is that there is no centralized record holding at Infrastructure Canada because the various programs are delivered by multiple departments and a list doesn't seem to exist. We've asked more than once—and Jason can attest to that as Jason was part of these discussions—and we never got a complete list of projects under the investing in Canada plan or the infrastructure programs.
