Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you to our guests for joining us today. My first question will go to Mr. Huebert.

Russia's war against Ukraine now creates new security concerns for Canada's Arctic territory. When asked about the capacity for the F-35s to operate in Arctic conditions, a recent witness told the committee that several other Arctic nations are currently using them for Arctic missions. Do you have any concerns about the F-35's Arctic capacities?
