If there was not a time to undertake public investment with the fiscal capacity of the Canadian government where interest rates are—I think the 10-year yield is at 1% and the long bond is maybe at 2%—I don't know when you would do it, because now is the time: the multiplier, every $1 of infrastructure investment gets you about $1.50 back.
Should we limit the length of time we undertake such an investment to three years? Should we go further out?
You've identified a $25-billion deficit, not on that topic but just to the degree to which we should invest in public infrastructure. Because we all know the Bank of Canada governor has noted that investments in infrastructure enable long-term economic growth.
