I'll jump in here.
I agree with what the first two panellists or witnesses have said. The tax credits and the production support structures are very important for defining the return on investment on these projects so they can move forward and attract investment. I would add, though, that all of the companies we work with are earlier-stage companies, and access to capital is a significant challenge for them. When you're trying to build larger, expensive facilities that could cost tens of millions to hundreds of millions of dollars to build, access to capital for early-stage companies is a huge challenge.
The opportunity to obtain funds through things like the Canada growth fund is important to that sector as well, but access to funds through the Canada growth fund is not sufficient. There needs to be clarity in what the return on investment will be. That's better defined or can be defined through tax credits and production credits.
