Last year, the mining industry alone put about $2.5 billion into the Canadian economy. The oil and gas industry put nearly $50 billion into the Canadian economy as far as investments go.
We are talking about a sector that, right now, is 1/25th the size of the oil and gas industry in Canada as far as this economic investment into Canada is concerned. In addition, $400 million of that was a gift from the federal government in the form of investment tax credits, which go to rich people. People in the top marginal tax bracket are the ones benefiting from this.
In that respect, we're really talking about—give or take—$2 billion of private sector activity into the economy. It's $2 billion versus $50 billion.
Do you see now why there's a bit of a disconnect in why you think this is going to replace Canada's biggest economic engine?
