November 6, 1975 (30th Parliament, 1st Session)

Mr. Jacques Guilbault (Saint-Jacques):

Mr. Speaker, I wish to ask a question of the Minister of State for Urban Affairs.
As an agreement in principle has been reached a few months ago between the federal government, the Quebec government and the City of Montreal, under which federal funds will be allocated to Quebec under the Neighbourhood Improvement Program and in view of the fact, particularly, that in spite of the agreement those programs are not yet effective in the Montreal area, can the minister tell the House what prevents those programs from working at this moment, and what action he intends to undertake with the provincial and municipal authorities to make these funds available as soon as possible?
