Our position on this, as we have said a number of times, is that we are in favour of exploring other avenues first. However, as far as we are concerned, one thing is clear: enhancements must be made to pension benefits for all Canadians. Of course, there is a cost attached to that, whether we are talking about private or public plans. We firmly believe that improvements are needed and that it is well worth investing additional monies in this in order to provide greater pension security. For me, that is quite clear.
