Finance committee  Yes. As a manager, I have to be careful to say yes to that. All the means, and it's going to be on the Internet, it's part of the priority.

Finance committee  Thank you for the question. I wasn't there in May 2013, but I followed the file. It is now under my leadership that we continue working with CRA to have access to this kind of information, and not only that one. We also received another similar request back in November 2012. We

Finance committee  Thank you for the question. It's clearly an interesting issue which is really a hot topic these days if I can say that. We did a report a couple of weeks ago on the labour market assessment. If you want to discuss the temporary foreign workers program a little bit more, I will

Finance committee  Thank you, Mr. Chair. No apology is required. You know that I am very familiar with committee business. It's still music to my ears, and it's a very good introduction actually. Thank you again for the invitation. I am here with my colleagues: Mostafa Askari, who is the assi

Finance committee  Thank you for the question. I would not go that far. The problem is the following. As Mostafa explained, part of the $7-billion amount—about $1.9 billion—stems from additional revenue, especially that from corporations and institutions. Part of the remaining billions was adjuste

Finance committee  We use the multipliers from 2009-2010. Those are the multipliers we currently have, and we will continue to use them in our calculations.

Finance committee  I'll ask Mostafa to walk you through that.

Finance committee  I was expecting a question on western grains and the Wheat Board, but thank you, Mr. Hoback. I'll ask Mostafa to answer that question.

Finance committee  We haven't taken that into account, the CETA, not yet, because we don't have all the details. As you know, because you went through CUSTA and NAFTA, it will take time before you have the real transition. We can estimate some of these measures, but for the moment they are not incl

Finance committee  I want to say two things. I like going to see the dentist, and I still like the atmosphere of parliamentary committees after 25 years. I will answer your question. That chart shows that the period during which individuals are unemployed is getting longer. You can see that drop i

Finance committee  We took into consideration employment insurance as a whole and not just that particular factor.

Finance committee  We did take them into account—not as a specific factor, but as a whole. Basically, our figures cover all those measures, including those applied to seasonal workers. We have no specific measures for seasonal workers. Everything is included in the chart curve.

Finance committee  Exactly.

Finance committee  Your first question was about the jobs. In our model, the net result of the constraints and the expenses that were there for the expansion was that number, but it's true that in total jobs were created. The figures are as of September 2013. Net there were over 600,000 more new jo
