I'm a business owner myself.
If I can give an example, and I'm not sure it's an example that's going on right now, but if a program is offered to 500 businesses in the Regina area where I live, in English, and it's the same thing for the francophones, I can tell you there aren't 500 francophone business owners. If it's not offered because there aren't 500 of us, then it's completely different.
