Thank you very much.
My first question is for Dr. Burton.
Dr. Burton, I've had the pleasure of reading a few of your articles, including the one in The Globe and Mail on December 4. It was about the situation between China and Australia. In retaliation, China has imposed huge taxes on barley and wine that have cost Australia billions of dollars.
There are similar situations here, in Canada, such as with Huawei. In addition, Nuctech's contracts with China run until 2023, if I remember correctly.
If Canada puts its foot down, and we stop working in isolation, what could be the consequences—positive or negative—from an economic and national security perspective?
