Despite reassurances from the government, small business owners aren't any less concerned about proposed taxation changes.
That's according to local MP Dan Albas, who's also the Conservative's Shadow Minister for Small Business.
He says the problem has been two-fold, with people seeing issues in both the details of the tax policies, and the process being undertaken to plan the changes.
He says that's put Liberal MPs in a tough position - some of whom have publicly criticized the plan.
"Credit where credit's due, when people hear exactly what they're saying in their ridings, and then publicly go against their own government, that's a very tough decision. But again, it shows that they're listening and that they want to see change," he said.
"At the end of the day, this country is great because we listen to many voices before a decision is made, and I think that's what they're worried about, is that this is a decision coming from the top."
Albas says he was also disappointed to hear some of the comments coming from the Liberal caucus meeting in Kelowna.
"When the Prime Minister was in Kelowna, the first thing he did was tell his caucus that he's not going to be doing anything substantial - maybe some tweaks. So, to me it sounds like the PM and his team have already made up their decision that this is going ahead, and I think that's really unfortunate," he said.
"Many people are grumbling in their benches, and they're grumbling with good reason."
He says the changes will greatly affect business owners from saving for retirement, properly compensating family members, and even the ability of businesses to get approved for loans.
"Credit unions have told me, that they actually will weigh in tax liabilities when they're going to do a loan," he said.
"So I'm not saying that every single component of it is bad. But what I am saying is that the government has seemed so ham-fisted and (is) not listening to people, and that they just do not seem to want to slow down and have a rational discussion."
The government's deadline for consultation is October 2.
