I believe federal and provincial authorities could help to ensure the survival, competitiveness, and future growth of many small Canadian aerospace firms by implementing actions such as the provision of loan guarantees for small aerospace firms—and in attachment B, you will see a small business act in the States that we're competing against, under which this has already been done in the U.S.; allowing employment insurance recipients to work for small aerospace companies while continuing to receive EI payments; increasing the sole-source limits for government contracts ...[+++] to $100,000 Canadian; shortening the government payment cycle to ten days net, with no early payment penalty; bringing forward the awarding of contracts the federal government had scheduled for release within the next two years, to within the next three to six months; and providing a six-month to one-year moratorium on source deduction GST and PST payments.

To conclude, Mr. Chairman, I would say that there used to be a big debate across the Atlantic about who was subsidizing whom the most; the problem was that in some countries most of the support was provided through government payments, direct income payments or deficiency payments, while in other countries most of the support was provided through what we call market price support, offer-to-purchase programs, high internal prices basically bolstered by import protection.

The AWA recommends considering the following: a no net-loss principle for conservation, especially on federal lands; completing Canada's system of protected areas and conservation lands at all levels of government; finding ways to engage Canadians, particularly new Canadians and youth with wild places and wild species; reform agricultural and energy policies to fully recognize the value of native habitats and the communities, ecosystem services, and biodiversity that depend on them; institute payments for ecosystem services from private and leased public lands through both private markets, such as those being created for carbon credits, and direct government payments.

These recommendations were made in our most recent report, Shifting the Conversation, and they include the following: requiring judges to consider restitution in all cases involving a victim and to state their reasons for not ordering restitution, similar to provisions for the federal victim surcharge; giving victims the right to make an application for restitution and the right to appeal if an application is refused; providing victims with detailed guidelines on how to document their losses for the purposes of restitution; removing the requirement that a restitution amount be readily ascertainable, or allowing a court to order a “to be determined” restitution order if the costs are not fully known at the time of sentencing; examining t ...[+++]he ability of the federal government to deduct restitution awards from federal government payments, such as GST rebate cheques and employment insurance payments; and holding offenders accountable by including conditions to ensure that they fulfill their court orders for restitution and the federal victim surcharges by authorizing the Correctional Service of Canada to deduct reasonable amounts from an offender's earnings.
