We have, of course, infrastructure that has been developed over decades and decades of R and D at the National Research Council, so much of our current infrastructure and the expertise of our engineers, if we want to focus on engineers, actually come from this historical background in areas related to oceans, automotive, aerospace, construction, and also environmental and energy.
Our role is to create a base of expertise. We collaborate with academics to ensure that we're staying at the forefront of our fields, and we are present to work directly with industry or groups within an industry sector in order to understand their current and emerging needs. We have facilities where they can come to do testing in order to advance their own innovations, and we have opportunities to work more collaboratively with them to forge new frontiers of innovation that will increase their competitiveness in the future. It is very much the case that we have a strategic perspective on Canada's manufacturing economy in particular, and our research centres are positioned to support them.
