In fact, if you look at the guidance we have provided, we have committed to stop buying government bonds once the recovery is well under way.

Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you, Mr. Macklem and Ms. Wilkins for your presentation.
I am just wondering how much of the federal debt the Bank of Canada holds.

You mean the actual number? It is $343,905,000,000 as of about a week ago.

The main source of additions would be the government bond purchase program, and that would be $162,979,000,000. There are also some additions: some treasury bills have been added. Those are very short-term debts, so those are rolling off.

Currently we're at about 30%. Other central banks have issued guidance that if the central bank holds more than 50% to 70%, that could start to impair market functioning. The Federal Reserve has indicated that for them it would be about 60%. We're at 30%, and keep in mind that before the crisis we were at about 15%. We regularly hold some on the balance sheet, but we have quite a lot of room. Something in that range would start to get uncomfortable.

That's correct. What percentage of the debt that you currently hold has short-term or less than 10-year maturity?
