One of the things that happened at our pre-budget hearings is we had a number of people talking to us about a figure that was thrown out. It was $500 billion of business capital that was sitting. Nothing was happening. Part of the pre-budget was whether we're going to have an austere budget or whether we're going to have an investment budget. With the bond rates as low as they are, would this not have been a good time for this government to use their borrowing power to start addressing the Federation of Canadian Municipalities' deficit in infrastructure, which is around $122 billion?
