Thank you.
My comment may be seen to rebut Mr. Marston's. Certainly infrastructure is absolutely critical, but I don't think there was consensus that we need to do a massive new stimulation program. We've made gas taxes permanent; we have the big naval procurement plan; and we have our Building Canada continuing. There was no consensus that now is the time for huge new stimulus spending. I just wanted to make that point.
Mr. Shaw, yesterday we heard a witness, and he talked about how the Government of Canada subsidized the oil companies with a billion-dollar tax incentive. Can you confirm that oil companies pay their fair share of taxes, that they have the same opportunities for write-offs that other companies have, and that there is no special giant subsidy for the oil companies?
