Minister, I was very impressed with the recognition by the government that more money is needed throughout the rest of southern Ontario as well as eastern Ontario. We all know the economic challenges that rural eastern Ontario is facing. So thank you for that.
One of the comments you made in your opening statement was that “Our budget decisions flow from Advantage Canada, the long-term plan for the Canadian economy that we introduced in 2006”. You further went on to talk a little about building a more competitive business environment. Can you expand a bit on that for us, please?
