Thank you.
I would like to echo Mr. Brison's comment, of which I always am supportive, except for yesterday's comments.
Alberta and British Columbia have put in place a trade, investment, and labour mobility agreement, TILMA. I'm certainly a proponent of encouraging its promotion all across the country. It's not perfect, but it's a step in the right direction.
So each one of the associations here that has mentioned that issue, I would encourage you, when you're speaking to our provincial counterparts, to encourage them to take a close look at that and see if that won't work. Just a comment there.
To the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation, Mr. McKee, I'm a big supporter of your organization, probably one of the ones I funnel most of my donations through. It certainly touched our family, and I'm sure everyone around here has someone that diabetes has touched.
Talking about research and development, just recently Minister Goodyear announced for next year $11.7 billion, certainly not just for juvenile diabetes, but for overall research. So your comments about it are encouraging, that we need to keep funding research. It's probably the highest investment Canada has made to date in R and D.
We still agree with your comment that commercialization is what's missing. Is that what is missing in diabetes research as well, bringing it to commercial development?
