Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
Madam Minister, I do appreciate your being here tonight. I know it's a long night.
Some of the questions about policy aren't being answered as we'd like, so maybe you can tell us your philosophy about scientists. Is it your contention that scientists are scientists, regardless of where they come from? You have no concerns, say, if a scientist comes from France or China—as we're talking about this at the Canada-China committee—and you believe that these are people are working for the betterment of mankind, or humankind, and will do just that and there's no security concern?
