Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I want to welcome all of the witnesses here today. This is a very important discussion we're having.
I want to kick things off by getting a few items dealt with off the top, which I hope will enlighten my friends across the way from the NDP.
I'd like to ask the panel what an increase in corporate taxes, an imposition of a carbon tax, and a policy of no free trade agreements would do for your businesses. Would these be helpful of hurtful?
Let's start with Mr. Hébert.
