Thank you very much, Madam Chair.
At the root of the issue of innovation, or having somebody develop the next great idea, is that you've got this person who goes through elementary school and high school, a brilliant person who goes off to university, and let's say he or she goes off to the University of Waterloo and does four co-op terms. Then comes the decision, “What do I do?”
Nine times out of ten, the choice is to take the highest-paying job and go do it. They don't take the entrepreneurial approach of living like a university student for five more years to develop their brilliant ideas. That's part of the problem with what we're facing, not just here in Canada, but around the developed world. I'm quite certain of that.
So how do you turn the tide? Do you have to go back to the ministry of education provincially and try to re-establish the pride in entrepreneurship? What do you do with that? That isn't a silver bullet, but that's one of the pillars.
Yes, Mr. Holbrook.
