It will not be used for any military, unless some official decides to visits. That would be my guess.
Heres an interesting story...
A draft version of the agreement, approved by the Saskatchewan cabinet earlier this month, states the $147.7 million will be dished out over five
years to "primarily support environmentally sustainable municipal infrastructure".
The deal also states that "routine repair and maintenance costs" and services normally provided by a municipality cannot be funded under the
program.
Eligible projects include enhanced public transit, water and sewage systems, landfills, renewable energy initiatives and "research into sustainable
models for infrastructure".
MacLean argues that motorists, especially in the West, want their gas taxes spent on roads.
"This whole thing is very Toronto-centric," he said.
"In Western Canada. . .we don't need light-rail transit in Estevan, we don't need more wind power projects, what we need are driveable, passable
roads."
Saskatchewan government officials were not available to comment on the deal.
Ah gotta love it.
"It's completely out of whack with what the average taxpayer out there is looking for," said David MacLean, the federation's director in
Saskatchewan.
"The average taxpayer wants their potholes filled, their roads maintained, their sidewalks maintained, and under this deal that just isn't
happening."
