I'm going to stop you there, Mr. Lawton. I have a limited amount of time, and I have another question related to what Mr. Hutchison said.
Mr. Hutchison, you talked about educating businesses. I've worked in banking, in business financing and at Quebec City's chamber of commerce and industry. The committee recently met with witnesses who talked about how difficult it was for a business to be part of the supply chain. One even called it a can of worms, saying that businesses had to be incredibly competitive.
In Quebec, 72% of businesses have fewer than 10 employees. I understand the desire to have a better system for big companies, but how do we help the engine of our economy, small and medium-sized businesses? I repeat, 72% of businesses in Quebec have fewer than 10 employees. Even if they get the education, they may not have sufficient financial resources to meet the requirements.
How can you help the businesses at the core of our economy stay competitive while complying with the law?
