I understand. Thank you very much.
Let's talk about methodology now. As you know, Canada's one and only national security policy came into being almost 20 years ago, in 2004, in the wake of the September 11 attacks. The words "Russia" and "China" do not even appear in the current national security policy. By way of comparison, in the United States, a new national security strategy has been introduced with every change of presidential administration since 1980. This is hardly a recent occurrence.
Mr. Aubertin-Giguère, in your opinion, what signal are we sending to Canada's enemies, as well as to its allies and the population as a whole, by failing to update our national security with a renewed policy that is in line with current events?
