We look at this as a commercial operation. We look at how Air Canada flies and the regulatory requirements they undergo. It's all about safety. Our platform is built around safety first. We are the operator. We wish to be the operator when that time comes. We oversee a fleet of drones executing a service. Our technology, our back-end systems software integrates back to Transport Canada, NAV Canada. All these different technologies that we heard about earlier, the transponders, it's a catalyst to putting it all together to create a proper framework. Regulations are lacking today on how you immobilize this technology. The consumer world is a different beast in itself because the accountability aspect is very limited. Who's responsible: the Best Buy who sold the drone, or the individual flying it? There's a whole other level of complexity there. From our perspective, from a commercial standpoint where these applications become key economic drivers for Canada, you need to partner with the right operators who understand what it is. It's a serious business. People's lives are at risk, and you need to address that.
