Thank you very much for the question.
As a company once we got to that big drop, we're now looking for that first entity, whether it's VC or government, to be the first to commit to our moving forward, even with conditions. Nobody wants to be the first person in, and that's the chicken and egg syndrome I mentioned earlier.
Even if the government were to provide and say they will invest or will provide this or that incentive, we still have to do this, this, and this. That's a lot easier than having to go to the market and say, “I have all of this; now are you interested? I think I'll have a better chance of getting the funds I need to move forward.
That's not just within Canada. We are actively searching for funds in the U.S. and overseas. That's what they are looking for also. For us there are a couple of major items left; our permitting process has taken two years. That's Ontario-based, not federal. Usually working with supply agreements is dependent....
Unfortunately, there are a lot of things you would like to be able to do together, but certain things are linear, and financing, getting that first one in is the first step, and then you can branch out, but until you get that one person, you're still in the linear form.
