Many people at home might be interested to learn that right now at the federal level, we actually spend more on debt servicing than we do for health care transfers or even the military, so it is a sizeable amount. What you're saying is that currently, within the government's own fiscal framework, we are sustainable. However, given the fact that there's no provision in our Constitution for how we handle provincial debt, if there was a default, then I think people would expect the federal government to take that up.
I see we have members from all across the country. Is that something as parliamentarians you believe we should be keeping an eye on even as we speculate on the short-term run of the economy?
