I thank you for the question.
I think what Canadians are witnessing is something we haven't had in Canada in a long time, and that is a government that will reduce taxes. There's some cynicism abroad in Canada, which is probably justifiable, about governments being capable of actually reducing taxes. There are lots of election promises and so on, but we did it.
We said we'd reduce the GST by one percentage point; we did it this year. We also reduced other taxes, so that the tax savings, 90% of which are for individuals, were $20 billion in Budget 2006 over two years, and in this status report another $22 billion over six years. Those are very substantial tax reductions for people, which they will see—which they see already, of course, in the case of the GST, but they'll see the other tax reductions as we go forward.
We also have new spending. We have spending such as the $100 a month for children under six—$1,200 a year—and the additional investments I was talking about today as part of Advantage Canada, in post-secondary education and research and development in Canada. These are all important priorities that we are and will be funding.
