To be really blunt about it, if we had to take a provision in the budget and it showed up in the deficit, then you'd be using taxpayers' money. It would be an expenditure, as opposed to an investment.
These are investments. In the case of the insured mortgage purchase program, for example, the government is buying high-quality mortgages. These are already insured by the Government of Canada as well as private sector insurance companies with the backing of the Government of Canada. There is no additional risk to taxpayers. The government is not buying toxic assets--there are all sorts of names for them--or legacy assets. These are good assets, good investments. And we're doing it to ensure there is access to funding and liquidity for our financial system so it will continue to lend.
