Thank you for the question. We have an exhibit for a text box about the Canadian Armed Forces. There are two aspects, of course. We're drawing on them for assistance in dealing with emergencies such as fires and so on, which was beyond their normal work. With the 2025 budget earmarking over $80 billion to rebuild, rearm and reinvest, this presents a future opportunity for national defence to invest in prevention and actions to enhance climate resilience, including the protection of its assets such as buildings and barracks, to your point.
There's an opportunity there. It would be a shame if the money goes out too quickly before the data is available to build in a resilient way. The whole point of that part of our report is to look before you leap. This is a big leap in terms of $80 billion, so don't build things that will then get washed away several years later, simply because you didn't have the mapping available and just went ahead and built something without that knowledge.
Knowledge is very useful. Good data is useful, and that's been a theme throughout today's deliberations. The more we can plan for the future Canada, which is a warmer Canada with different precipitation patterns and different fluvial conditions than we have now, the more likely we will avoid disasters rather than just respond to them.
