Absolutely.
As I mentioned, I think one of the great successes of Canada's research ecosystem has been our ability to create those research environments. Graduate students who are domestic and international are working together in labs and libraries as we speak on some of the biggest challenges facing Canadians and creating new opportunities.
It's key that Canada remains internationally engaged so that we understand the latest global knowledge and the latest advancements and innovations that are happening around the world and so that we have access to the latest understanding. We can see, in areas like artificial intelligence and quantum technology, just how quickly technologies are moving and how competitive that space is to attract top global talent.
Continuing to cultivate an environment, as I said, that is managed and focused on the best and brightest will help all Canadians benefit from the research that's taking place at U15 universities and beyond.
