Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Good morning to all the witnesses.
My question is for GE Capital. You said that you raise your financing mainly by selling asset-based commercial paper. Now, we know that this kind of investment was largely responsible for the problems and the major losses that a number of pension funds have suffered.
I was astonished to hear you asking for the Bank of Canada to come to your assistance, given that you sold this paper to government groups, specifically government pension funds. It did not work out, they lost money and you are now asking for state assistance. I find that peculiar.
