Great, and thanks very much.

I'll begin with Mr. MacKay.

One of the aspects of the study that I don't think we've touched on as much is the ability of companies based in small communities to take part in the economic benefits of the so-called smart economy.

Mr. MacKay, could you elaborate on some of the challenges that you, with a small-town business, face in trying to take part in the smart economy, and maybe suggest what the federal government could do to assist companies trying to grow in this industry?
