Thank you for the question.
In developing our cost recovery proposal, we have given significant thought to the impact on small business. We understand that a large percentage of manufacturers that market natural products in Canada are small businesses. We estimate that it's at least 60% of them. In our cost recovery proposal, we've put forward mitigations in terms of the impact on those businesses. We included a 25% to 50% reduction in the proposed fees, as well as a first submission from any small businesses being at no cost.
