Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
I hope Ms. Lappin can hear me properly and that the interpretation is working. I see that it is.
In your presentation and that of Mr. Moores, I have the impression that you came to similar conclusions, that Europe and Asia are ahead of us when it comes to the valuation of critical metals. In your presentation, you said that development was slow in Canada and that this may be due to the very high initial investment costs.
I know that a strategy has been developed by the Quebec government to support the critical metals sector, but there is currently no such strategy in Canada. Should this Canadian strategy, which will have to be created, include a program to access cash to help develop this sector?
