Thank you, Madam Chair.

First and foremost, I would like to thank all the witnesses who are here this evening. It is Thursday evening, for everyone. Thank you very much for being here.

My first question is for Mr. Bell from BioCanRx.

Mr. Bell, you piqued my curiosity about biomanufacturing when you gave the example of insulin. You suggested that insulin could be produced in Canada.

Would be the benefits for Canada of producing our medicines instead of importing them? Would that have an impact on supply?
