Thank you, Mr. Chair. I know you're trying to keep a tight leash on time, so I'll be brief.
First of all, I am very happy that I'm not designing the program. The government has seen fit, obviously, to bring greater minds than mine to that task.
However, I would make the point I made at the industry stakeholder and government meeting last Friday. It was that it is imperative that the $12 billion not get bogged down. It has to go through regulated financial institutions; that is one of the conditions of the credit facility. I made the point to the chair of the meeting that it is imperative that the money not get bogged down anywhere else along the way; that it find its way in its entirety—the $12 billion—into the real economy, because this is purely a stimulus economic initiative, and it will not stimulate anything unless it actually gets into the real economy—that is, into the hands of the leasing and equipment lessors who are out there waiting to sell their product.
