Madam Speaker, the member for Mission—Matsqui—Fraser Canyon's riding has seen devastation, as has mine and those of the members for Central Okanagan—Similkameen—Nicola and Abbotsford. I have advocated for the infrastructure that has been lost and needs to be rebuilt and the infrastructure that communities across our ridings have been asking for for a number of years now when I make an annual submission to the finance minister for the communities looking to build infrastructure. The current government has promised all kinds of funding for infrastructure, but it has not reached the ground. I hope the member for Mission—Matsqui—Fraser Canyon will join me in demanding that the government finally see that infrastructure funding reach the ground where the communities need it and where it needs to be put in place, so they can build for the future. I hope he will support me in that ask.
