Replying to Steeve Lavoie (Liberal)

“Mr. Speaker, I thank my colleague for her fine speech. I know that she spent a lot of time this summer visiting businesses. I know that she heard from many people about the lack of predictability and the current uncertainty. They need more predictability from the government. Can she share with us what these businesses had to say after she met with their executives this summer, and particularly any comments regarding the predictability that Bill C‑39 will be able to provide?”

This view breaks the statement into its steps and names what each one does.

Mr. Speaker, Claims · 105 wordsevery delay in a decision comes at a cost for businesses. Uncertainty also has a cost for our entrepreneurs. All the businesses I met with in Quebec told me this.¹ They want decisions to be made quickly. When it takes three or four years to make a decision and there is no definitive answer, that has a very clear impact on the predictable growth of our businesses. The aerospace industry, for example, has a great potential for growth in Quebec. However, delays in certain decisions, whether in terms of procurement or starting new projects, have a real cost for businesses in terms of business opportunities.
