Thanks.
I guess I just wanted to finish off by saying that the federal government could have a very important role to play in helping to level this playing field by making all the services that the Women's Enterprise Initiative has in western Canada available across the country. Currently only Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta, and B.C. have a loan fund to help women entrepreneurs.
While there are organizations in the Maritimes, there is no partner organization for us in southern Ontario, and the organization in Quebec does not receive federal funding. It would be nice if every Canadian woman could access the same services across the country and we could have a stronger national network, because our results are so good in terms of the higher success rates of the businesses. In fact, our loan program actually creates more jobs per thousand dollars' lent than any of the Community Futures or even BDC's programs.
