Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you all for coming here. It's been a great experience. We've certainly heard some interesting testimony.
Mr. Carr, you presented quite an astounding statistic. You said, “A recent U.S. study found that the fastest growing 1% of businesses are responsible for 40% of job creation, while the fastest growing 5% of U.S. firms account for nearly 70% of all...new jobs.” That's an incredible statistic. It would certainly be of interest, I think, for us to maybe further investigate that and maybe dig down on those numbers, because they certainly do say something.
My question—some have alluded to this as well—is do you suggest that we should possibly be targeting those companies, and governments should maybe assist those in funding, if they are indeed the ones that are doing the hiring?
