If I could jump in, I'd love to add the importance of supply chains. For manufacturing, especially in a North American context, but now more and more so with Europe, the supply chains are integrated, with parts moving back and forth in the production of final goods.
If there's any disruption to that, it would run into the same existential threat that our sector had with NAFTA negotiations when the outcome of where those negotiations were going was questionable. It's not good for business. It's not just the trade that happens, but it's the movement of goods between the countries. It's important to maintain that access uninterrupted.
In terms of SME supports, as I mentioned, we have excellent programs that Paul touched on, from the various agencies that are dedicated to this. The issues comes when nobody knows about them in the community. Think about it from a business perspective. If you're an SME, you're not sitting around saying,“Gee, I wonder what the government has to offer me.” You're thinking, “I will talk to my accountant, I will talk to my lawyer and I will talk to my staff to try to get ideas.” It's not a default way of thinking to wonder what the government has.
That's where we need to bridge those two solitudes really. As I said, trade associations are perfectly positioned to do that type of work to help out.
