Thank you, Mr. Chair, and thank you both for being here.
First of all, I just want to say that the Canadian Forces, at least in the last couple of years, is exceeding its recruiting objectives, which does present a training challenge, and attrition has decreased.
Professor, you talked about the defence of Canada and aid to the civil power operations coming before deployments to do whatever. Is it not fair to say that aid to the civil power situations can come up very rapidly, and you may not be able to give precedence to that if you're already deployed somewhere?
