I think incentives need to be created. Right now, researchers are acting a bit like SMEs—in other words, they are picking and choosing what they work on. That's the way our system is designed. So there is no incentive for them to commercialize their research or to use Canadian firms. If a foreign firm wants to buy all the patents of these researchers, there is totally passivity.
However, I don't know of any country that innovates properly while thinking like that. All the countries that have been successful in growing their innovation sectors have cultivated research and development in universities so that it gets passed on to firms. So very strong institutions, incentives and intellectual property policies are necessary, and I don't think we have those right now.
