Thank you all for being here with us today.
As Dr. McCauley said, this is kind of an exciting moment when we're getting to talk about a new way of funding science in Canada, and, hopefully, a better way.
I'm going to turn to you, Dr. McCauley, to try to expand on some of the four points that you mentioned, especially regarding the governance piece, because I think that's critical, off the top.
You mentioned that there should be voices from all sectors and all actors. How do you see the scope of that? We will have to maybe balance the size of a board, for instance. How do we get those voices heard in there? This is what I've heard from some groups; their main concern was they had felt, whoever they were, that their voices weren't being heard in the previous system, and they wanted to be part of this new body.
