Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
I have two questions.
First, I would like to come back to the new way of showing how the budget is built. As you probably know, this is very similar to what is done in Quebec.
The government has two fundamental missions: to support the economy and, as you have stated several times, to support jobs. However, based on the new way of presenting the figures and having them speak for themselves, as I would say to my daughters, we are now told that there will be a projected $100‑billion deficit. They may surprise us by announcing a $90‑billion deficit and telling us that they have saved money. So be it.
Nonetheless, from that perspective, how can the Canadian government support its two fundamental missions?
