Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I'd like to thank all the witnesses who are with us today. First, I have a question for Mr. Blackburn and Ms. Kozhaya from the Quebec Employers Council.
The pandemic hasn't been easy for anyone. We have had to spend a lot of money. I am still reassured, however, because Canada has the best net debt to GDP ratio in the G7 countries. We also rank very high among the members of the OECD, the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development.
I would like to know your reaction to our budget, which is meant to be fiscally prudent, but which also contains investments in a green transition and innovation, as you pointed out. Are we on the right track?
