I feel I could not do justice to the eloquence that Minister Bernier would bring to the specific matter you have raised, so I would commend to all members recent speeches and statements Minister Bernier has made, because he's quite passionate on the issue of reducing red tape and permitting business to be more able to do its job as a job creator.
In terms of red tape and so forth, Minister Clement and Minister Bernier recently—two or three months ago—put forth a government policy in regard to new regs, especially as they relate to burdens on business. The details have to be worked out, but going forward, when governments bring forth regulations that will create a burden on small business in terms of reporting or otherwise, they will have to identify an offsetting instrument so that the overall burden on small business is not increased in terms of the reporting relationship.
