This new government was elected on the mandate to spend less, invest more, build the strongest economy in the G7 and balance our operational budget in three years. That's exactly what we're doing. On top of that, we're making historic investments in the priorities that Canadians have: infrastructure, housing and the Canadian Armed Forces.
As President of the Treasury Board, I have launched a red-tape review. We've received 500 initiatives from organizations, which means removing barriers, removing overly complicated regulations and streamlining the process to make it easier for businesses to grow and cut their costs.
Further, I'd like to ask my deputy, Bill, to comment on that, please.
