Thank you very much.
I want to thank the witnesses appearing before us today.
I am the member for the riding of LaSalle—Émard, which is located in southwestern Montreal. As you know, Montreal was a hub for pharmaceutical research labs. Unfortunately, over the past several months, we have seen many research centres close. Many researchers and families have lost high-quality jobs. Obviously, these job losses trouble me a great deal, and I am told that Canada is no longer an attractive destination for pharmaceutical research and development investments. Is this true and, if so, why?
Would you like me to repeat that?
