I picked that comment from the summary of recommendations. I looked at it very briefly. There's no specific comment I can make on that, other than to try to find a way—if I could answer it—to have the three levels of government looking at what we do, individually and collectively, to make it more attractive for business to stay in this country, whether in Ontario or other provinces, and to attract new investment into this country.
If I can just give you two quick examples that pertain to Smiths Falls, we have a small company in Smiths Falls called GH Metal. They're doing a small expansion right now of about 5,000 square feet and will add 50 to 75 more jobs, which is like a new industry coming to Smiths Falls, similar to what Mayor Fenik mentioned about Albany. However, this company is being wooed by New York State to move there. This company in Smiths Falls—and I don't want to jeopardize their success going forward—produces all of the mailboxes for Canada Post across this country. We're proud to have them in Smiths Falls. They also produce mailbox paraphernalia for 44 other countries around the world.
However, there's an opportunity coming up where that business arrangement will be reviewed in the next little while. So I'm hoping that's something the federal government can look at with policy to say it would be advantageous to keep those types of business entities in this country—going through the competitive process as well.
If I could just add one other example, we have another company in Smiths Falls called Wills Transfer, which to date has been taking finished goods from companies like Hershey's, Shorewood Packaging, and Stanley Tools, to give three examples, and now they've had to diversify their approach because the level of business for them has dropped off. So rather than taking goods to markets across Canada and the United States, as they did previously, they're now picking up finished goods in the port of Montreal and delivering them back into our communities.
That's what's happening in our economy.
