Canada has had a wonderful rapport in the region since General MacKenzie was leading the forces, and his role in making peace in the region is significant. That legacy's still there, but we don't have the same influence due to the changes that are taking place and the aggressiveness of players such as Russia and China.
One thing Canada has is energy. We know LNG could be an item in our hand to have influence in the region in the meantime, to compete with the Russian supply and make their position there uncomfortable. I know you've written about that somewhere. Due to the lack of time, I would appreciate it if you could submit those statements or that research to the committee. It would be great to add them to the report.
I have a minute and a half left. Can you comment on this, and then we'll go from there?
