Thank you, Mr. Chair, and thank you to the witnesses for coming today.
I want to zero in on two facts that we've heard today but also heard throughout the testimony.
First, as we heard today, Canada's job creation record is very strong. I believe it has had one of the strongest job creation records in the developed world since the global recession in 2009. Second, I think per capita we have the strongest gaming industry in the world. We have these two positions of strength in a sense, and the reason you're here today is that we have to come up with innovative solutions to ensure we maintain the momentum we have in that industry.
Mr. Conrad, you spoke for a little and listed at a high level some of the things the government is doing to maintain that strong job creation record. Maybe you could drill down a little more on some of the things that I think.... The job grant would be a good place to start, a little description of how that works and how industries like this would be able to benefit from that specifically.
