Thank you very much, Mr. Van Kesteren.
Colleagues, we have three motions that we have to deal with today, but I did want to get one question on the record and I would like to get a brief response today, and perhaps our witnesses can follow up.
Mr. Brock, in your presentation you talked about China being a saving nation with an enormous pool of capital available to companies and governments. Then you talked about EDC, and Mr. Hopkins as well talked about the bond issue, which Mr. Van Kesteren just mentioned, but then you said we can't wait to see the first Canadian business raise renminbi funds.
So my question is to ask you to expand on that to say how and then to address the specific issue of whether mainland Chinese investors will be able to invest, not as institutional investors but as investors in issues issued by the Canadian stock exchanges.
This is a question I'll follow up with the Toronto Financial Services Alliance, but I wanted to get you to expand on that as well.
