Thank you.
Thank you for your service in this most unique and extraordinary period of time that our country faces and the world faces.
You indicated in your opening remarks that there's a strong relationship between the private sector and your department, and that ISED's ability and willingness to engage with businesses is critical to ISED's ability to deliver on its mandate. Can you expand on this and tell us what changed during the pandemic? For example, the SIF program changed from one mandate to another. If you can explain that, it would be great.
