Our members are small and medium-sized businesses. Every day in the past year they've had to make extremely difficult decisions on employment, on managing their business. If they don't, they go out of business. They don't get money thrown at them because they were mismanaged companies.
We support, and many of our members are members of, the CFIB. They work hard. I talked to one of our members last week in northern Ontario. She's working 70 to 75 hours a week. She's had to lay off four employees. She doesn't know what's going to happen to the economy up there.
All we're suggesting is that the government has to make the same kinds of difficult decisions across the board. Yes, there are many professional people who should be well paid. Do you need as many? That's my point.
