Thank you, Mr. Robidoux. I think that's an important point to make.
Clearly, we've come out of the two- or three-year decline in 2007, 2008, 2009, which was very challenging. As our economy recovers, it's important that we recognize that our economy is strong. It's not without its challenges in the future, and we want to make sure we have our eye on the ball, but I think your point is well stated: it's showing good signs and signals that the recovery is still under way.
According to the OECD—you talk about the G–7—Canada's total government net-to-GDP ratio stood at 34.5% in 2012, which was by far the lowest of our G–7 partners. Could you comment on the factors contributing to that, particularly when we look globally and we see debt issues that are of concern on the horizon in other countries?
I don't want to focus on them, I want to focus on us, but I get the impression from this information and this data that we're in pretty good shape.
