What's the argument for pushing these sites ahead?

Well, I guess the, the real important, uh, factor of getting our pla-- data playbook, uh, out yesterday was just to get some of the facts out there, the facts about, um, the concerns that people have, but really the plan that we wanna do.

And, and our plan, uh, is quite simple.

We want, uh, our data stored on our soil, under our rules, under our terms.

Look, these things are gonna be built.

Your data is already being stored in the US or in China.

Every time you take a photo, uh, store it to the cloud, or every time you send an email, every time you make a financial transaction, that data, like for the last fifty years, has been stored somewhere.

So will you do that?

The execution, the drive of it hasn't quite hit the traction level yet.

I would say, yes, we've had a lot of interest, not only from Ontario companies, but from a company, companies that are all around the world, you know? We, we, um, had missions to 20 different countries last year, uh, and somewhere in the defense sector.

Uh, we had very, very strong success from those.

Uh, and we're probably gonna hit 25 to 30 countries this year.

Uh, I w- as I was saying earlier, nine just in the month of June alone.

Mm-hmm.

So that's a totally achievable goal.

In the auto sector, we've also seen the other side of the coin.

How sustainable is this situation, or are we nearing a breaking point in that manufacturing sector?

Well, it's really interesting.

Last month alone in Ontario, we added 42,400 new jobs.

8,700 were in manufacturing.

Compare that to the United States, population of 350 million.

They added 115,000 jobs in the entire US.

Here we are in Ontario with only 16 million people, and, uh, uh, adding a third of the amount of jobs that the entire US, uh, added.

But isn't the fact that I just pointed out to you about what Japan's ambassador to Canada said really not at all in terms of a- an accelerator? In fact, it's quite the opposite, that they decided not to invest there because of the uncertainty?

How often does it run, or will it be ru- Is it running? Are we up and running?

So it'll be running this summer.

Uh, it'll start.

Um, it's here now.

It's...

You'll see it up and down the highway if you watch.

You'll see it, uh, on a daily basis.

Yeah.
