Good, thank you.
I remember living through those days, having come from part of that industry. I came from the retail side of that industry, and clearly it was a tenuous time. In my case, my own manufacturer had gone out of business or was on the verge of serious trouble.
You refer in your report to the complexity of trying to keep these businesses together and the impact that they would have had on our economy.
It's been stated that as many as 500,000 jobs were kept intact, if you look at the union workers and manufacturing, the parts companies and suppliers, the dealers and all of the other ancillary industries that were dependent on that industry. They were kept whole because of what this government, the Ontario government, and the U.S. government were able to produce.
I wonder if you would comment, sir, on the outcome of these negotiations and the placements of these moneys and what would have happened to our economy and to this country if the government had not contributed to this fund.
