Thank you, Chair.
Mr. Stoff, or Dr. Stoff—and I apologize if I got your honorific wrong—previous testimony in the committee has suggested that the risks of putting too-strict guardrails or guidelines on publicly funded research, particularly with entities that may cause national security concerns, don't necessarily outweigh the benefits of having a more open research policy in Canada right now.
Do you think that's a parochial viewpoint, given the change in global geopolitics over the last decade?
