There are lots of points in there, Mr. Chambers, so I'm going to start where you began, which was talking about Canada's relative fiscal position in the G7.
The reality is that inflation in Canada is elevated. It's too high, but it is actually lower than in our peer countries. Inflation in Canada is lower than in the U.S. It's lower than in the U.K. It's lower than in the eurozone, yet even though inflation is lower here, we also have a lower deficit than other G7 countries.
Again, I think Canadians expect all of us around the table to have a bit of partisan back-and-forth, and that's why I turn to the international comparison for a proof point, because to me that's about not marking your own homework and about showing where Canada stands relative to our peer countries.
