I want to talk to you a bit about partnerships. We've talked about them in the presentations. I'm going to ask Mr. Ferguson to chime in on this as well as Mr. Moore.
The thing that struck me about this was some of the ozone monitoring.
Mr. MacLean, in your answer, you also said that a lot of our equipment is still travelling on other country's satellites. So in fact they are using our equipment to monitor these types of things. It seems to me we're still playing a leadership role in that.
I take the next point from your comments, where it says:
If Canada wants to take fuller advantage of some of the more than 250 satellites that will be launched by space nations in the next decade, many of them capturing images over Canada....
So truly this whole mapping and information is going to be an international thing that we're all participating in, and it's a great opportunity for us to all share the cost as well.
How would that model work in terms of these partnerships? And I'll take it down to the next level in Canada, to Mr. Ferguson's...the spatial data warehouse in Alberta. They seem to be able to bring all these disparate pieces together. So how can we build a partnership model with other countries that makes sense economically? And how do we then extend that into something like an Alberta model for Canada so that we have the best use of our information?
