Madam Chair, I would like to wish all the members of the committee, as well as the scientific community that listens to us attentively, a happy holiday season. We are thinking of them and we wish them quality time with their families and loved ones.
I would like to thank all the people who make the work of this committee possible, namely the analysts, clerks, interpreters, and all the technicians. I thank them for their excellent work and for enabling us to advance science in Canada.
