Madam Speaker, I thank my colleague from Courtenay—Alberni for his speech and for his enthusiasm, which is palpable.
What bothers me a bit in this debate, however, is the feeling that several short-term gains are being made, but there is no overarching vision.
Of course, inflation is really high at the moment, which is taking a serious toll. However, high inflation is often followed by a depression and austerity. In that respect, temporary measures have temporary effects, but they can have long-term repercussions.
I would like my colleague to tell us whether the temporary measures are sufficient.
