Thanks again for the question, Mr. Perkins.

I do want to be very clear and assure all MPs and all Canadians that Canada's public finances are sustainable. Canada has the lowest debt-to-GDP ratio in the G7. We have the lowest deficit in the G7. Our public finances are sustainable, as the PBO has made clear.

I am really looking forward to delivering the fall economic statement on Monday in the House of Commons.
