Thank you, Chair.
Mr. Elcock, you have a background as a lawyer, and I'm told by biographical notes that you worked also in the Privy Council Office and as a special adviser to the minister for the Department of Energy, Mines and Resources.
We know that China is very interested in resources in Canada, particularly rare minerals, and is interested in other specialty activities. Do you see that as a potential issue and does the Canada-China Foreign Investment Promotion and Protection Agreement present a barrier for us in having some say over what the nature of the Chinese activity in Canada might be for minerals that are very desirable but perhaps in very short supply?
