Thank you to all of our witnesses this morning. I very much appreciate the commentary.
I want to ask the same question to a few of you at the start. Perhaps I could start with Mr. Lavoie.
The effective tax rate by 2016 for small business people for new investment will be 9.1% in Canada. That compares with 31.7% in the United States at the same point in time and with 26.4% in Germany. Those are considered strong economic players in our global economy. How is that rate structure going to impact and perhaps help Canadian business?
