Colleagues, we are going to continue.
A few new individuals have joined us. We have a few new witnesses, so I'm just going to go over the panel again so that everyone is reminded about the witnesses we have with us here today.
We have Philip Jennings, the deputy minister of Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada; Charles Vincent, the senior assistant deputy minister for the industry sector; Stephanie Tanton, assistant deputy minister at Innovation Canada; Denis Martel, director general at Innovation Canada; and Benoit Tessier, the director general in the industry sector.
Colleagues, we will not have opening remarks from our officials. We will go right into our lines of questioning.
Mr. Vis, welcome back to the industry committee. The floor is yours for six minutes.
