Yes, I think it's extremely important. We have national security, which I see as the hard security. Then we have human security, which I think is often equated to sovereignty.
To me, sovereignty is seeing strong, vibrant communities. No one will ever question whether the Strait of Georgia between Vancouver Island and the mainland is international waters. It's built up and there are communities and people there. It's important that we do that, but in the territories we have a long way to go. There's a lot of trauma in the territories, a lot of poverty, underinvestment in basic infrastructure and an inability for residents to access basic health care. That's really what we focus on: creating economic opportunities, so infrastructure investment is very necessary, and complementary to that is the investment in the human security aspects.
