Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, lately everybody's heard me talk a lot about the NWT Brewing Company in this House, and it's interesting because it's been an opportunity where we can take essentially one company and put it under a microscope and look at the many challenges that it has faced from its conception to now. In its early days it ran into issues with regard to permitting and the like; later on there were concerns around taxation of their product. There has been concern about access as it relates to liquor licencing and having family hours, and then more recently, of course, there has been the decision by the Liquor Licencing Board with regard to having to have the product moved out to the liquor warehouse, have a fee applied, and then licensees could purchase it from there.
These are all the things that are often referred to as, I'll call it bureaucratic barriers and/or red tape. The Premier is aware that we have had times where the CFIB has continually graded us with an F as it relates to our inability to reduce red tape. I would like to ask the Premier: in support of small business and diversifying the economy, how will he break down some of these barriers and improve the government's support for developing small business? Thank you, Mr. Chair.
