Mr. Speaker, I can understand the frustration of the official opposition, when the Government of Quebec has refused to work with the Government of Canada to help small and medium size businesses.
If the Bloc Quebecois were following the program, it would know that, when I made a presentation before the Standing Committee on Industry, I had the opportunity to provide a rather detailed progress report on the program.
It would also know that, at the time of that presentation before the committee, we also announced a loosening up of the criteria in order to include professionals.
This good news is proof that the government is attuned to the public and wishes to serve its interests.
