Thank you. I'd like to thank the witnesses for coming out today.
I was sitting here listening to the witnesses that we had at the previous meeting, and we've listened to you. We definitely have a lot of controversy going on between the groups of people who are appearing as witnesses. A lot of you are saying it's not working. Others are saying it is working. There's little information showing that it's actually working. We're hearing that.
I had a meeting last week in my riding, dealing with tax reform, a round table discussion with about the same group of people we have here, business people. After we had finished our discussion, I turned to the group of businessmen and asked how many of them know about CASL. They said, “What the hell are you talking about, Jim?” There was only one who understood the dynamics of what we're talking about here today. He spends a lot of time on his computer, makes a living off his computer.
I'll throw this to Mr. Messer. What can we do to educate the small businesses out there? The big businesses sitting here today are telling us it's a big problem. Yet when I talk to a group of businessmen, about the same number we have here, they say, “I don't see no goddamn problem. We don't even know about it.” I think we have a problem, because they should know about it.
I wonder if you would answer that, please.
