Thank you, Mr. Chair. Thank you to our presenters.
Mr. Simons, congratulations on the success you have had over many decades—centuries actually. We look at Eaton's, Simpsons, and Sears, and the demise of those companies. I would like to ask how you've reinvented yourself.
Thank you very much for opening your first store, your flagship, in Mississauga, Ontario, which is my riding. That's great, given all those jobs you've brought and the investments you've made.
I want to know about what has kept you so successful. How do you work with those small businesses that supply to you? Do you help bring them along as part of your supply chain? Do you provide the resources and the expertise to be able to get them into your supply chain, keep them in your supply chain, and keep them growing?
