Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I want to thank all the witnesses for coming.
My first question is for the Calgary Chamber of Commerce representative.
During the latest consultations, many private sector representatives had three requests when it came to R & D credits. Among other things, they asked that expenditures be immediately refundable and not to have credits applicable to future profits. They asked that there no longer be any penalties on eligible expenses when they receive provincial or municipal funding. Finally, they asked us to resolve certain issues in terms of accessibility.
Are you in favour of those requests?
