Let me give you one example that you can draw on. When I was in a previous life at the national round table, we gave to the Department of Finance five or six key indicators that could be used alongside classical economic reports, like GDP up, GDP down, unemployment up, inflation is X or Y. We actually developed a couple of natural capital indicators to start reporting to Canadians on wealth, which heretofore remains outside the traditional economic thinking in terms of how we measure our wealth as a nation state. Can you give me some idea, after 25 years in Finance--which I think is your greatest asset to bring to this job, in my estimation--of how you see that going forward?
