Thanks, Mr. Chair.
My question is to Mr. MacDonald.
I find it a bit rich that the government members are pressing charities and non-profits to make sure that every cent is well spent, and the federal government is shovelling money at the banks saying, “If you're indulging in overseas tax havens, you're still eligible for corporate bailouts with public money.” I think that's a bit rich, and it's an important comment.
Very simply, if the charity and non-profit sector does not receive the $6 billion, what are the impacts; and with that money, what are the actual positive ramifications for the Canadian economy and Canadian society?
