Finance committee  Thank you very much. Thank you for coming today, and to those of you on the phone. Catherine, it's good to see you again. One of the things you have said, and that has been reiterated by others, is that we really are in exceptional circumstances. This is not something—to your p

Finance committee  Great. Thank you for your patience—I know it's not easy to be outside the room and listening to this without being able to see us all. I'm going to ask you a question around SMEs' options—or optionality, maybe—to apply for exceptions and relief, within tariffs imposed over this

Finance committee  Thank you very much.

Finance committee  A proactive approach, I guess, is what it sounds like. That's good to know, certainly. My colleague asked about the CITT process, and you walked through that. What is a typical time frame this would occur in? Or is there a typical time frame?

Finance committee  I like them both.

Finance committee  Excellent. Thank you. Good job.

Finance committee  Thank you, Chair. Thank you for coming. Just to follow up on my colleague's point, from what year going forward is that information now available? You said five years; so is it 2013, 2014?

Finance committee  But that's five years from today, so from at least 2014.

Finance committee  Okay. The date is important. I want to talk about some of the work you're doing that actually relates to the average Canadian. In my riding we certainly have the community tax program that is used widely, in particular by low-income Canadians and seniors. I'm going to ask a co

Finance committee  Thank you for that. I just returned from three days at the Clean Energy Ministerial, CEM10, which just wrapped up. Twenty-five ministers from around the world came to talk about clean energy, and of course a lot of the conversation was around climate change. As Canada was hostin

Finance committee  Thank you. Apparently I'm out of time.
