Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
I want to thank all the witnesses. The testimony we have just heard is truly informative.
Mr. Gander and Mr. Walters, thank you very much. I do not have any questions for you—unfortunately I don't have the time—, but I completely agree with what you said. It is certainly desirable and welcome.
Mr. Doyle and Madam Masuda, konnichiwa.
I represent the area of British Columbia that has the highest concentration of Japanese Canadians, and that's where the Nikkei centre and the Japanese-Canadian cultural archives are found. It's also the area that has the greatest concentration of Japanese language programs.
To what extent have you been in contact with the Nikkei centre to recruit people who speak Japanese and English and would be able to help build your business? To what extent are you contributing to the P.E.I. economy? What's the dollar value generated every year from tourism coming from Japan?
