Thank you so much, Mr. Chair. Thank you for the warm welcome to this committee. I certainly look forward to participating.
Thank you to the witnesses for being here.
Ms. McCuaig-Johnston, you referred to our government's policy in terms of what we've done to date. You said you would perhaps like things to speed along a bit faster.
One thing our government has said has been to our funding agencies. These are agencies that we fund that then go on to fund research themselves. We talked a lot about lists. Has our government ensured that we've gone to all the agencies that fund research themselves? As you listed off some of the areas, I thought particularly of Genome Canada. Have we ensured that all of those agencies are also aware of our concerns?
