A number of scientists, including those at the Université de Sherbrooke, use RADARSAT images for their research. They are very concerned about RADARSAT passing into foreign ownership. They are wondering whether they will still have access to RADARSAT images under the same terms and conditions that are currently in force. Will the same financial conditions and so forth apply? They are also wondering how the intellectual property arising from their own research will be affected.
Could you provide us with some clarification on these two points?
