Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
Thank you to Mr. Giroux and your associates there.
We've seen significant increases in the cost of everything this last year. Food has gone up, and real estate has gone up 20% to 100% depending on what area of the country you live in. Crude oil has seen a 300% increase this year. Wood products like OSB have seen a 500% increase.
We know that we're right around the corner from seeing significant inflation and, with that, there are going to be higher interest rates. How rate sensitive—and you partially addressed it with the $17-billion answer—is our federal debt?
