Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you, Mr. Minister and staff, for being here today. It is appreciated.
If you go back to the election in 2015, I think we were the only party not making the false promise of a balanced budget. If any of those parties had been elected, there would be no new money for the RCMP. We're fortunate to be in a position in which we can fund some of these policies and this great police force.
On the RCMP, I think there is a request for $76 billion towards the shortfall in the disability insurance plan. Can I get some more details on that? Will that amount put it into surplus? How big is the deficit on that?
