Thank you, Mr. Simard.
I will try to answer these very quickly.
One comment I would have made is that we've given tremendous subsidies to the battery industry, and there was no requirement for domestically sourced raw materials to be used with those subsidies. I would argue that could have been easily done.
For feasibility studies, I have an actionable item. We have a big gap between what's called Canadian exploration expense and Canadian development expense, if you're familiar with flow-through financing. I would add that we should enable the expenditures associated with feasibility studies, environmental baseline studies, indigenous engagement, detailed engineering and piloting. Those should all be allowable Canadian exploration expenses to help companies navigate the feasibility process.
We receive funding primarily from the U.S. Department of Defense to fund our feasibility study, but we were in a period when the markets were effectively closed for five years, and we didn't advance our project because we just couldn't raise money to do those studies. That has been resolved from the government support, which we appreciate both from Canada as well as from the U.S.
