I appreciate that.
I think it's important that when the government has a fairly substantive policy, such as the buy Canadian policy, we need to understand what the cost analysis might be for that if it's moving away from a previous policy, which was low bid.
In your report on the main estimates, you expressed some concern around the debt servicing. There's roughly $523 billion of federal market debt that is coming due by the end of 2027. It's basically at 1%, and current rates are roughly 3%. That's a pretty substantive increase. When you look at the current trajectory of the federal debt and the cost of servicing it—and we're seeing it going from 1% to 3%—what does that look like for taxpayers? What is the implication going to be for the public finances?
