Thank you very much, Mr. Chairman.
I'm sorry that we have so many witnesses jammed into what really is a very small time, but I'd better get started because I only have seven minutes.
Let me ask you, Mr. Neatby, to start off with. You talked about the need for public support for what you're doing particularly in terms of capital markets and confidence in the capital markets. What do you see this as meaning? What are the issues in terms of competition for Canada with companies like those in Australia? How critical will this be? What do you see developing? Where is investment going at this point and how difficult is it for Canadian companies?
