I'd like to acknowledge that program, which has now moved from a pilot phase to a more permanent program, and acknowledge the federal government for recognizing the research that can take place in colleges.
We're all familiar with research that happens in universities. It's very important and needs to continue and be supported.
In colleges our approach is much more applied. It's about solving a real-world problem in business and industry. That project itself was one where our students had a chance to work with a local company that needed to retrofit their engine to fit into their existing chassis to meet emission requirements for the U.S. that came into effect last January. The exciting part of that initiative was that our students had a chance to be front and centre in that project and worked directly on a leading-edge, new technology, and they were very proud of that. We are now graduating students who have had a chance not just to learn in a classroom but to learn directly with industry. Those people are going to be much more valuable in industry because of that innovation and that critical thinking they had to go through to solve that problem and to solve the problem for industry. It's a great example of the kinds of things that can happen in colleges and technical institutes.
