Thank you, Mr. Chair.
My question is for the representatives of the Canadian Chamber of Commerce and the Canadian Women's Chamber of Commerce.
We know that the pandemic has been a major blow to businesses and that consumer habits have rapidly shifted to e-commerce. This situation mainly benefits the web giants, and sales taxes still aren't being collected by the Canadian government. These giants don't have to pay taxes or royalties on their revenue. The government had promised to tax them, but it hasn't done so in the past year.
Have your members commented on this matter? Are they outraged by this situation and, if so, to what extent?
