Electric Autonomy: Recently it was announced that VoltaXplore is now involved in Project Arrow to supply batteries for the car. Tell me a little bit about why VoltaXplore — a new joint venture between Martinrea and NanoXplore — is a good fit and what securing that battery manufacturer means in terms of achieving the goal to make a nose-to-tail, made-in-Canada car?
Flavio Volpe: Obviously, the APMA have a long relationship with Martinrea and we really liked what NanoXplore stood for and they are joint venture partners now. We humbly think that enhancements on a lithium base is where the industry is headed and the JV — VoltaXplore — we like the science. One of the things that I think we have as a responsibility in this project is to bet on our own. And so we’ve bet on Martinrea, we bet on NanoXplore and we chose VoltaXplore. Our timing lines up well with their product development.
