Thank you for the comment.
I would make a couple of follow-up points. One is that, in recognizing the situation that exists, part of what is required is transforming the relationship. That's what we're suggesting, as well, in terms of the fiscal relationship. But it's also about transforming the overall relationship. That will be an important part of the interest, but it will also address the inequity. That's why, in our discussions and in our call for actions, we have suggested, first, that we deal with the gap in education, that we address that gap immediately.
We've also pointed out the other areas within our pre-budget submission that require investments. The amounts of $85,000.... The gap in housing and the need to deal with infrastructure needs are all documented in our pre-budget submissions. We have a series of these.
But transforming the relationship is a key part of it, and introducing stability will also enable us to work in partnership and not simply to be at the table asking for more all the time. I think it is important to do that.
I would like to thank you for the question and to say that education and those key elements will be key investments that will in turn also help Canada. I say this because we do have the fastest growing population and do have a lot to offer in terms of the future labour force, and we are also situated next to most of the resource development opportunities envisioned for Canada over the next 10-15 years.
