Sure. Of course, the cost depends on the structure that you put on such a benefit. As a starting place, if you imagined sending out $2,000 a month to every Canadian adult, that would be 30 million adults. If you carry the number of zeroes there, that's $60 billion a month. Our GDP is about $200 billion a month, so that's about 30% of GDP just for that income support, before you help out small business, big business, the cultural sector and other sectors. That seems like a lot of money to put in one pot.
