Thank you.
First of all, commenting on the starting point in your question, we are clearly seeing the benefits of investing in Canadians. It's quite clear that what we move forward on, in terms of putting more money in Canadians' pockets through tax reductions for middle-class Canadians and an increase in Canada child benefits, actually put more disposable income in families' hands. That has served as an important part of the increased growth we've seen in our economy.
Our plan, which was to have confidence that Canadians would invest in our economy by taking that money and helping their families, has worked. We know, as you say, that we now also need to be assuring that the long-term future of our country is successful. That means investing in innovation, in making sure we have the kind of research and development going on that will lead to future success, and making sure that Canadians have the kinds of skills they'll need for jobs of the future.
What we saw in budget 2017 were significant investments in Canadians, in innovation through superclusters, and in putting universities, leading businesses, and small businesses together to find ways for us to create even more advantage in already strong sectors. That will be our continuing approach, thinking about how we can help with the R and D and how we can prepare Canadians for the jobs of the future. That's going to be how we'll make sure this success that we've seen is continued for the next generation.
