Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Good morning, Minister. Welcome to our committee.
In your opening remarks, there was an area that I am seeking your help to help Canadians demystify. You mentioned that there are economic strategy tables created. To average Canadians, if you ask them, “Do you know about the economic strategy tables?”, they're going to say, “Well, excuse me...what?” I understand this is one of the elements of the government's innovation platform. Could you help demystify this, and tell us what they are, what they focused are on and how they're addressing the challenges that the innovation group is facing?
