Absolutely.
I think that the example that I began to speak about of Brookfield and Caisse de dépôt et placement du Québec, CDPQ, investing in a private hospital company in Australia is a lesson for Canadians to be careful in terms of private investment in infrastructure and public services because it often leads to a situation where there's profit extraction that harms tax payments that should be made. Also, generally, it is not contributing to a better service, a better society and the public services that people need.
I'm all in favour of robust and strong investments by funds in Canada to improve infrastructure and to improve services, but I think that has to be done with care and with a great amount of transparency, accountability and public oversight to ensure that benefits are widely received and are not lining the pockets of particular investors, Brookfield included.
