Thank you very much. I really appreciate that.

Thank you so much, Dr. Barnard, Dr. Jackie Dawson and Dr. Normand Voyer, for your testimony and participation in our study on science and research in Canada's Arctic in relation to climate change. It was a most fascinating session. You may submit additional information through the clerk, and please see the clerk for any questions.

Given that we ran a bit over time, for the things I was going to discuss briefly, we will send out an email. That's just to give you a heads-up for things that the committee needs to think of going forward.
