Sure.
Advantage Canada has a number of different aspects, obviously including investments in science and technology, which I would reiterate to this committee are an important cornerstone of our innovation agenda. Part of our economy is knowledge-based and should continue to be knowledge-based, and that requires continued investment—not only public investment, might I add, but also private investment. How do we create a culture in which our private enterprises invest more in innovation and knowledge work that will stand us in good stead?
I believe we have some ground to make up there, and certainly part of what Advantage Canada has to do is create the environment in which our private companies will invest in innovation and creativity. That's a continual goal. That's why it's important to express it in our various pieces of legislation.
If I can just take the question down a slightly different path as well, one of the reasons we're moving ahead in the budget implementation bill with the changes to the Competition Act, for instance, is to ensure that we have viable marketplaces in this country, that those who are impeding the marketplace are punished, and that those punishments are 21st century in terms of quantum and our ability to pursue them, for instance—just to give you one example.
I think this is all part of how we create a marketplace for tomorrow and how we remain competitive for the future.
