"Without immediate action on ameliorating Canada’s deteriorating infrastructure, the present infrastructure crisis will escalate and result in considerably increased costs of maintenance and operation of heavily deteriorated and malfunctioning infrastructure. It will also lead to loss of investments, significantly reduced economic growth, deterioration of the environment and the lowering of the quality of life of all citizens."—Saeed Mirza
