But our central bank doesn't have any gold. Who thought that was a good idea? I don't know, but they decided to solve that a couple of years ago. And now we are in a very bad situation because... I believe that, you know, the role of the U.S. dollar will be very different. Yes. Something will happen to solve your problem about, you know, the manufacturing sector.

Yeah, the deterioration is coming and it's happening right now. So it's a question of time. But I understand that President Trump wants to do the transition, but it will hurt. It will be difficult. Yes, it will. And I agree with him about his end goal to have manufacturing sector back in the US. I want the same in Canada. And so we must have real good economic policies.

And the way to solve that, we have our Bank of Canada. did the same thing like the Fed during COVID-19. We printed a lot of money. Now we have that inflation. And I'm the only politician who's saying, you know, we need to have a zero inflation target with the Bank of Canada. Our Bank of Canada, the... as a target of 2% inflation every year. 20% inflation, Tucker, is bad. 2% inflation is bad.

We need to have zero inflation. Like that, everybody will keep their purchasing power. And if you want to have that, you need to have a balanced budget.

That's our proposal for Canadians to have a better and a more productive economy. Poliev won't speak about that. Carney won't speak about that. But we need to tackle that. President Trump is doing that right now. He's trying to do that right now. There's a cost to that, but at least he's not kicking the can down the road like everybody did before him.

Yeah, but that's what happened after the Second World War. In Canada, you know, we had in the 1940s, we had 10 years of inflation to pay for the debt that we had after the war.
