Thank you.
I just want to turn back to the small business part of your portfolio, Minister.
A lot of the small businesses in my riding, particularly those in the tourism industry—which is one of the main economic drivers in my part of the country—took out CEBA loans and other loans during the pandemic because they were shut down. They were among the hardest hit.
The rebound for that has not really happened as fast as people predicted, so they're struggling to repay these loans. They've been asking for an extension on the loan repayment so that they can stay viable and keep the $10,000 of the loan that was guaranteed to them if they repaid on time.
These companies are about to go under if they don't get continued help. As things rebound, they will survive but they need that additional help. I'm just wondering what you have to say to them.
