Mr. Speaker, I would like to congratulate my colleague and those who elected him to Parliament. He does an exceptional job.
I would like him to comment for us on the tax credit that has not been renewed in the Bill C-31. This is the tax credit the NDP proposed in 2011 that stimulates job creation by helping small business with hiring. As the Conservatives should know, when small businesses in Canada do well, Canada does well.
Can my colleague tell us the consequences for small business if this tax credit is not renewed?
