Thank you, Minister, and thank you to the officials from Global Affairs Canada for joining us here today.
I've heard from many stakeholders and they're looking forward to this. They know this agreement will provide them that basis to make investments in Ukraine and to make investments in Canada, so we can continue to grow industries in both of our countries. Whether we're talking about clean technology or the environmental impacts that businesses can have, I think this agreement really strives to promote that.
Minister, when you introduced this bill, you also mentioned your intention to lead a business delegation to Ukraine. I know those trade delegations and business delegations that are sent abroad are very impactful and very resourceful for many businesses. Could you share more of your hope of what impact leading a business delegation to Ukraine would have?
