Thank you for the question, Mr. Chair.
I think the short answer is, yes, where it makes sense. We're talking about a lot of technologies. We're talking about a lot of minerals. Some countries have them; some countries don't. Some countries have industrial competencies that others don't. I don't think the answer is “everyone for himself”. We can benefit from trade and collaboration, but it does seem to me that having industrial competencies and serious supply chains that are not dominated by or run exclusively through China is a worthwhile goal.
As we argue here in the United States, this doesn't mean that everything has to be produced in the United States, but if you're going to be producing it overseas, you could do it with U.S. investors, Canadian investors and other western investors. There are multiple ways to be involved in a supply chain that is not just domestic production.
