Thank you, Ambassador.

My next question is about the January 2023 visit to Canada by Prime Minister Fumio Kishida.

During that time, he spoke numerous times about the need for the clean energy transition, but he also talked about Canada as a safe supply source of LNG, or liquefied natural gas. At the time, the Prime Minister of this country said there was no business case for it.

I notice there is no LNG agreement signed with the Government of Japan. Where did Japan get its sources of LNG that it needed to import?
