Maybe where I would start is to say that what I'd really like to see in the report is a desire to start thinking about research funding in a way that is much more evenly distributed across different kinds of research and different kinds of results. That is not to say that it's not important to have research of all types and to be thinking about primary investigator-led research of the kind that is happening at universities across the country and around the world.
I think the problem is that there's not an equal or even a realistic amount of emphasis placed on taking that knowledge and actually disseminating it to the companies, the individuals and the organizations across the country and around the world that can use that research.
I use artificial intelligence as an example. Canada is a leader in the theory behind artificial intelligence, but the application in small and medium-sized companies—and in large companies—is minimal. There is a leap to be made between that investigator-led primary research and how it then expands into the ecosystem. That's really where I'd like to see the committee put some emphasis.
