Mr. Speaker, I have already indicated that the first question was totally erroneous, that there is going to be savings over time.
With respect to the second question that if one privatizes or commercializes there would be a particular savings because people would earn less, we all know that sometimes it works that way but other times it is completely the opposite. In this case we are keeping those programs we need to keep. We are keeping those civil servants we need in order to give the best service to Canadians. In certain cases we are looking at alternatives which is a wise, sensible and sensitive way to proceed.
I am surprised that my colleague is not jumping up and down applauding the government for this wisdom.
