Thank you to the witnesses for appearing.
Part of the reason that we came up with this study was not to try to see how the government is going to spend the money, but rather how it's going to raise the money to spend later on. I don't know if that's English.
It could be any government, but if we use this government as an example, they've been doing different things. Just in the last two years, they've cut consumption taxes--GST--but they've also cut personal taxes and corporate taxes. For argument's sake, let's say the government needs x number of dollars. If we use a number of $200 billion or $300 billion or whatever, what is the best approach? Would it be to have a consistent approach and just reduce one type of tax, whether it be corporate, consumption, or personal, or is it best to do a bit of sprinkling everywhere? That would be the first question for both Mr. Kesselman and Mr. Davies.
Mr. Kesselman, would you comment?
