Thank you, Chair.
As we discuss this, I personally think, and I think if we polled everybody here too, I think we could all agree, there's a feeling that we have people in charge who are really looking out for the interests of Canada. That's important, because we've all just gone through an election and we've heard some attacks and some really scary scenarios.
I'm going to throw you one, if I could, Ms. Hillman. I'm a free-market thinker. I understand all these concepts. You've reinforced all of my beliefs. What stops this whole process from...?
I remember the days—not to be critical—when we thought we did the right thing when Mr. Chrétien paraded off all the Canadians to China. The end result was that a lot of these industrialists took their shops and put them in China.
What is stopping that kind of movement from happening? I think that's probably the NDP's greatest fear. I'm looking at the industry in Canada. What's to stop us from saying after five years, “My God, what have we done? We've lost all our industry”?
Can you help me, as a free-market thinker, get around that and settle my mind on that?
