Feds will stop investing in 'large' road projects, environment minister says
Environment Minister Steven Guilbeault said Monday the federal government will stop investing in new road infrastructure
"There will be no more envelopes from the federal government to enlarge the road network," Guilbeault said, according to quotes published in the Montreal Gazette. |
I'm not disputing that, I'm disputing your assertion that new roads are "not allowed". It's pretty obvious they have said they won't fund new large road infrastructure projects, which seems fair enough. It was also said before Trump arrived on scene, which has kind of changed things, and if you don't believe a government can alter policy to adjust to these events, I dunno what to tell you. If there was a case for funding a new national road project in this new environment, it would be considered.

"We can very well achieve our goals of economic, social and human development without more enlargement of the road network."

The world has changed since he said that.
