Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Up until today my colleagues from Manitoba probably though U of W was University of Winnipeg, but I'm glad you've identified the University of Waterloo and the Microsoft presence there with the co-op program that is very successful. Recently Google announced that they're going to have a major presence there as well.
On the Institute for Quantum Computing there, with Professor Ray Laflamme and the Perimeter Institute, that's an amazing story about what Canada is doing in research and development.
What are your thoughts on the recent announcement in March or May of this year on the science and technology strategy? Do you think that will have any impact on some of the challenges you're facing?
Any one of you may answer.
