Thank you.
Now, northerners have long stated that research in the north should be driven by northerners and for the benefit of northerners. The headquarters of this new organization will be in Cambridge Bay, Nunavut. The mandate of this organization is to enhance Canada's knowledge of the Arctic in order to improve economic opportunities, environmental stewardship, and the quality of life of northerners and indeed all Canadians.
How do you feel that CHARS, a world-class research station, will be able to increase the direct participation of northerners in Arctic research?
