I really appreciate the discussion around tourism businesses, because I'm hearing that as well. Tourism businesses—both indigenous and non-indigenous—are really struggling in my riding. Tourism-based businesses are really challenged at this time.

Could you speak to that as well, in terms of those businesses and what kinds of supports they would require to help facilitate them through this time so that we're still seeing them in their communities after COVID ends at some point?
