Thank you, Mr. Shore.
Ms. Santini, Mississauga is one of the fastest-growing cities in our country, and Mississauga Centre, perhaps, especially. During my first committee appearance on this study—it might have been my first question—I recall asking about the importance of ensuring that our system recognizes the inherent value of small businesses.
In the time that I have left, roughly one minute, I'd like to offer you the opportunity to speak to us about the important role that small businesses play in Canada, as well as to help this committee understand why it's so important that any lobbying regime does not become overly onerous for small businesses.
