Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I'll ask my questions to whoever among Mr. Jeffrey, Mr. Oliver and Mr. Lefebvre wishes to chime in.
Obviously liquidity is a major issue for restaurants in dealing with fixed costs. One recommendation the Conservatives put forward was a refund of GST remittances that have been collected over the past 12 months, which would, it seems, put a lot of cash back into small businesses, including restaurants. It would also seem to be fairly easy to administer and deliver.
Would any of you care to comment on that policy proposal and how it might be beneficial to restaurants in Canada?
