It seems to me that it would be a great savings not only to promote Canadian industries, but to dissuade companies from sheltering themselves in tax havens. They wouldn't be allowed to bid on federal government contracts. As a major consumer of goods and services, I think the federal government should look at that really seriously.
Similar to the question about gender analysis, was there any regional analysis to be sure this package of cutbacks didn't impact one region more severely than any other region?
