They should listen to people who do understand small business. Let me quote what Jay Myers, of the Canadian Manufacturers &amp; Exporters, said. He said:</p>\n<blockquote><p data-HoCid=\"3846281\" data-originallang=\"en\">The Small Business Job Credit will help a powerhouse \u2014 the thousands of small businesses \u2014 of the Canadian economy become more competitive.</p>\n</blockquote><p data-HoCid=\"3846282\" data-originallang=\"en\">Unlike the NDP, we will continue to keep taxes low to create jobs and we will also create opportunities for Canadians.</p>",
        "fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"3846279\" data-originallang=\"en\">Monsieur le Pr\u00e9sident, les Canadiens savent qu'ils sont mieux servis par l'actuel gouvernement conservateur.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3846280\" data-originallang=\"en\">Les n\u00e9o-d\u00e9mocrates ne comprennent vraiment pas les petites entreprises. Ils devraient \u00e9couter ceux qui les comprennent. Voici ce que Jay Myers, de l'organisme Manufacturiers et exportateurs du Canada, a dit:</p>\n<blockquote><p data-HoCid=\"3846281\" data-originallang=\"en\">Le cr\u00e9dit pour l'emploi visant les petites entreprises aidera le moteur de l'\u00e9conomie canadienne \u2014 c'est-\u00e0-dire les milliers de petites entreprises \u2014 \u00e0 devenir plus comp\u00e9titif.</p>\n</blockquote><p data-HoCid=\"3846282\" data-originallang=\"en\">Contrairement \u00e0 ce que ferait le NPD, nous maintiendrons un faible taux d'imposition afin de cr\u00e9er des emplois, et nous cr\u00e9erons des d\u00e9bouch\u00e9s pour les Canadiens.</p>"
