I'm certain it's going to be among the Reader's Digest most-used phrases of the committee for quite some time.

Thank you very much for the opportunity to speak today.
The only thing I would draw your attention to is this. We've spoken a lot about retail, but I think there's a need for all Canadian businesses to be online. The inspiration extends beyond retail to Canadian businesses in general, which just need to be found more easily—and online is where people are going to find a business, a restaurant, a museum, and entertainment. Whatever you're looking for, it's all done online now, but it's amazing how many Canadian businesses aren't even online. That's something that I think we need to push forward.
