So you get a sense that we've just been stumbling our way to this point.
The alarms have been sounded. There is a well-known problem with productivity. We know that the growth in labour productivity in Canada is at the bottom of the OECD, and it's been there for a decade. Under this government, we've seen no improvement in this important area.
What else can you say to the urgency of the problem? We had testimony at this committee that the productivity crisis in Canada and the affordability crisis are the same thing. We don't have wages and employment income keeping pace with costs.
Is there anything you can add to the urgency on this?
