Thank you, Madam Chair.
I want to pick up on the last point, just paraphrasing you. When you were Minister of Innovation, Science and Industry, you went to see foreign grocers, you told them that we had a competition problem and you asked them to come to Canada. So those people bought a plane ticket, came here, and then told you that they were only interested in shopping centres. They said they could not control their enthusiasm when thinking about opening grocery stores in shopping malls, and that they wanted nothing but stores in shopping malls. Then you introduced your bill, you solved the problem of leases in shopping malls, and you thought that foreign grocers would rush to open stores in Canada. Now you are telling us that, since all this takes time to set up, those grocers have not yet opened stores in Canada.
First of all, that does not make sense as an analysis. Could it be that we still have competition problems in the grocery sector and that we still have five major grocers, including Walmart and Costco?
If there are still competition problems, specifically, what are the next steps for constructive public policy in order to have competition in the retail sector?
