It's such a pleasure to be here in Whitehorse. It's my first visit. Unfortunately, we'll not be here for very long, but I do hope to come back for a more extended period of time.
My first question is to Ms. Babcock.
As you know—and you came out in support of this earlier—our government is committed to balancing the books. Some have come out in favour of raising taxes, of increased deficit spending. In your opinion, what would that do to the Canadian economy at large, and to your members in particular, if we were to go down that latter road?
