Mr. Speaker, I compliment my colleague for his maiden speech in the House of Commons. It was well put and very thought provoking.
We know how important the information highway is and will be for all of Canada in order to develop our educational resources and our health resources. I wonder if my colleague would mind spending a few moments to tell the House, and through the House the rest of Canada, how the information highway that he envisages will assist the small and medium sized businesses in this country in which we have all conceded the jobs that Canadians so sorely need are going to be developed.
The question is how would the information highway assist these small entrepreneurs in order that they may benefit from this remarkable technology?
