Yes, absolutely. For the past three or four years, I think, the Canadian Labour Congress has been calling for using taxes to raise more revenue to make public sector investments in the common good. Again, that's to shift to the economy of the future that we're going to be needing, with green infrastructure, the increases in public transit that the mayors across Canada are calling for, increases in retrofits to make homes energy efficient, and also to train workers to do these types of jobs that we're going to need in the future, and to make sure that workers in industries that are shifting and the industries that are shifting have the support they need to transition to a different kind of economy.
