Thank you.
I'm pleased to be back with you all.
Good morning, Mr. Côté.
As I said, I found out that you were here when I arrived at the meeting. I really wanted to ask you a few questions. The summary of your paper is quite concise. Indeed, we can't cover an issue of this nature in five minutes.
In general, I don't agree with your findings. I think that you know this.
However, you raised some issues. How far should the government go into debt? How many services should be added? Where do we draw the line? Sooner or later, when we have a credit card with no spending limit, we keep racking up the charges. At some point, this produces the exact opposite effect of what you're saying. We'll just have a government and we won't have a country anymore. Where do we draw the line? When I listen to you, I'm honestly afraid that some politicians will decide to give everything to the people so that they just need to wait for the government to do everything for them.
