Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Criticizing us for talking too much about China when it comes to Canada's Indo-Pacific strategy is like criticizing the Liberal government for talking too much about the United States when it comes to renewing the Canada-United States-Mexico Agreement by saying that it includes Mexico. I think it just makes sense.
Mr. Ostwald, you talked about semiconductors. Let's say that Taiwan were taken over by a Chinese military action tomorrow morning. It is likely; we've been talking about such an action for a long time. What would be the result of such a Chinese offensive on Taiwan if all Taiwanese semiconductor production fell into the hands of the current regime in Beijing? Wouldn't that be an absolute global catastrophe?
