Thank you, Mr. Chair, and again, thank you, everybody, for being here today.
Before I start my questioning, I do, quickly, want to give a shout-out to Mr. Gibbon, who is in the audience as well. The Heritage Festival is fantastic. Those who aren't from Edmonton definitely have to make a point to come to it. It's one of the most well-attended festivals here in the city over the August long weekend. I look forward to welcoming my colleagues at that time of year.
I want to speak on the competitiveness aspect. Mr. Chair, how do you highlight the competitiveness theme of our trip across the country? You invite two Olympians here to really hammer it home. Quickly, if we could get on record, tell us some of the things that are different about Canada, compared to our neighbours in the south or maybe some other countries, that you've seen in your travels around the world, like things that they're doing right or that we could learn from.
