Thank you, Mr. Chair.

My first question is for Ms. Clifford.

Ms. Clifford, regarding the concentration of funding going to a small number of universities, the Canadian Institutes for Health Research are the least egalitarian, with 90% of funding going to the 15 largest universities in Canada.

How can we enable new universities to establish health research centres with this being the situation?
