Let me just depart from my presentation for a moment to say that in our organization, the Business Council of British Columbia, we have quite a number of companies based in B.C. that are service producers, including engineering firms, architecture firms, professional service firms, and transportation firms, and they are generating a large portion of their total revenue from selling services to people in other countries.
Je m'écarte un instant de mon mémoire pour vous dire que notre organisation, le Business Council of British Columbia, comprend un nombre élevé d'entreprises provinciales de services, comme des firmes de génie, d'architecture, de services professionnels et de transport. Or, ces entreprises réalisent une partie importante de leur chiffre d'affaires en vendant des services à l'étranger.
