Mr. Speaker, the last budget provided tax relief for small businesses that were spending money to become Y2K compliant. Unfortunately these businesses must do so by June 30, when in fact many cannot get trained individuals until after that date. I would like to know from the Minister of Finance if he will extend the June 30 deadline so those who want to can take advantage of this tax provision.
