I'm delighted to start again, Madam Chair. It's nice to know that my colleagues are listening to me.
Ms. Johnston, let's be honest. In October 2022, the federal government completely overlooked colleges, CEGEPs and polytechnics when it created the advisory panel on the federal research support system. No member of your institutions sat on this panel.
Today, I want to hear your thoughts on this and your hopes for future representation in the new capstone research funding organization announced in the 2024 budget.
