Mr. Dion, as far as my comments are concerned, I would simply like to remind you that we do indeed maintain an excellent and strong relationship with the United Arab Emirates on many fronts. Moreover, this is quite understandable, given that the UAE is an important partner for us.
In addition, as my colleague mentioned, we are not going to be commenting on the operational aspects. However, suffice it to say that when we discuss matters on behalf of Canada, we consider Canada's interests. However, under the circumstances, we felt that the offer made to Canada was not in the best interest of Canadians.
