Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I have a question for Professor Collins. Just in March you had a paper published, which you co-wrote, entitled “If Only Warships Grew on Trees: The Complexities of Off-the-Shelf Defence Procurement”. Bonus points, by the way, for the creativity of the title of that report. In that report, you state, “As tempting as it is to believe that there is a straightforward solution to Canada's perennial defence procurement woes, caution on an OTS-based model is warranted.” Can you speak about why there is a need to be cautious about off-the-shelf procurement solutions?
