Thank you for that, and thank you for that clarification.
Mr. Smith of the Calgary Chamber of Commerce, it's an interesting discussion here. We're talking about rural Canada, and at the same time you're talking about more urban Canada.
One of your recommendations was that there be a bandwidth approach to government spending, and that it be tied closely to population and real GDP growth and inflation. Our job, as government and as parliamentarians, is to try to find balance with legislation and balance within this budget. The difficulty with that, I believe, is that it would tend to benefit more populous urban centres than rural centres.
Do you want to comment on that?
