From what I've heard, the Boeing Super Hornet was ruled out because its safety and information transmission capabilities did not meet Canadian criteria. Yet this aircraft is used by the US Navy. So I have a hard time understanding that this is the real reason. I wonder if there is not something else behind this decision.
Let's talk about something else. In the fall of 2020, about a year and a half ago, I asked your predecessor, Ms. Anand, when Davie Shipbuilding would be recognized as the third shipyard in the national shipbuilding strategy. Fifteen months later, we still have no news.
Can you tell us more today, especially since your mandate letter mentions it?
