Thank you.
I want to go on now to comments made by my colleague MP McKay.
I had the opportunity in 2016 to visit NORAD as part of the national defence committee. I spent the first four years of my first mandate on the national defence committee. Can you talk a bit about that important relationship with respect to NORAD? We know that the North Warning System is looking at an upgrade. Canada is in a search for fighter jet replacements, and we know there are two companies that are in the running in the United States for possible replacements.
Could you could elaborate a little more on the importance of defence, our continental defence, and also on the importance of looking at that from a holistic point of view with the relationship with the United States?
