Thank you, Mr. Vigneault.
You're well informed. Yes, that was a quote from Mike Burgess, head of the Australian Security Intelligence Organization.
The federal government announced last February that it was going to draw up a list of high-risk institutions. Eight months later, we are still waiting for that list. I asked the minister about this last Monday, as well as the people who were here today. Witnesses come and go, the committee keeps on holding meetings, and everyone expresses their concerns, but the delay in publishing this list creates uncertainty for applicants and for the protection of Canadian research.
Why do you think that list hasn't been published yet? Do you work with international partners that have such lists?
