I understand that there is a tendency to look towards the English world but sometimes you might find in the French-speaking world some institutions that have as much expertise in very specific areas like it is the case of the French in the field of research. The Institute Armand-Frappier is located in Laval and its operations can be sustained over a long period, it has water and oxygen reserves and the capacity to produce vaccines. It has relationships with other international institutions. We shall go to visit it. It is not far from Ottawa. It is only a two hours' drive.
