We will get started with the second panel today. Mr. Rajotte had to step out, so I'll be chairing.
I'd like to welcome all of the witnesses. Thank you for being here today.
I warn you in advance that we are expecting bells to start ringing. That will interrupt this session for a vote, but we'll deal with that when it happens.
Let me just introduce the witnesses.
Monsieur Luc Godbout is here as an individual. Welcome.
The aerospace association is listed on our agenda, but unfortunately they cannot not be here.
From the Canada-Israel Industrial Research and Development Foundation, Dr. Henri Rothschild is here. Welcome.
From the Toronto Board of Trade, Mr. Juan Gomez is here. Welcome.
From the University of Manitoba, John Alho is with us this afternoon.
Welcome, gentlemen. You each will have five minutes to make your presentation. Then we'll begin questions and answers.
Mr. Godbout, would you please begin with your five minutes?
