Thank you to our witnesses. I want to start off with Ms. Wright.
You said something that caught my attention, and that is the funding itself and the fact that you were having to wait for government, for the department, to process your application.
First of all, is this something that the other witnesses have been affected by? Ms. Wright, in terms of dollars and cents, how much of a delay did that have on your program? We're interested in high impact here, and of course you're interested in getting as many dollars as you can, and they are scarce sometimes. What impact did that have on your program? You touched on it. I'd just like to hear from the other witnesses if they have had the same experience.
