Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you to the witnesses for staying with us for the second hour.
Ms. Liu spoke earlier about productivity and the challenges we face. Another aspect of that is investments into the IT sector. Currently Canadian businesses are only spending about 58% of what their counterparts in the United States spend in the IT sector. Of course, this is a major barometer for productivity and investment and innovation.
I'd like to know what in the budget is actually seeking to correct that, to bridge that gap in terms of IT sector funding and business.
