Kinectrics, to make a small correction, was born out of the old Ontario Hydro research division, and it was created with the restructuring of Ontario Hydro around the turn of the century.
You are quite correct. They do have capabilities that overlap with capabilities at CNL. However, what's important to note is that there are very strict provisions in the contract to firewall and manage conflicts of interest. The conflict of interest provisions are such that if there's somebody from Kinectrics who is involved in the work, either they have to recuse themselves or they get firewalled so the information does not leak from CNL to Kinectrics. Our job is to make sure those conflict of interest firewalls are being properly managed by CNL.
