I’m not sure I fully understand, Mr. Burgess. I have before me the chief science advisor’s report, entitled, “The Polar Continental Shelf Program and the Rapid Rise of Northern Research”. This report dates back to 2023, which is not that long ago. I will read you an excerpt, quoting the chief science advisor: “Canada has one of the largest territorial claims in the Arctic. It should aspire to be a leader among circumpolar nations in terms of northern research, in much the same way it strives to be a global leader in other disciplines.”
So, are you telling me we’re not getting the truth from the chief science advisor?
