Liberal infrastructure critic Gerard Kennedy tells Infrastructure Minister John Baird that a couple of announcements from Baird's office today look awfully familiar:
Mr. Kennedy was referring to two announcements made by Mr. Baird this morning. At the first on Parliament Hill, [Baird] re-announced doubling federal gas tax funding for municipalities from $1 billion to $2 billion per year, as originally announced by the previous Liberal government when the gas tax method was introduced.
[Baird] then re-announced funds from the Building Canada Fund first announced by the Prime Minister in February at the same location – a GO Transit maintenance garage in Toronto.
