No movement in the on-going battle over the future of the Harbour Bridge.
Energy Minister Jack Keir was in Ottawa this week and came away with a negative vibe from the feds.
Keir tells CHSJ News, even a comment by the ex-deputy minister of Transport Canada suggesting what the Graham Government is looking for is fair and reasonable, didn't go over well.
Keir says he gets the impression that when it comes to the Harbour Bridge file, Ottawa doesn't want to move forward.
Ottawa's proposal for the Harbour Bridge includes providing $17.5 million toward repairs and in return, the bridge becomes part of Highway One with the province responsible for all future costs and the tolls are removed immediately.
