Thank you very much for your question, which goes to the heart of the issue we're discussing today.
The current reality is that every country must have a national capability. We've learned that this is essential. Not so long ago, we used to talk about globalization and a world with networks and transfers, but now we see that, in fact, geopolitical borders count for a lot. There's a lot of competition between countries and, unfortunately, there will be winners and losers. It's more and more obvious.
Today, there's no doubt that the best way to move a country forward is through science and research. You can see it everywhere, especially in the world's major countries, which are investing heavily in this area. That's why I'm so afraid for Canada. You have to understand that it's a bit like a garden: to go further, you have to cultivate it all the time. And why is that? Because there's competition between countries, and to carve out a solid, stable place in the world, Canada has to attract and retain talent, and rely on the talent of its people. That takes investment, and I think that's the key. If we don't have the ability to defend ourselves in a context where other countries are threatening us, we will be more fragile, obviously.
