Thank you, Mr. Chair.
We are currently in the design stage for the midshore multi-mission vessel, looking at the requirements with our colleague, Mr. Mes. We have gone out with a request for information last year into the beginning of this year for industry input. This vessel will be approximately 700 tonnes to 900 tonnes, somewhere in there, so a fairly small vessel. That vessel will be capable, we're hoping, of breaking 40 centimetres or more of ice with its icebreaking hull, and doing so in a shallow draft.
