I've been in business for 30 years, but I have unfortunately never had the pleasure of working with the BDC. However, I have worked with Economic Development Canada, or EDC, and with Investissement Québec, among other organizations. The reason why I have never knocked on your door is very simple: I always thought you were there for big businesses.

I get the impression that there has been a change of direction in the last few years at the BDC and that it is closer to small and medium businesses than it used to be.

Am I mistaken about that?
