I listened to the interpretation, and I think I understand your question.
It's quite easy, actually. There are patent registers, and companies search those databases. They are in contact with researchers, so they can see what exists in Canada. We are talking about big companies like Google. In the field of artificial intelligence, the players are Google, Apple, Uber and so forth. They are highly sophisticated. They make small investments in research and have numerous contacts in the academic community. Since these are major companies and they have access to the databases, they can find us.
Small Canadian companies have a harder time. Yes, all the information is out there, but they don't have the same resources to find out about the various patents or as much money to buy them.
