What's happened in the States is a terrain where prudent bureaucrats dare not venture.
In regard to how we went about picking those four sectors, we had requested the Council of Canadian Academies to do a broad sweep across the country to truly identify where we have research excellence, what the strengths are. They had a grid, and they produced report--which we could share with your committee--that I thought was quite comprehensive in describing where Canada was known to have excellence, where Canada was known to have strengths.
We used that as a platform to start with. That was the reason. You have to start somewhere, and that's where we started.
