Madam Speaker, we talk about deficits and how we have to think of future generations, and of course that is important. However, when I was growing up, before I even got to school, the Quebec government was investing massively in schools and roads, which meant that when I got to be a certain age to go to school, there was a school for me to go to. Therefore, that deficit, that financing, that spending actually benefited me as a future generation.
The money that we are investing today in the labs in the universities, those labs will be there for my kids if they decide to pursue a career in science.
Could the member comment on how investments made today, even if sometimes a deficit is incurred, can actually benefit future generations?
