Thank you, Chair. I'm really glad to be part of this conversation this afternoon.
I really appreciated the opening comments here. I think there's a lot to dig into on this topic. Buy Canadian is a very important priority for our government, and I think it's something that Canadians are talking about quite a bit as well. If I'm being completely honest, it's perhaps a bit overdue.
My first question is for you, Mr. Shimooka. In your opening statement, you talked about supply chains, different alliances and also the importance of building up our own national Canadian capabilities in industrial manufacturing. From your expert research, are there specific sectors that we should focus on?
