CONT

Les besoins financiers découlant de déficits chroniques, lorsqu'ils ne sont pas compensés par une augmentation de l'épargne dans le secteur privé, rendent le Canada plus dépendant des emprunts à l'étranger, dont le service constitue une ponction permanente sur le revenu national et le niveau de vie futur.
