Pauline Rochefort at the Government Operations and Estimates Committee

Thank you, Mr. Chair.

I thought I would pursue the same line of questioning as my colleague Madame Jansen, if I may. Could you answer with a yes, a no or maybe a very short reply, if that's appropriate?

Does this policy give a clear and measurable advantage to companies with a real footprint in Canada? Do businesses that invest here employ Canadians and contribute to local economies?

Please answer with a yes, a no or a very short answer.
