Mr. MacDuff, you said something that almost made me fall off my chair, which was that, using cost accounting, it is clear that, considering what Canada gives companies touring abroad compared to what other countries provide to their own companies, we are actually being supported by foreign countries. There is more support coming from foreign countries than there is from Canada. So, it is actually very profitable to go abroad. You even said cutting this funding is an economic absurdity. This is an activity that brings in money, rather than the opposite.
If this funding is abolished and you no longer receive any money, the work that you have carried out over the last 36 years of your existence will be in jeopardy, and the work you are now doing in preparation for the next two, three or four years will be obsolete before you have even begun.
Is it your view that these unannounced cuts, for which you were given absolutely no explanation, will put your very survival in jeopardy?
