Thank you very much, Madam Chair, and good evening.
Last week we had Governor General David Johnston, and today we have two distinguished persons, including Mr. McDonald in person. I think it's quite an honour for our committee and a testament to our clerk and analysts for getting such top-quality people to come out to this study.
First, there's been a great discussion here tonight, but could you give me an indication of how SNOLAB works financially? I know that there are financial contributions from the federal government and also the provincial government. If there are projects or studies that want to be conducted, do they pay a fee to the SNOLAB to be able to have the right to practice there, or does the SNOLAB welcome people to do the research there? How does that work?
