Thank you for the question. I think it has been identified worldwide that Canada is leading the G7, for instance, with our support for higher education, R and D. Certainly as a percentage of our economy, that is the case. We're not standing pat; as a government we're making other investments as well, in world-class research and researchers.
I mentioned the granting councils getting an extra $32 million in Budget 2010. There's the new $45 million Canada post-doc fellowship program. That is a multi-year program--$45 million over five years. That wasn't just a eureka moment for this budget. This builds on previous investments in Budgets 2006, 2007, 2008, where we had an additional $2.2 billion in funding for science and technology. The big bang was Budget 2009. When you added it all up, it was about $5.1 billion in investments, either in capital or people or commercialization projects.
I can talk about Genome Canada. I can talk about RADARSAT for the Canadian Space Agency. I can talk about our investments in medical isotopes and technology clusters. All of these are being invested in right now, and they'll make a big difference in terms of our innovation and competitiveness for the future.
