Thank you, Chair.
Thank you to Governor Macklem and Senior Deputy Governor Rogers for being here today at committee once again.
The Parliamentary Budget Officer projects that the new growth spending for budget 2023 will be $6.7 billion higher than projected in 2023, at $69.7 billion, and there's no doubt that there will be more government spending given the track record of this Liberal government. Does this increased level in spending work against your efforts to address inflation?
