Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I am totally in favour of this motion, not only for consumers, but also for small- and medium-sized businesses. In recent years, we've had the opportunity to hear the grievances of the Canadian Federation of Independent Business as well as chambers of commerce across Canada regarding credit card fees, as well as all the other fees and penalties involved. It's a reality that SMEs are experiencing and it's been weighing on their competitiveness for a number of years.
So I fully agree with this motion.
