Finance committee  Yes, we do, and we identify those that are like the green infrastructure, and so on, with great difficulty sometimes, to be honest.

Finance committee  There is probably no limit to including all these topics. There is probably a limitation in terms of resources and time. Already, you've raised the issue of infrastructure. Of course, two years ago in the EFO, there was no infrastructure program, or not as detailed as this one. W

Finance committee  We certainly do it. As I said, it's a matter of having the proper resources. I'll give you an example. We did a study last year on spending on education in first nations. That was independent, as Mostafa said. We're working right now on the water supply in first nation reserves.

Finance committee  Thank you. In the first year of the infrastructure program, only half found its way in terms of spending. There were multiple reasons for that. One was the problem of allocating the money to the provinces and negotiating all of the.... That was one of the situations, and now the

Finance committee  Thank you for the question. That is not part of our forecasts. We have noticed, however, with regard to infrastructure spending—and this is getting away from social inclusion—that the goal in the first two years was to generate economic growth. My colleague Jason Jacques might w

Finance committee  Thank you for your question. I will ask Mr. Scholz to answer.

Finance committee  Thank you, Mr. Chair. I never refuse to answer parliamentarians' questions. Next Wednesday, in six days, I will publish a discussion paper with information for parliamentarians and their staff, specifically about the reform proposed in Bill C-44. This paper pertains not so much

Finance committee  Thank you for the question. We produce this report twice a year for this committee, pursuant to one of the motions it adopted. Our role is of course to serve committees and parliamentarians. If the motion is still in effect in the next session of Parliament, we will certainly re
