Madam Speaker, I thank my colleague for the question since it allows me to pick up where I left off. I was on a roll and now I can keep going.
In the aerospace sector, adjustments are constantly being made throughout the entire life cycle of an aircraft. Credit for research and development is not adapted to that.
As I was saying, credit for research and development does not cover everything. For example, obtaining a patent and certification and the cost of precision devices that are needed for product development are not covered. In short, the credit is ill-suited.
The emergency wage subsidy is also ill-suited. In June, the finance minister had to adopt it by an order in council. That was done at the very last minute. It is just another sign that the program is ill-suited to our sector.
