Thank you for your question.
Indeed, Quebec continues to work in partnership with the pharmaceutical industry. It is precisely why slightly less than 50% of all Canadian research is done in the province of Quebec.
With respect to what the federal government can do, I believe that there are three factors that can encourage company heads to invest. Firstly, market access can be facilitated as to ensure that drugs are made available quickly. Secondly, the tax credit regime for research can be modernized. In addition, there is the matter of intellectual property, which definitely falls under federal jurisdiction. As an example, we are the only country to not have the right to appeal decisions.
So those are the three things that Canada could address to improve our international standing.
