Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
I thank the witnesses for being with us, because it's important to talk about how we're going to shape Canada's economy to be successful on the international stage. We don't want to lag behind.
There is an enormous transformation of all the world's economies. The strategic innovation fund and the net zero accelerator are important funds to kick-start and turn the wheel or the tiller to really steer Canada's industrial sector towards transition and success in the economy of tomorrow.
Mr. Bilodeau, thank you for being with us, as well as all your colleagues. I'd like to ask you a few questions about this global race for clean technologies. Can you explain how the net zero accelerator is helping to position Canada on the international stage?
