Madam Speaker, there is one aspect of the budget on which I want to get clarification. In the fall economic statement, in the 2027-28 business year, the fall economic statement projected a $4.5-billion surplus. Only 140 days later, on March 28, the budget introduced a table for the same year that showed a $14-billion deficit, an $18.5-billion swing. I wonder if the member could give us some details as to why there was the change.
