Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
I'm pleased that universities are centres of conflicting thought so that people can explore lots of different ideas.
We had Carlo Dade here, senior fellow, School of International Development and Global Studies, from the same institution as you. Mr. Dade told us, in his comments, that Canada is way far behind in this whole initiative, that actually USAID and the U.K. have been doing this for quite some time and that Canada is very late to the table on this initiative. So it's interesting to have the diversity of discussion.
Mr. Shariff, I'm very interested in your comments about the maximizing of multiplier effects. We often talk about trickle-down effects, and I think that's what you're looking at with some of the initiatives your organization has taken. You talked about economies being interdependent, that one initiative can create a multitude of other impacts. You talked about the mobile phone company and you talked about Roshan.
I'd really like to know more about the agribusiness and the tourism that you talked about in your new business models. How are those creating those ripple effects in the economy that are allowing other people to start their own businesses, for instance? Can you talk about those?
