Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, during committee of the whole yesterday, the Honourable Joe Handley made a comment. I pull it out of the unedited Hansard. It refers to the debt wall, which is something I have questioned him about previously.
A question was asked of him during the opening comments to the budget about the debt wall. Mr. Handley's response was, and it refers to new dollars:
"...already seeing a turn-around. A little bit of the population growth and so on. But if we see no increase at all, then we would hit our maximum within two years. Within two years, we would be there, and quite possibly within 18 months. That is an estimate because of course, things will change."
What I would like to know from the Minister is, what has changed from the previous Session, when I asked questions and the Minister responded to me that we were looking at the debt wall within less than a year if things did not change. What has changed since the previous Session to now? Thank you.
