Thank you, Mr. Nantel. I salute your college's initiatives, particularly the creation of the SONAMI network. We can indeed see that colleges have the capacity to do a lot of research.
I'd like to hear your opinion on how the research funding structure is set up in Canada. Do you think that applied research, which is done more in colleges, is underestimated? Is it given too little value, with the result that current funding programs allow colleges and CEGEPs less access to research funding?
